Iron and Iron


Iron sharpens iron,
and one man sharpens another.
Proverbs 27:17

God knows I’m dull
blunted by my blindness
ignorant of wisdom
searching for direction
So He put me
in Christian community

My friends take the off the rust
they sharpen me
speak Truth to me
show me the Way
so my Life is bettered
through being together

And God uses me
to help them grow
refine their thinking
help them see direction
comfort in their pain
help them find their way

Ancient warriors honed their swords
together — iron and iron
bringing edges to dull weapons
strengthening each other
to gain advantage and defeat
the enemy put on retreat

Like those soldiers
fighters together
sharpen each other
stand as brothers
better together
grateful forever
