Tired Soldier

A tired soldier makes camp for the night
I have done my duty, I have fought the fight
I bandage my wounds and sharpen my sword
I am anxiously waiting for my reward

The dents in my armor and the marks on my shield
The lonlyness i feel out here in the field
Remembering comrades gone and passed on
Sometimes I'm discouraged but still I press on

I look at the stars and think of God's glory
But just where do I fit into the story
I know he has me here for a reason
And I guess he bless me all in due season

I've been in the struggle for so many years
I've given my share of blood sweat and tears
I must keep my faith when I don't understand
Just what is my purpose, what is God's plan

Sometimes I feel my strength is all spent
But a good soldier still gives one hundred percent
So I'll just keep going and pressing my way
Until I see the Father on that glorious day

Found this poem rather late.
Really ejoyed it..
Hope is what keeps me going...everytime I read His words..Hope springs afresh!

May the God of my hope so fill me with all joy and peace in believing that by the power of the Holy Spirit I may abound and be overflowing with hope. Romans 15:13

Hope deferred makes my heart sick, but when my desire is fulfilled, it is a tree of life. Proverbs 13:12 (still waiting and hoping on that one).

God bless.
