Sisters In Christ
-rey
Spirit awakens, a relationship is born
Underneath the differences, a common dawn
Zooming past the chaos of a troubled world
Each one a flower blooming amongst discord
Touched by my hand I am blessed!
Touching my heart, twice over, I'm blessed!
Endeared to me, endeared to the Spirit
Kindhearted souls of service and discipleship
Abounding in love they share their gifts
Re-echoing the voice of He who declared them fit.
Ensnaring the demons of the world they march on
Noble and holy warriors of the Son!
Death has no grip
All evil has no voice
Resounding faith, their shield and armor
Love is their sword.
Envied by the wicked
Nitpicked by the fallen
Each one challenged by darkness
And yet not one remains beaten.
Smiles of peace are found on their lips
Hell freezes over at their words of prayer
Life regenerates with their healing touch
Every eye turns to God as they let loose their laughter
Young at heart yet mature in Spirit
Maidens handpicked to serve this world we live in
All called and instructed to prepare the way
Readying the path for His glorious day
I have had the privilege to have been in their presence
Sisters in Christ, I treasure them all
Sisters in the Spirit have been since they answered His call.
A new, cleansing fire that swept my conscience
Each one a source of strength and inspiration
Reminding my battered soul that I too am called.
I pause and I pray. Glorified shall you be for such creations, Father almighty!
Keep them forever close to your heart, and please ensure their safety,
And I thank you for sending them my way during my days of frailty. Amen.
