Comfort of the Holy Spirit

I remember It was the passing on of my father The world stopped I wept till tears blurred my vision It was so intense I fell asleep with a headache Nothing and no one could console me People prayed with and for me My heart pounded so hard with grief I thought I will die myself In the cool of the night In serenity with in coherent musings My friend and comforter Overwhelmed me with love He even led me to the truth I began to understand the mystery of death From this wretched earth to eternal peace and glory A blissful mystery only the spiritually Wealthy can understand Spirit of God full of love we humans can’t understand My first heart break was just like my fathers passing on My heart physically ached My tears where like ice block I wondered if there is anything like true love I meditated on death Hoping I will transit to the world beyond The pain was unbearable I lost trust for mankind Nights, midnights, I cried to sleep I wished I could make the pain vanish Just like removing my jacket I was messed up emotionally Love became sour At that point I could have been recruited by Satan for destruction of souls But Gods spirit restrained me And wrapped me in His everlasting love and comfort The balm of Gilead healed me and took me Through the process of regeneration Oh Holy Spirit Your comfort and love who Can know the depth For you are a generous friend and lover and comforter Thank you Holy Spirit.
