Intimidated
Underestimated
Slowly degraded
Mostly frustrated.
Hidden potential undiscovered

slope
Too steep to dig in heels
Too many wrong steps
No t h i n g to hold on to
FLAILING
DROWNING
GOING UNDER
almost gone
A sliver of light
Pierces the darkness
and rests upon
your face.
A hand

waits patiently.
Grasping it;
a realization.
Sufficient strength
only comes with
humility
submission
responsibility
faith
and willingness to accept the strength He offers.
