LETTERS TO DESTINY © 2012
In a test and proof of my love,
I will still walk through the valley of shadows,
Where darkness tries to weaken,
And doubts raise their trumpets.
Every step will be challenged,
Every silence, a weight to bear,
But firm in faith and love,
I know I will cross with care.
For the valley is not the destination,
Just part of the path to pursue,
And even in the densest shadows,
There is a light that sees me through.
In the end, I will be who I claimed to be,
Not by conquering fear's dread,
But by remaining true to myself
Even when hope is a secret thread.
My soul will be tested,
But it won't be broken by pain,
For in the love that sustains me,
I will find my worth again.
And so, when the journey ends,
I will be, without a mask, who I am,
The one who, before God and men,
Revealed the truth, a faithful plan.
