I am a broken man<\/p>\n

Yet also rebuilt<\/p>\n

The process happens<\/p>\n

Daily<\/p>\n

I cry most every day<\/p>\n

And laugh till<\/p>\n

My breath is taken away<\/p>\n

Most every day<\/p>\n

No, not mentally ill,<\/p>\n

Spiritually growing<\/p>\n

On a journey I walk forward<\/p>\n

Never stopping<\/p>\n

Advancing fastest when I<\/p>\n

Kneel<\/p>\n

Getting stronger when<\/p>\n

I rest<\/p>\n

In Him<\/p>\n

Every day on the journey<\/p>\n

Spiritual legs grow<\/p>\n

Stronger<\/p>\n

The pebble that once<\/p>\n

Tripped me<\/p>\n

Is now crushed<\/p>\n

Beneath my feet<\/p>\n

The rock that once blocked<\/p>\n

Is now a stepping stone<\/p>\n

The boulder I could<\/p>\n

Find no way around<\/p>\n

Is now a vantage point<\/p>\n

For insight<\/p>\n

As this journey<\/p>\n

Advances<\/p>\n

I still break<\/p>\n

Most every day<\/p>\n

I still cry<\/p>\n

Most every day<\/p>\n

And every day<\/p>\n

Yes, every day<\/p>\n

I am thankful<\/p>\n

To Him who<\/p>\n

Set me<\/p>\n

On the path<\/p>\n

Who walks beside me<\/p>\n

With every step<\/p>\n

Who is my<\/p>\n

Sustenance<\/p>\n

My peace<\/p>\n

My joy<\/p>\n

My strength<\/p>\n

My teacher<\/p>\n

My hero<\/p>\n

Thank You<\/p>\n

God Almighty<\/p>\n

Thank You<\/p>\n

For first<\/p>\n

Loving me<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
