If you would please pray for me,
if to God you’ll cry,
send the Spartans this, my plea:
“Come, and watch me die.”
I can’t aspire to the day
when three hundred stood alone
but perhaps I can repay
this debt, and thus atone.
Let me die now as I live,
with every desp’rate breath,
and Leonidas, please forgive
my hestiancy in death.
Stranger, say in passing by
that hewing to Spartan law, I lie.
Look for posts on a subject, Bible verse or quotation.
I KEEP IT SHORT & SIMPLE.
Why?
Almost half of American adults read below high school level. God looks at your heart, not your reading skills. Big faith can be built on simple words.
