Dear someone,
hello. if you would listen, or rather, read.
how do you do? if you would bother and sit with me to chat.
i'm pleased to meet you. if you would just HELP me.
hey someone? if you are here..
well, i just am tired.
i need a revelry, a shoulder to lean, help.
someone? i'm calling out.. i'm yelling? do you hear me?
i'm trying.
but i'm weak.
i'm still trying.
going on.
TRYING.
hey someone? on my left? right? front? back?
the sea of crowd pays no attention.
hey someone? i'm not that strong...
i'm already torn in realities of life.. all i ask for is just support.
oh well, it's okay then..
i'll go on my journey... up the hills, down slopes, along pebbled paths,through the thickets of dense forest or swarmy marshes.
At least Dad, you listen?
i know that armour you've bestowed upon me.
it's right in my cupboard.
let me go wear it.
i'll stick close to you. wearing my armour. fighting on.
it's all worth it, when it's all right.
Just me,
Fiona
picking up God's armour, to prepare for the battle.
to fear no death, no dejection. no pain.
to BE completely faithful, humble and persevering.
to run, keep running even if tired.
to know, the shield of faith protects me, the breastplate of righteousness sustains me, the sword of the spirit represents me, the belt of truth strengthens me, my ready feet empowers me,my helmet of salvation saves me.
10Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. 12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.
