Poetry

Nothing is lost.
Nothing is broken
   nor unusable.
Goodness thrives because
   Goodness lives
      and is Life.

We are where we're supposed to be
   in a caring hand;
      in a strong Providence.
Be most blessed;
   be like His Son.

Endure much,
   full, and to the end.
As is Hope,
   be steadfast in it.

Rest in the Grace
   of the jealous God.
He desires nothing
   between you and He.

Everything is gain.
Everything restored
   with a purpose.
See Goodness thrive
   for the Life
      that it is.

Endure.
Be ever better
   when you could be bitter.
You are inspiring
   someone watching you.

Do not simply survive.
Overcome.
You inspire me;
   I am wonderfully convicted.

Nothing is lost.
Everything of worth
   is found with Him.
In the counsel of His will
   Goodness ever thrives.
All who are His
   will come to Him
      to His land,
         the Land of Everything.
