Our Life is woven with Adversity <br />And the race is really a marathon, <br />Endurance requires persistence <br />And only the tough keep running on. <br /> <br />What challenge is there in passivity? <br />Empty of excitement and victory- <br />I would rather run battles, scarred to see <br />I'm over my mountains and I've crossed my seas. <br /> <br />So rather than sit in the bench and watch <br />I move on with hope and determination <br />My dreams and hopes are all mine to catch <br />Each step getting closer to my aspirations. <br /> <br />Leveled mountains, parted seas <br />When turmoil comes, there is a way <br />The troubles then may not all cease, <br />But God gives strength for everyday. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />-- <br />'For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future'....
