Beautiful Patience

Beautiful patience. I wait patiently as uncertain waves hit my conscience.

Wave after wave, they batter my ship as I ascend to a higher level, trying not to slip.

Will I sink? Will I fail? I must be careful in the direction that I steer.

Becoming a prisoner of my own vessel is something that I fear.

Sailing through this distracting life, I look through the spyglass; my vision is clear.

Out in the distance, there is something I want. This will take a lot of persistence, but I must have patience.

I will endure. I will endure beautifully.

Patiently, I wait, as I know my Lord has never forsaken me.

For He is enough for me and will take care of me.
