Wanting to maximize my efforts I sought to explain what I feel about trials and the following was written:
A divine mixture of trials and blessings baked in the oven of mortality will feed your soul. This is the recipe called growth."
-Shanna C. Hugie
Recently I pondered just what it means to "pledge your life" to Heavenly Father and I realized that there are many ways we do that.....
I would pledge my feet to follow
The footpath built for me
By a loving Father
A portal to eternity.
I would pledge to use my hands
To lift another soul
For in service to another
My part is added to the whole.
I would pledge to use my talents
To glorify His name
That another may be kindled
By an eternal flame.
I would pledge to leave my spirit
Open to the growth He sends
To be grateful for my trials
As my deep wound He mends.
I would pledge my ears to listen
To only heaven's voice
So when the adversary beckons
I'll make a better choice.
I would pledge my heart to love
Every being that I see
Never to forget
That I must first love me . . .
Shanna C. Hugie
