Thought
In climbing steep snow bound slope
With all your effort, faith, and hope
Holding fast with fearless grip
You may still slide, and you may slip.
With aim to reach perfection’s top
Don’t think that you will ever stop.
You may be lost but soon will find,
Perseverance brings determined mind.
Add purity, patience, and fixity of will,
You will progress more, fall less until
At last, the worst of slippage breached,
With grace and courage summit reached.
Prayer
O Lord may Thy will be done. Grant me more perseverance, purity, and patience to reach Your welcoming arms.
