Promise From Pain

Pain doesn't last forever. Want a twofold recompense? Double for trouble? Follow Jesus.

Predominantly pedaling uphill
Pain promises promotion
Preemptive prayers paid for

Pessimism plucked apart
Pacifiers put away
Alas, purpose presented
Pregnant with possibilities
A present from the Spirit

Pushing into positivism
Proverbs proving propitious
Priceless provision pocketed

Positioned at the Pearly Gates
St. Peter’s pleasant acceptance
Palace in the upper atmosphere
Perpetual placidity
Perfection in His presence


Author's note: Although God can give you things, the 'priceless provision' aforementioned refers not to wealth, nor to anything tangible, but to the Fruit of the Spirit.
