Notes About The Poem

 

OF CRUCIFYING PAIN AND HEALING GRACE 

 

The thing about crucifying pain is that it can drive you insane; 

And though we’ve all experienced it, for each it’s not the same:-

 

Yet, we all seem to overlook, imagining the pain of

Christ, hanging on that cross in healing faith:- 

 

Likewise, we tend not to be aware of the pain of helplessness, of those  

Praying for God to come, and heal your pain, and give you a break:-

 

Be faithful in bearing your health-bearing, painful crucifixion; 

Knowing that such nailing pain will lose to healing ascension.

 

Know that what medicines may take lengths of time to heal,

Just ask God immediately to heal you spiritually; enduring how you feel.

 

Yes…yes…yes, vicious pain can come and brutally slap you down,

But God’s healing grace can come–and for a while–keep you around:-

OF CRUCIFYING PAIN AND HEALING GRACE  

The thing about crucifying pain is that it can drive you insane; 
And though we’ve all experienced it, for each it’s not the same:-

Yet, we all seem to overlook, imagining the pain of
Christ,  hanging on that cross in healing faith:- 

Likewise, we tend not to be aware of the pain of helplessness of those
Praying for God to come, and heal your pain, and give you a break:-

Be faithful in bearing your health-bearing, painful crucifixion; 
Knowing that such nailing pain will lose to healing ascension.

Know that what medicines may take lengths of time to heal;
Ask God immediately to heal you spiritually; enduring how you feel.
 
Yes…yes…yes, vicious pain can come and brutally slap you down,
But God’s healing grace can come–and for a while–keep you around:-
