Mr. Pain
I always thought you will strike like a lightning, leaving me paralyzed, half dead not breathing.
But I was wrong, you came like a lamb, gentle and slow. You enter my heart and tears started to flow.
I was left empty, confused and alone. All I wanted was to run back home. Tears flows like snow, slow and cold. Wishing someone is there for me to hold.
I'm not ready to meet you Mr.Pain! I cried. My whole being crushed with pain that I can't hide.
Now I understand why broken people cry for days, not eating & sleeping wishing it's all just a play.
In the midst of the waves of agony, you will feel like drowning.You just want to be consumed by the silence of the never ending sting.
In my chaos, there you came. Mighty, glorious, gentle and loving.Wiped the snow frozen in my eyes for me to see that true love conquers suffering.
His name is Jesus, the name that defines life. Because by his name alone I was given peace and not strife.
Holy,holy,holy the king noticed my agony! I don't deserve a kings attention but he smiled and told me "You deserve love, a love that this world can't define, please accept the gift of salvation."
Mr Pain kept silent and Jesus remained still. I was left with a question.
Shall I embrace distress or salvation?
Oh, how many times have I broken my kings heart? And here I am, still forgiven and given a new start!
I am his! I am God's daughter.
Redeemed, cleansed and kept holy by the saviour who wiped my tears... my soul's lover.
Mr. Pain left my heart and to Jesus I surrender. Accepted the gift of joy and and a heart with no door for Mr. Pain to enter.
