You will not be Disappointed

While going through some boxes, I found this poem I wrote to Ben for his birthday last January:

  My Strong One

Your Spirit shines through your Frame

  Honed and simplified, purified

  You wonder what it means

  How long you'll make it

  What the price is of your pain

But your voice goes out all over the Earth

Speaking of God's provision and promise

Of the endurance of faith through adversity

Of blessings despite hardship

  And it makes a difference

While you lay

  And wait

Your dreams wait 

  Sometimes despair?

But God will raise them

  Phoenix dreams

You will not be Disappointed
