My hope for you is unshaken,
Because I know of what you share;
The suffering has been spoken,
In confidence showing you care.
For I do want you be aware,
The affliction I experienced;
For the burdens of what I share,
The strength that has been evidenced.
It felt like the sentence of death,
But that was to make us rely;
Since God will give us the breath,
That maybe others might deny.
He delivered me from the peril,
Upon Him I have set my hope;
Nourishing food and apparel,
Able to assist how to cope.
You must assist me in your prayer,
So many will give thanks to bless;
Granting me the chance that I share,
That eternal eyes will confess.
For I boast in testimony,
While having a clear conscience;
That some testified as phony,
As they were having no patience.
I behaved with simplicity,
And not using earthly wisdom;
Rather godly sincerity,
By His grace as from His Kingdom.
I am not writing anything,
Other than of what you have read;
So, understand of what I bring,
That my heart, mind, and soul has said.
Hopefully, you should understand,
That on the day of our Lord;
Boast and taking you by His hand,
Because you are in one accord.
You need to experience His grace,
On that day when Jesus returns;
And you are feeling His embrace,
The experience each one yearns.
Was I vacillating to want,
As per the flesh, do I make plans;
To the Lord I am His servant,
As one of His devoted fans.
