Determined

Sixty feet high atop my tree
Clings one lone leaf tenaciously.
Through raging rain and heavy snow
That tiny leaf will not let go.
I watch it and I wonder why
That it alone remains on high.
I then compare the leaf to me
And Jesus to the towering tree.
I pray that when harsh trials blow
Like the leaf I won’t let go.

Glad you stopped by again. I hope this poem encourages you to cling to God regardless of circumstances. In my book, there is a devotion that goes along with this topic.
Have a blessed week. I’ll be posting again soon.
