Excellent
Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted
God made it easy for us

Believe!

by jim vecchio

 

These days, we’ve grown too soft

Heroes of old had not our privileges

Existence was cruel and harsh

-

Growing in Truth meant sacrifice

Opposition from family and friends

Seeking shelter from the elements

Pursuing seemingly impossible plans

Enlightening those who would listen

Leading those who believed

-

Openly persecuted by rulers and liars

Fierce brutality suffered for the Cause

-

Jesus showed the way to all

Offended, yet not seeking retribution

He suffered cruelty and death

Now, all we do is believe
