What's asked of me

 


I'm asked to have courage,
and so I ask for courage.
I'm told it's up to me
to do my work

It's not a hard thing I am asked,
but it's essential -
to stand true in my faith,
to not be swayed by signs and stories
telling me of failure,
to look to my good for the evidence
of what my life is made of

I am asked to be strong,
but not with a strength I have to fabricate,
I'm asked to be true -
true to the source of my being.
