Hope of the Promised Land

Post by watcher »

Hope does not disappoint,
even when the bitter is mixed with the sweet,

although the night goes on,

The Promised Land,
somehow still sings its song.

In spite of pain,
right heals the wrong,

Moses caught his glimpse...
then moved into the eternal Promise.

Love does not falter, does it?

Although stumbling happens on the way,
rising at the end,

Night turns to day,
like Christmas joys unknown,

The Promise fulfilled overcomes,

Each fear we can not say.



Author's Note:

Thoughts after listening in on the conversation between Moses and My2Cents. Sorry for eavesdropping, guys, but I dedicate this one to you both! Merry Christmas! :bluebounce:

Thanks watcher... there is one problem with the above, as far as I am concerned.
At this stage of the game, if I stumble, I will surely fall and remain there.
At this stage of the game, we must always remain vigilant, for even the pick up won't get it.
Promises, poromises....
Best wishes to you and your family for a warm and wonderful Holiday Season.

Thanks My2C!

You have a great Christmas too, although it would be better in person...I'll pray you don't stumble.

P.S.

Actually, I just remembered there's a proverb that says, doesn't it, that if a righteous man fall seven times, he will rise again? Prov. 24:16

that's why I guess we need grace.

Habakkuk 3:2 encouraged me today.
