I love it when we have deep discussions
And there seems to be no resolve
But, through prayer there is no problem
Given to God He cannot solve.
When we have these heated discussions
And the battle seems all uphill
Regardless of what you or I think
The final say so must be His will.
There is a great purpose ahead of us
And you are a chosen vessel for this great mission
You and I had no choice in the matter
This was God and God alone’s decision.
So, gird up the loins of your mind
Prepare for battle to fight what is wrong
The enemy is armed to the teeth, so be ready
Be watchful, be vigilant, be strong.
Be fearless with great determination
Do not deviate from this mission nor be swayed
Even though the road at times will be difficult
God’s purpose must not be delayed.
So, my darling, my queen, my angel
We were chosen on the devil’s head to trod
The enemy has already been defeated
By our Commander, Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

No weapon formed against us will prosper
Every tongue that rises in judgement, we condemn
This is the heritage of the servants of Jesus
For the victory is only found IN HIM.
So, arm yourself for this battle
Be undaunting, be very courageous, fear none
Be relentless in your attack of the enemy
For the battle HAS ALREADY BEEN WON!

Author’s Bio
Karen Bontrager helps 16-24-year-old men, and fellas, 25+ stuck there due to complex trauma, make permanent shifts in their behavior from merely surviving in life to thriving through transparent coaching/counseling in one-on-one conversations and in group work, and through topic sensitive trauma-informed workshops in a program called, “From Crisis to Courage.” With this ontological approach, I partner with my clients to discover their essence, (aka highest and best self) by powerfully reflecting and listening to them. My clients quickly learn how to generate self-awareness and to voice their own relationship needs in a clear, constructive way by learning key coaching techniques/evidenced based counseling approaches/tools to work past their traumatic events and addictions to move forward. The clients are then equipped to develop healthy relationships with key relationships: parents/siblings/friends, and with intimate dating partners because they have learned how to proactively use their voice.
She does a weekly Relationships Matter Monday LI article/poem/commentary for 16-24-year-old men and fellas, 25+, stuck there due to trauma, is a frequent contributor here, and has a bi-monthly podcast called Crisis to Courage to give gentlemen an honorable platform for learning how to use their voices in a way which gets respected, instead of turning to the old standbys: anger, isolation, and numbing behavior, so they can be the men they were made, formed, and created to be.

Are you a man, 16-24, or more mature, 25+ which feels stuck mentally, and is not able to move forward due to a traumatic past, which shows up as anger, isolation, or various numbing behaviors, and needs support? Or, do you feel something gets in the way emotionally from you loving self, others, or having the life of your dreams, but are not sure what? Please DM me on Linked In for an opportunity to talk.??
