The Right Signs (New)

I awoke bright early one morning

Sin captivated my heart and mind

The spirit gave warning

I gave no ear to the sign

I heard a knock ,

Then went my, merry way

All the glimmer of the world

The devil displayed that day

All glittered under the moonlight

While I laid back on my easy chair

Suddenly I heard a faint whisper

Pretending not to hear

At the stroke of midnight

I awoken like from a dream

I heard a voice but saw no one

"Why do you percecute me"

Suddenly something struck me

Like a a ton of bricks

I asked, is it you Lord, He replied

It's hard, to kick against the pricks?

A thorn in the flesh was given me

I remember His word was true

He came, to bring, Salvation

His Holy Spirit, and repentance to

I asked, he, remove the thorn

twice ,then again, the third time

My strength, is perfect in weakness

God's way and perfect design

So perhaps, you learn the lesson

To pay attention to the right signs

To know God's love and grace

Refreshes us seasons and times

feed back honest opinions

Lovely verse and reflection of your undeterred faith is very explicit and vivid almost vibrant and vocal in every line and every word.The meaning, depth and message is very beautiful and very well expressed.Thanks for sharing this one and please continue to share.The message reminds me of whispered prayers of my childhood mornings and the purity is very sweet...

Honest opinion is I can feel your faith in the write and I understand the message your giving and I wish I had your faith but could I ask that I get a gentle prod in the right direction pleace and not a thorn lol.

excellent, refreshing for the kind of work i would ordinarily read.
it really made me think, and maybe even question my judgement on the way i see things which in itself is pretty profound and i thank you for that.

Amen! Prophetic my dear sis...all should digest this right and read over and over again, how He uses you mightily. The 5th line up you have a typo with the word Father, then lay-ed back up at the beginning is laid. Excellent and profound. Blessings.
