"Without Hope"

       "Without Hope"

You are asking me...not to even hope
or believe in miracles, let alone wish to live.
For all of these things come from God;
and the blessings that He gives.

If I cannot hope to see your face...
receive forgiveness, or even hear your voice;
you are asking me...to give up hope...
to not fight this illness, if I have a choice.

Must you ask...that to myself I lie,
For without His forgiveness, what good am I.

I had seizures for 10 years, they could not
find the cause.  Instead of doing medical things
I finally let Jesus talk to my heart.
I chose Jesus and being prayed for.
I just was worn out with tests,
new hospitals, new doctors et.
My husband wanted the doctors to
keep experimenting  on me.  I was prayed for
and was healed instantly.
No more seizures  thank You God.

Andrew, that was the longest 10 years of my life. I was in so many hospitals and had so many M.R.I.s on my brain. I was even in hospitals in different states. I would go into a spell, black out and wake up in a hospital bed. How my husband stood it is beyond my imagination. I just thank God daily. Kathie

You bet Richard. It took 10 years and I read the Bible through, bought Bible tapes and walked then through. He had to prepare me for His goodness. Kathie

I think that your poem and the story within it are an awesome example of God's love and God's power!

This happened to me Ron. Also my mom was told she had 1 week to live with cancer in her stomach. She was prayed for and passed the empty sac, and lived 20 years. How could I not believe in Him totally? Kathie
