I keep a daily journal of “take-aways” from my devotional readings. This poem was crafted from some of my February entries.

Sitting alone and hopeless
Our Lord never deserts us
He awakens mind and soul
In His Spirit, words bring trust
Turning to God, always there
His footprints walking ahead
Through life’s hefty challenges
Our Lord brings our daily bread
Reading from His Holy Word
Always giving thanks and praise
Marvelous things, God has done
Our hope alive and ablaze
Growing in faith, from our woes
Therefore, pray . . . listen . . . follow
Righteous life following Christ
Savior’s hope, never hollow
Facing temptation each day
Alignment with Son of God
Blood and body shed for us
Boldly fleeing evil’s fraud

From Galatians 6:1-2: “My friends, if anyone is detected in a transgression, you who have received the Spirit should restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness. Take care that you yourselves are not tempted. Bear one another’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.”

Yes, Richard, this is a great reminder. The ONLY way to “Face temptation each day” is to be in “Alignment with Son of God.” Beautiful poem. You and I both do “take-aways” from our daily devotionals. I find them ti be great sources of inspiration, too.
