For My Savior

Praise His name always,

in joys and suffering,

no matter the time or days,

long and cold nights or

moments fiery and abbreviated.



I am grateful always,

for lessons learned,

for blessings bestowed,

for awards my growth has earned,

even for moments of doubt.



For beyond the darkness,

beyond the apocryphal seeming

reality of constant distress,

the truth always breaks through;

if we are perfected in love,

we are blessed with His ever goodness.



So shout out praises in blessed times!

Turn to Him even more in duress and strife.

He lifts the pain and sorrow away,

always to give us hope to live another day.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I can do all things through Him who gives me strength.

Just one of the pieces I wrote that kind of gives some folks an insight into my brand of spiritual belief. Not so much religious (though I personally practice my brand of spirituality through a religious schema), but definitely spiritual. And I truly do believe spirituality is a personal endeavor. No one person can validate or invalidate another's spiritual experience.
