Glorious Healing

My answer to a question today.

Someone asked me a question today
“Is God really real, or a joke well played?”
“Of course, He’s real.” What a silly thought.
“With blood and pain your sins He bought.
He created this world with you in mind
To tend His Garden until His time.
He knew your name before your first breath,
Every moment of time from birth till death.”

“But it doesn’t make sense,” he said to me 
“To believe in a thing I’ve never seen.
Words in a book you blindly follow
My friend, I tell you, that’s a big pill to swallow.
Do you have any idea how crazy you sound
Preaching a God that can’t be found.
Am I to believe in Heaven and Hell,
Angels and Demons and the Devil as well.”

He laughed when he said it, I knew he was lost
Suffering inside, but fearing the cost 
He thought there was a bigger price he’d pay
Than asking forgiveness and to simply obey.
The words of the Father written on the scroll 
And acceptance of His Son who died for your soul.
I said to my friend “don’t fight it anymore
You know the truth” and we knelt on the floor.
We prayed for the Father to forgives his sins
To open his heart and let Him in.

My friend rose with tears in his eyes
I didn’t have to ask because I knew why
For I had had that very same feeling
The Spirit of God and His Glorious healing.

'Glorious Healing'
Ted Kniffen,
Ways The Living God speaks.....do we listen?
Twinkling raindrops suspended on leaves.
Birds singing rhapsodies perched on roof eaves.
Clouds like lace suspended in blue firmament heavens.
Then tempest winds bring rumbling thunder and a shaking.
Tiny chipmunk eating from your hand.
Pain of loss. joy of gain.
Reality seen in the day to day.
Whilst we live let it not be said;
"The light of the World appeared and you said nay.?
Bless you muchly.
Kathy
