Time with the lord
Facing two misdemeanors and a felony 3
I was hurting like lighting struck a tree.
Then the lord came to me.
He said he’ll set my spirit free.
He dried the tears off my face ,
and told me his love can’t be replaced .
I told the lord , thanks for being here.
everyday I feel him near.
I asked the Lord to forgive my sin.
The lord said , Yes,
I’m happy you came back to me again.
My daughter, I’ve always loved you
and it’s not for pretend.
Then the lord said , If your falling apart,
Just remember I’m there to comfort you in the dark .
For this is how I feel:
I love you and always will.
I told the lord I feel dirty and grimy.
The lord said , I forgive you and I don’t hate you , because you plead guilty to your crime.
for you are my child and always be mine.
I have plans for you , and it all in the matter of time.
Don’t worry you will be fine.
I ask the lord will his love go thin?
The lord said no , don’t have little faith.
Remember , I died on the cross to wash away your sin.
I asked the lord about setting my children free to him.
The lord said , don’t worry , I’m protecting them .
I told the lord I’m scared and don’t know what to do.
Then the lord said, remember my promise. I wont leave or forsake you.
Just humble yourself , my child.
I know your time in jail seems tragic,
but sit back, be patient, and let me do my magic ..
