Faithful

Jesus healed a man who called out for help He had nothing else to do But to have faith Because he could not do anything for himself He learned to accept who he was And he learned to accept the things that he was going through With just a tiny winy bit of faith and about a half of a clue He cried out silently: No Matter what I'm going through Even with a half of clue But GOD I'm still faithful in you Then he cried out loudly: AS A SICK MAN I STAND BEFORE YOU CRYING OUT FOR HELP I'VE TRYED DOING THINGS MY WAY NOTHING WORKED, SO I HAD TO DEPEND SOMEONE ELSE MOMMA'S GONE, DADDY'S GONE MY WIFE AND KIDS PRAY, BUT THAT WASN'T ENOUGH AND I WASN'T CRAZY OR BOLD ENOUGH TO ASK GOD WHY IN THE WORLD, ARE YOU TAKING ME THREW SO, MUCH STUFF I HAVE DIABETES, AND HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE SHOULDN'T THAT BE ENOUGH? He said calmly: Son out of all of the things in the world These are the 2 things that you mention You could have been Homeless, Strung out, Dead or in Prison And with you knowing all of that I still couldn't get all of your attention He said: I woke you up a 5:13 am I showed you JOB, and JOHN 5:13 Because I needed you to learn a very valuable lesson From the both of them At first I used you wife to pray, but somehow I knew that you would not what to hear it So I used her in the name of the father Then I used Job, and John As the sons of the Holy Spirit He said: No matter what you going through I'll never turn my back on you Because my son I'm still faithful to you
