Spiritual Strength
Inspire by the quote
"... that illness is not a sign of spiritual weakness, but of
spiritual strength."-Neale Donald Walsh
Each day as I awake
The pain becomes very real
As I drag myself out of bed
Every sore muscle is what I feel
Some times I wonder
"what did I do to deserve this pain"
Then I remember why,
It's for the wisdom my soul will gain
I've been shown by this illness
How strong I can truly be
One day from this physical body
And illness I will be truly free
This physical illness is mine
In this life it's my burden to bear
But it will help my soul grow
Ascending into His loving care
We all chose our path in life
Long before we are ever born
Each decision that we make
Every Rose and every thorn.
But when this life's road
Is over and your job is done
Spiritual strength and pure love
Is what will be won.
