In This Way Have The Power. Poem by Mishack Mchunu

There is a way
That is both rough and smooth,
That moves you gently and simultaneously cause you a delay.
Is contains sweats and sweets, so hideous, but sometimes pleasing right at the tooth.

There is this power
That calls me out of my sin to a special place of peace,
That guards my thoughts, heart, feelings and my life in every hour
Away from terror and horror of this world, to a divine freedom that shall never cease.

In this way I walk
Presumptuously, though I am shaken but I never fall!
With this power I endure the pain and take advantage of the joy, and about it I talk!
I let my friends know about this great fortune and we journey together, for these riches are for us all


You may be reading this text I wrote, and thinking of what I had in mind
Here is what I had and still have; the way of life and the mighty power of God that is so kind.
