My Day Of Illness Hell Poem by Jonathan Goldman a.k.a JGthepoet

Today I witnessed from my Mind,
How YOU LORD shut my body down,
To make my Faith grow stronger still,
That I already have in YOU.

Given pain-killers of morphine type,
As I lay in my hospital bed,
Made my body go on strike,
From the tips of my toes until my head.

I know that YOU alone does keep me so,
To do YOUR Will as YOU wish me to,
But with no muscle power from Head to foot
I lay in agony and scream awhile.

The pain abated slow today,
The muscles slowly regained their strength,
And now I know YOU will heal me,
As I await YOUR Healing Powers.

LORD, I know that I will be
Strong in time to do YOUR Work,
To spread the Word ~ How my strength in YOU
Through this Bad Patch did get me through.
