I Will Not !

by Matthew Taylor

I won't look over my shoulder,
though it gets tougher as I get older.
I won't listen for footsteps of my enemies,
who seek to destroy me,
I refuse to lose!
I will never surrender, I've come too far!
My weapons are foolproof, the promises sealed by blood.
I am upon a rock, though sharks a plenty swim beneath,
my fear is but a vapor, my faith intercedes.
My Savoir supplies my every need.
Never foresaken or abandoned,
ramsomed many times,
I will not be defeated!
I won't back down!
Life releases fury and the war is endless,
My manual for life reminds me each day..
I am victorious, my Lord is glorious!
not by my strength, but His..
made perfect in my hour of weakness.
I will not look back,ever..
and I wil dwell in the House of the Lord forever!

Author's Note: after 34 years secure in the promises of God Almighty, I still need a pep talk now and then, this is me preaching to myself, reminding me of all that is mine, hallelujah! Eph.1:18* please read.
