"He Spoke"
  by Syndel


I was lost in the sea of confusion
But I looked up and said Lord we
Need to talk :

I started thinking of the Bible and his promise to me
The tears started flowing and I was more than weak
I could not see

But I heard ,
I am come a light into the world , that whosoever
Believeth on me should not abide in darkness ( John 12:46 )

So I said , then why do I lay in this pain
Why is my soul drain

I heard ,
He giveth power to the faint ,and to them that
Have no might he increaseth strength ( Isaiah 40:29 )

Where is my comfort

I heard ,
For I will restore health unto thee , and I will
Heal thee of thy wounds said the Lord ( Jeremiah 30:17 )

Not knowing if it was the drugs they filled me with
Or a spiritual rebirth but I saw him ,
And I reached just touch me Lord
Let me live , I know you are keeping me in the mist
I know you will hold me when I fall ,but my I am of flesh
My faith is being tested my trust is beginning to slip
Why and how much more do I have to endure before
You see I can take no more , you said you will not give me
More than I can handle but thy plate is full and my cup runneth over
Thy enemies are all around me and the stench of death looking down on ,me
But please Lord do not take me , I am not ready to go , let this not be the day
You call me home .

He said,
Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine
Own understanding , acknowledge him and he shall direct thy path
( proverbs 3:5,6 )

As he held me wiped my tears and restored my strength
I said
Thank you Lord

In the beginning was the Word...Sister you did this piece well. I have found myself standing on the edge of the end so many times but each day I'm renewed by the beginning...and that is God's Word! Thank you...this was a blessing.
