Last Night I Cried

From the bottom of my very soul my heart broke last night Still my stride today, somehow is hopeful and light ~~~~ No one but You, Sweet Jesus knows what You brought me through How I clung to You and pleaded for remembrance ...that Your Precious Blood was for me too! ~~~~ This mountain is too rugged to climb... I weepingly complained...I can't! I want this cup removed I moaned... Dear God....I'm spent! ~~~~ Then from the hallow of Your hands from Your all encompassing Spirit and depth... came Your miraculous peace ...I slept ~~~~ No one I meet can tell not even those that know me well Not even a hint of the battle forged is seen For Thou has enabled me...upon You I lean ~~~~ You are with me...every step of the way You are on my every side No one knows that... Last night...I cried Ps 119:169-170, Ps 51:17, Ps 30:5 copyright; jmsbell/2005

Beautiful love. Words of a handmaiden with oil in her lamp. Beautiful
