Shadows into Light #409

Shadows into Light In the tapestry of life, woven tight, Fear cloaks the soul in the dead of night. Masquerading, a thief in false attire, Whispers of dread, igniting fear’s fire. Yet within, a beacon burns so clear, A conscience pure, no shadow near. Facts and truth, like lanterns bright, Dispel the dark, bring fears to light. Not a spirit of fear, but power we hold, Love and self-discipline, virtues bold. A divine endowment, our shield and sword, Treading paths where angels have soared. Over serpents and scorpions, we claim our ground, In the face of the enemy, we are not bound. Fear, a moment fleeting, a whisper in the wind, Our destiny awaits, not by fear pinned. Catch the foxes, those fears that lurk, Before they ravage, in darkness work. The Son of Man, no place to rest, Yet in purpose, found His quest. So, let us step from shadows into light, With clarity and purpose, our hearts ignite. Facing fear, a journey we embrace, Towards our true potential, we race. A beacon for others, in darkness lost, Our paths illuminated, no matter the cost. From fear to empowerment, our spirits soar, In the light of truth, forevermore. Written by Steven G.
