Mighty


Linking up with Lisa-Jo and Five Minute Friday.

Today's word: Mighty
Five minutes. No edits. Just words as they spill out.

GO

mighty
the lure of compromise
when desiring a particular result

mighty 
the temptation to corner-cut
when the way proves steep and long

mighty 
the allure of gossip
when another has slipped and fallen

mighty 
the hold of jealousy
when others prosper at our expense


but 

mightier still can be...

the still small voice 
that paves a path of integrity

the way of wisdom
as she beckons us to follow close behind

the sound of grace
that passes up judgment and erases shame 

the wounded brow
that wears thorns that lead to freedom

STOP

  1. "The "still small voice," "the way of wisdom," "the sound of grace," "the wounded brow
    that wears thorns that lead to freedom" ... Thanks for these reminders, Niki. Visiting from Five Minute Friday. Blessings.
