Accomplishment Displaces Exhaustion


My muscles twitch.
For the ache.
They need it.
The ache.
It's how they know.
They were used well.
They were appreciated.
And for that appreciation.
They will grow.
In size and strength.
The ache.
It's encouragement.
For the muscles.
To keep going.
I do not fail them.
And.
They do not fail me.
Thank you Father.
For such a beautiful design.

Today.
I worked.
Hard.
Really hard.
At work.
I was exhausted.
Because of the work.
But.
The glory that my eyes saw.
The end result.
Of all my toils.
All my labor.
Was worth the pain.
Beginning, Middle and Beyond the End.
Such beauty.
In work.
My eyes saw it.
They yearn.
To see it again.
The fruits.
Of my labor.
It's like art.
It draws me in.
The ache.
The toil.
The labor.
The beauty.
The end result.
The Accomplishment.
Displaces.
The Exhaustion.
Lets.
Do it again.
