The Gradual Loosening of the Tongue

So many of us have been through so much in these recent years of covid, its been so hard personally been horrendous with my stammer so difficult not getting out feeling so barred It seemed I was stuck in a rut even when restrictions lifted, words block but continue to seek the Lord for release nothing was coming as I continued to knock When mask wearing was last to go people didn't make out what you say it seemed so difficult to be free crying Lord help me to with you stay Then in April '22, the Lord came down in Ireland on holiday touched my tongue among others there in our hols group felt ease and calm deep in my lungs Since then speaking has been nearly new getting out again to the coffee shop on my own the gradual loosening of my tongue had came blessed be my great God, answers my very groan! (My thoughts on recent personal answered prayer that has turned my life around again by the merciful grace of God.)

At first I thought you were referring to Pentecost, Gordon, till I saw the date and realized that April was too early for that! Glad that your life has been turned round again thanks to faith and prayer. ~ Best regards // paul
