An affirmation for the warrior who rests

The promise of power
is the promise always kept.

The promise of power
is made to the warrior who rests.

All things come
to the warrior who rests.

I am the warrior empowered.

I am the warrior who rests.
I am the warrior proactive.

a victory without glory or reward.

All things come
to the warrior who rests.

And all things become nothing
for the warrior who waits.

The promise of power
is the promise always kept.
