Tempered Steel

That’s me!

I am the steel that God

Has spent my life tempering!

The heated act of going through

Traumas and lost relationships

The cooling down as I attend

The counselling to process it

The people He put in my life

To temper those wounds

And to bathe me in prayer

Was the balm my soul needed

Only to brace as the next

Obstacles came my way

So I geared up ready for more

Refining of my character

As I could see my Lord working

In my life to mold me

To strengthen my endurance

To keep me forging ahead

I’ll never be fully tempered

Till I reach my final home

But I’m ok if God keeps working

To shape me to His will

About the Creator

Linda Bromley

Just one of many creative outlets for me has been books! My whole life I’ve loved them and it’s so easy to make the jump to writing.

Recently I completed a poetry challenge and now, looking for more excuses to write, I’ve found myself here!
