Worthy To Be Praised

When I was once broken in spirit and full of sorrow
I had no thoughts of sunshine for my tomorrow
I remember those lonely and cold days and night
After nine years of a beaten body and broken spirit; but, at the end of this darkness I seen light
It was no more living in fear and despair 
Father God no matter what I was going through I knew you were here
Your words promised me, “That you will never leave me or forsake me”
For three years I’ve been totally healed and free 
In all those years of a nightmare not once did I quit and complain
I just kept my faith and constantly called on the Lord’s name
You said if my faith was small as a mustard seed
You would be there to heal me and supply all my needs
After being on dialysis for so long it taught me how to believe and fight
See when you know and trust in Jesus there is healing as a reward for your plight 
January 10, 2015, it has been three glorious years and five blessed days
My sweet and loving Jesus your, “WORTHY TO BE PRAISED!”
