St. - Paul's - Nights -Of - Suffering Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

I doubt Paul would have
understood the impact
his letter to the Philippian
Christians, and his other
epistles would have,
on many millions of souls,
down through the centuries.

Paul may have been
confined to a prison cell,
but his hope remained
founded on Christ.

And God used his night
of suffering to be turned
into many mornings of joy,
for those who have treasured
the words he wrote.
 
"For to me, to live is
Christ and to die is gain".

(Reference to the Letters of St. Paul
in the New Testament of TheHoly Bible)
