Contemplation

Margaret V.Doran

Again and again
I face my own inadequacy
What then?
Because I am weak
should I end my existence?
NO!
It is by God’s will
that I am here
He has a plan for me
that He is able to complete
He only asks that I have FAITH
nothing more.
Christ set the example
for pain and suffering
I am not perfect
nor am I strong
as He was
and God has not asked
as much of me
only to remain faithful
only to not harm His child
only to have patience
for Him to work His will
in my life.



For He is faithful to complete the good work that He has begun in you.
