Soul On Fire

Never give up!


 

Chronic pain consumes my bones,
day and night suffering all alone.
Dark despair I won't allow,
fighter I am...I've made my vow.


Take a glimpse into my soul,
painful abuse fill empty holes.
Love and joy are real I'm told,
fighting demons gets mighty old.


Our Savior blesses me everyday,
I try real hard his will to obey.
Still, darkness preys upon my flesh,
time still carries many gruesome tests.


My souls a firey furnace that lives,
talking and breathing it won't give in.
Angry emotions I'll turn around,
a soul on fire is silent now.

I have those time of year too, like now with the damn sinus headaches and like that...my neighbor, a doctor, with cages in his back, has all sorts of pain meds, I hesitate to use them, but today I had to, I am so sorry for your pain, ~Z~, no one deserves it nor welcomes it...Peace thru Lack of Pain, Ed & Rufuz

Bless you, Zenith, for this huge encouragement, helping us all along life's way. Surely a word spoken in truth gladens the heart and lightens the load. Indeed, never give up! Grace sufficient is only a prayer away! Thank you for this. KB

powerful and uplifting write that encourages. i live with chronic pain every day too, and some days it is all i can do to keep from crying or giving up, but i know i can't. so i go on, despite the pain i have. and i always am reminded by God about that no matter what I may be facing, there are so many others who have it so far worse than i do! great message in this write!

(((HUGS))) and much love, a fellow chronic pain sufferer, your tx. friend, karen lynn. :D
