I'm on the verge of a breakthrough so powerful that I can hear the enemy of my soul gasping in disgust
because of the one that got away
Tucked safely under the wing of the Almighty
while sobbing with a wrenched heart
I can hear the voice of the Father take Authority over the evil one
Reeling from the pain of despair over being orphaned and rejected countless times
My heart lies like an open wound bleeding profusely with no end in sight
Breathless I pray for the strength to pray for those who count me worthless
and toss me aside with words of venom
“Father please don't allow the venom to poison me with hate.
I choose to forgive although I can never forget.”
Eagerly I await His reply
But in His Sovereignty I receive much more
I receive his hand
I see Him lift my mangled heart and place it in His chest
and retrieve for me a new one
Whole and healed beautiful in form and hue
It's beat is strong and it is covered with the aroma of myrrh
He holds it out to me
as I walk toward this gift
And in an instant I am transformed within His marvelous light
Under the power of His mighty touch
All past pain
All past sorrow
Gone from my today
Never to reach my tomorrow
Yes I am on the verge of an incredible dawn
Where I will dance in the sunlight
Free from all of yesterdays wrongs...
