The Beautiful Battle
Carcasses of the enemy lie at my feet.
This battle has been long and my victories have been sweet.
Areas I have grown are nested in my mind.
I have more power, more courage, more faith in my Divine.
I'm reminded of previous attacks that Jesus has seen me through.
He tells me to live life one day at a time and to keep His plan in full view.
This battle has been beautiful though I fail to admit
that Jesus has improved me exponentially despite my pleas for the tests to quit.
Many times, I've been disobedient and focused recklessly
on the carnage of the battle, rather than the victory.
Yet He has kept me, He has not let me go.
My mind continues to focus on Him, my growth is present though slow.
The beautiful battles God fights for me
has demonstrated His love, power and sovereignty.
