Stand Your Ground!

Stand your ground! Don’t let the rattling chains and moans and wails intimidate your upright stance; you have every right to be here, every right to be seen, known, loved. If they all jump off a bridge, how will you safeguard your foothold? May the truth of Whose you are ground you, root you in…

Stand your ground!

Don’t let the rattling chains

and moans and wails

intimidate your upright stance;

you have every right to be here,

every right to be

seen,

known,

loved.

If they all jump off a bridge,

how will you safeguard your foothold?

May the truth of Whose you are

ground you,

root you in hope,

provide backbone to your

bravado,

turn tears to triumph!

      Thank you Kathleen! You sure change up your blog often – I was just thinking that mine has been the same for 6 months already – maybe I should look at ways to switch things up a bit?
