My Stroke

Life changes---- The Holy Spirit Brought Jesus Christ and His Words to My Remembrance, When There was None...
Sorrows increase , BUT Faith Increased More!
 
Satan roamed around until he saw me, 
set his plan in motion immediately.
I had a stroke with all of it's curse. 
What the evil one did to me was much worse.  
He stole all my Savior's words from my mind. 
My heart full of prayers he did bind.  
No sweet memories to delight my soul, 
No love and laughter to make me whole.
He grasped my dreams to torture my night. 
But through a loop hole, I saw a light. 
I thought of a prayer	I would pray, -- 
The Holy Spirit held my hand to lead the way.
He quickly  opened the door to let me see, 
I was held a prisoner, but, to be set free. 
I asked God the Father in Jesus Name  
what the devil had stolen would He reclaim.. 
God restored to me ALL, that only He can do.
In about two  months, He has bought me through..
HALLELUJAH! PRAISE HIS NAME!

I felt like Simon Peter when this happened because I remembered that Jesus said to him that satan roamed the earth seeking whom he may devour and he wanted Peter. Jesus told him that he had prayed for him that his faith would fail him not... Satan has not changed.. Jesus Christ has not changed either and my life is completely in the hands of the living God.. He is my helper.. The Lord does not fail God Bless You Paul..

Very expressive poem, Edith. It is faith in the Lord that can lead us out of trouble. When we put God by the side we become victim to Satan's evil plans. Let us not be duped! // paul
