Quiescent Blades: Embracing Peace

There is always a battle that needs attending, 
and the scabbard remains empty, 
echoes of past struggles whisper in the wind, 
each one a memory of pain and strife.

The fields lay barren, yet the war drums sound, 
calling for warriors to rise once more, 
but the sword that once gleamed with purpose, 
now rests untouched, its blade dulled by time.

In the silence of the night, under a canopy of stars, 
we ponder the weight of battles fought and lost, 
wondering if the fight is still worth the scars, 
if the victory is ever worth the cost.

The heart grows weary, the spirit tired, 
and the scabbard remains empty, 
a silent testament to the toll of endless wars, 
a reminder that sometimes, to lay down arms is the greatest battle won.

For peace is a rare and precious thing, 
a fragile truce between the chaos within, 
and in the stillness of an unworn blade, 
we find the strength to heal, to begin again.

There is always a battle that needs attending, 
but sometimes, the bravest act of all, 
is to let the scabbard remain empty, 
to choose the path of peace, and stand tall.

Anchored in Peace

In the tumultuous seas of life, where worries and fears abound,
Bills and expenses, relentless waves,
Tossing me to and fro, a tempest in my soul,
Cares of life and concerns, burdens heavy,
Rocking my boat, shaking my peace.

In the midst of chaos, my heart cries out,
Overwhelmed by the weight of it all,
The storm rages, and I feel small,
Lost in the sea of life’s demands.

But then, a whisper, a gentle reminder,
The Peace Keeper is in my boat,
His presence, a calming peace,
His love, a beacon in the night.

He stands by me, unshaken, unwavering,
His voice speaks peace to my troubled heart,
“Be still,” He says, “I am with you,
In every storm, I am your peace.”

With Him, I find strength to endure,
Peace in the midst of despair,
For His grace is sufficient, His power, unmatched,
In His embrace, I find rest.

No wave too high, no burden too great,
For the Peace Keeper is with me, guiding my way,
Through the storms of life, I am secure,
Anchored in His love, forever at peace.

Phoenix Ascendant

Battling my own demons as life eats me alive,
Each day, a struggle, a test of will,
Shadows loom large, whispers of doubt,
Yet, I press on, searching for light.

In the chaos, I seek a glimmer of hope,
A spark of faith to ignite my soul,
Strength in vulnerability, courage in tears,
Finding resilience in the depths of despair.

Life’s trials may weigh heavy on my heart,
But within me lies a spirit unbroken,
For every fall, there’s a rise,
A testament to the power within.

Through the storm, I’ll find my way,
Guided by an inner compass,
With every battle, I grow stronger,
Emerging from the ashes, reborn.

Phoenix ascendant, soaring high, 
From the embers, I touch the sky.

Orchids of Sadness – Part 2

As I linger in this garden of despair,
I notice a shift, a subtle change,
a ray of sunlight piercing through the gloom,
illuminating the orchids with a gentle warmth.

New buds appear, timid yet resilient,
their colors vibrant against the backdrop of sorrow.
These are not blooms of pain, but of hope,
each petal a whisper of promise, each stem a testament to strength.

I nurture them, these fragile new blossoms,
with tender care and newfound faith.
The waters of anxiety begin to recede,
replaced by streams of grace and renewal.

The thorns still prick, but they no longer wound,
for I’ve learned to handle them with wisdom.
I see beyond the pain, to the beauty that lies within,
and I understand that both joy and sorrow are intertwined in the garden of my heart.

As the orchids of sadness slowly fade,
their petals falling like memories,
new flowers take their place,
symbols of resilience, of hope, of healing.

In this ever-changing garden,
I find solace, a quiet strength.
For I know that even in the darkest moments,
there is the potential for light, for growth, for peace.

Faith Tested: A Journey of Trust

When faith is put to the test,
It’s like walking on a tightrope,
Balancing between doubt and belief,
A fragile dance of trust and uncertainty.

In the silence of the night,
When prayers seem to echo back,
And the answers are nowhere in sight,
Faith becomes a quiet, steadfast hope.

It’s in the moments of deepest darkness,
When the world seems to crumble,
That faith shines brightest,
A beacon of light in the midst of the storm.

For faith is not blind,
But a choice to see beyond,
To trust in the unseen,
And believe in the impossible.

So when faith is put to the test,
It’s not about the outcome,
But the journey of the soul,
Growing stronger, deeper, and more whole.

Strength in Frailty: A Psalm of Hope

In the frailty of my flesh,
In the fickleness of my heart,
God’s strength shines bright,
A beacon in the dark.

When weariness weighs heavy,
And burdens seem too great,
God’s hand lifts me up,
And carries me to a better state.

My portion, my refuge,
In Him, I find my rest,
God is my strength,
In Him, I am truly blessed.

“My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.” Psalm 73:26

It is God who sustains me, who gives me the strength to face each day. Despite the frailty of my flesh and the fickleness of my heart, God remains constant. He is my strength, my refuge, my portion forever.
