His Touch Embraced My Soul

I was floating in darkness, searching for the truth Not quite believing what I'd been told in my youth Lotus bud, unable to open in full bloom fearing without light, I would wither in my gloom Then I read the righteousness of God's Holy Word Sentiments within my heart were aroused and stirred I was blossoming like a Lotus in moonlight Saved by contrition, petals unfurled in pure white A flower nurtured by His own merciful hands no more searching; an enlightened one understands the divine glory of God and His clement grace I felt his touch upon my soul as an embrace Spiritual elation rid me of my grief Trusting in His Word nourished my faith and belief December 29th, 2020 Lotus Of My Heart Contest Sponsor: Mystic Rose Rose

"I was floating in darkness, searching for the truth" I love this powerful line, you really started off with a punch. This describes the first half of my life in one line.
