Holding Our Ground

Holding Our Ground


(c) By: Sharon Slaton Howell



This being a soldier of Christ

is not all charging up the hill,

many of us have found.

At times there is nothing

one can do but be still,

hold the ground gained,

until incoming fire has waned;

be like trees in their majestic-ness

that just stand there and take it.

Does not the Bible say,

"Hold that fast which thou hast,

that no man take thy crown?"

(Revelation 3:11)


Doing this, you and I

are doing much.
