When I was at the bottom Lord you pulled me to the top. When I didn't have the will to fight you begged me not to stop. And now that I am back on top I wont go down again, for with you I know how to fight and I fight now Lord to win. Lord, you know I'm new at this but I think that you can see, that with you as my coach I'll bring home a victory. I want to make you proud Lord everytime I fight and I will stay in training until I get it right. And when the time comes Lord to fight that last big fight I'll be so proud just knowing that you Lord coached me right! ~*~ ^i^ ~*~ Love is such a lonely art, and death is but a taste. Minds are merely instruments that often go to waste! ~*~ ^i^ ~*~ [This message has been edited by Echo Rhayne (edited 01-20-2000).] |

Melanie, You've posted another fine-positive-victory breathing poem which honors Christ, and your dependence on Him. I think the Word you actually meant to use was "COACH." But still there is a possible double meaning here--as we Rest in Him--He can & will lead us on to Victory! Thanks for the boost! "Our Creativity points to a Higher Creator--we couldn't have just happened, and for what ability we may possess--to God be the glory." -dlw- |

Melanie, I can see at this point in time you are on the right track and taking comfort in the strength of our Lord. It makes my heart glad to see the positive reflection you have been portraying in your poetry. May God's eternal light always shine for you and give you peace. |

what a wonderful way of looking at it Melanie - He's our coach and will teach us the techniques we need to be armed for every battle - and indeed you are on top, and by the sounds of it you're planning on staying there - way to go girl! Praise God eh for lifting us up in His victorious right hand. Loved this poem Echo! Bless you. |
