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
