Seriously confused and feelings beyond wretched pain,
regretting and experiencing the after-math of my life in vain.
Yearning for a breath of hope or way of escape,
boggled from this living nightmare I couldn't awake.
My foolish, selfish ways have brought such agony,
as a result of living the antonyms of goodness and integrity.
I've surely reaped the evil I've sown,
if I had only seen the pain in store, if I had only known.
Grieving the horror that I have created,
how I have turned the simple into the complicated.
It was a brisk and eerie December night,
as I shuddered at the future with crushing fright.
Feeling so helpless, broken and lost,
if I only could have known the gruesome cost.
I had set my family in extreme jeopardy,
the regret had lacerated my heart, slowly killing me.
Suddenly I recalled the power of the great Physician,
the Lord God Almighty, the Master of precision.
As tears streamed down my face, I thought, I need a sign,
at that moment, I felt a hand fall upon mine.
"Oh my only hope, my God are you there, are you real?
for I want to believe that my wounded heart you can heal.
My Lord give me hope that my binds you can break,
save me from this despair, please do not forsake!"
As I gazed into the night sky, speckled in white,
I prayed, "God help me prevail in this wretched fight,
let me know your here beside me no matter how long or far,
please, please give me a sign like a bright shooting star".
At the very instant as prayer came to a close,
I saw a sight above and I literally froze.
As a shooting star shot across the sky in grand fury,
as I heard silently in my spirit, words that soothed, "Do not fret my child, do not worry.
I will be with you and there is your sign,
I'm holding your life in the palm of my hand, be assured, you are mine.
For I am yours, I will pull you through this valley of despair,
just trust me my child, I will always be right there.
"
As the shooting star faded into the night,
I still beheld its promise, strong and bright.
For with the assurance God has given, I won't ever loose sight,
for I felt the love of His arms wrapped around me with might.
Just think the God of all glory assured me all will be fine,
by answering my call and showed me the shooting star, my requested sign.
Comfort filled my mind and warmth filled my heart,
with the assurance that God is with me and won't ever depart.
So if your bewildered and lost off afar,
just keep in mind my experience, the promise of the shooting star!
Psalms 136:2-9
"O give thanks unto the God of gods.
His love endureth forever.
O give thanks to the Lord of Lords:
for his mercy endureth forever.
To him who alone doth great wonders:
for his mercy endureth forever.
To him that stretched out the earth above the waters:
for his mercy endureth forever.
To him that made great lights:
for his mercy endureth forever.
The sun to rule by day:
for his mercy endureth forever.
The moon and stars to rule by night:
for his mercy ENDURETH FOREVER.
