Word for 2020 Resilient

Word for 2020
Resilient

A new season of running the race
In the past fear setting the pace
asking for a word for today
Lord speak to my heart, dispel all dismay
Whisper released ..."Resilient"
Really Lord? My heart pushing back in resistance
Tough, stretched, able to recover from adversity?
Lord does this mean pain, suffering and infirmity?
Leaning in guardedly
I begin to trust even if imperfectly
" I will increase your capacity"
"I am your stamina, your staying power"
"Your endurance for every hour"
The days now beginning and end in awe and amazement
Squashing of the self talk and abasement
He carries me through holding my hand
Ever lifting my gaze invited into" In Christ I can!"
