Being Alive

Being Alive Miracle Man 1/1/2025 On January first of two thousand seventeen, God reclaimed me from death’s certain throes. Three days prior it was “The Widow Maker’s” scene, with Sudden Cardiac Arrest both lay apposed. Now, I celebrate New Years Day for being alive, I was only the vessel that brought glory to HIM. Memory of twenty three hospital days I revive, drinking from a cup always filled to the brim. The doctors had said they couldn’t explain it, that a miracle took place in my life that day. So with ink this day my testimony I transmit, now eight years later my mind chooses to replay. First the “Widow Maker” then Sudden Cardiac Arrest, Each New Years Day I celebrate life and this test.
