The man was bludgeoning through life
Determined to achieve his vision somehow.
With Faith in his heart
Confessing the Word of God with his mouth
He was constantly moving constantly striving
So sure he was as he keeps striding the shut doors
will swing open
Mountains looming in front of him will miraculously disappear
If there was a bridge to be passed a boat will appear
to take him across
Funds he will need will just ooze into his hands
All things are possible to him who believes he would
say.
God in his infinite wisdom
Caught him by the collar
Slow down slow down my boy not so fast there is a lot
you need to learn
And sure enough sickness came his way
This arrested his movements
It was a long slow recovery
A rest from his dreams
His daily routine was rerouted.
New tasks he never had to do before
He had to do now.
"Lord what is this why this halt
You know the long journey I have to go"! he would complain
To keep his focus to keep himself from giving up
He exposed himself to study.
That when he realised why the period of rest came
Philemon 6 Amplified Bible, Classic Edition (AMPC)
6 [And I pray] that the participation in and sharing
of your faith may produce and promote full recognition and appreciation and
understanding and precise knowledge of every good [thing] that is ours in [our
identification with] Christ Jesus [and unto His glory].
Mercy rewrote my life he once said to his friend
It was just all about selfish me all the time
My goals, my dreams, my vision
I would have lost my life in my sickness considering the
load of stress I was drawing to myself by the minute
But now I understand the greater calling of my life
To share the about God‘s Mercy to one and all.
