God's Soldier

Your challenges aren’t meant to punish, to judge, or make you feel less.

Your challenges are badges of honor that convey and express.

They express your courage and love. They convey your sacrifice.

Thank you for your service, God’s soldier that didn’t think twice.

Your courage and love are stronger. You carry what others can’t bear.

Others too blind to see their own loads you burden and share.

Your challenges aren’t meant to exclude, to shame or to isolate.

Your challenges are stars in your sky that show and communicate.

They communicate your compassion. They show your sacrifice.

Thank you for your service, God’s soldier that didn’t think twice.

Your courage and love are stronger. You carry what others can’t bear.

Others too blind to see their own loads you burden and share.
