“PATIENT NOT COMPLACENT”

Be patient and your time will come.

Not complacent because you may have to all of a sudden run.

A lot of races were lost because someone jumped the gun.

You just have to compete and winners get it done.

Showing courage through dim times will make others stunned,

But if you just keep going, then you will find the sun.

In the darkness is where you should run the hardest.

In a class full of people you should try to be the smartest and the sharpest,

If you get in a comfort zone, then you just might miss the harvest.

As we all know patiently waiting can bring jitters and nerves,

But this is your moment and you own it…it’s what you deserve.

Moral: Right now, you are where God wants you to be and you will know when he calls you to move!
