THE SCAR
The scar that goes with you wherever you go.
The mark of a struggle most people don’t know.
A badge you must wear and carry around
from battles you’ve fought on spiritual ground.
Its presence reminds you of a much harder day.
You’ll make it, no matter what stands in your way.
You are a survivor! You’ve done it before!
Satan carries no power over you any more.
He’s taken his shots, you’re still standing strong.
You laughed in his face and yelled, “Move along!”
The wound is now healed, a scar in its place.
Strength you can draw for challenges you face.
As it quietly fades a little more every day.
You wish it were gone, yet hope it will stay.
The symbol of a journey not chosen to take,
a reminder God’s love will never forsake.
