Four

Plus four, minus four
Two months to creep up
Four days to plummet down
Hope sags

No rest, constant alertness
Procrastination is not a word
Carpe diem or nothing
No margin for error

Just once to be normal
The rope so thin, dare not stray
Perfection desired but humanness wins
Just be content. Content. CONTENT.

Frail flesh, strong heart
Jaw set, the thorn in
Press on, press on
By grace alone, by Him alone

I see a roadblock, but He sees the whole race.
