Winds lamming the sapling,
Hail like slingshot,
The frost imposing its grasp on the soil,
Survivors flourish;
Tribulation works endurance.
Roots strengthened, trunk resilient,
The tree grows, drinking
Sun, air and water,
Fresh weathers and seasons;
Endurance works experience.
Greenness fringes the tree,
Blossoms pink or white out,
Life fruits and seeds;
Experience works hope.
Wonderful poetry, with the same message that James left.
ReplyDeleteDavid,
ReplyDeleteI love the overall story of Paul. It truly does take a look at the most difficult life transformed in an instant. Truly God knows exactly what He is doing.
