SERENITY (Acrostic)

Soundness of mind, body and soul

Elicits peace as humble goal,

Resting upon the word of GOD

Earthen vessels to Heaven trod;

Nearing the time when we shall see

Inside the truths of prophecy,

Turning our eyes toward the prize

Yearning for Home to realize.

Excellent acrostic. You have an amazing way with words that could inspire hope and faith in almost anyone.
