Heard Early on an October morn surrounded by strangers, a baby girl was born though the days and years sped so fast my parents tried to make them last. When I grew up and moved away, they were left with only pain. They soon learned of the life I was caught up in The abuse,danger, and oh! so much sin! As hard as they tried....I did not seem to care so they cried out to Jesus...and he was there! From a teenage marriage, there were two baby boys but, at my young age, I saw them only as toys I kept living my life just as I pleased while they cried out for love they so desperately needed. I heard them, but I did not care but Jesus heard....and He was there! There was another marriage, it came, it passed. I knew all along, it would not last. I now had a daughter to join my sons and then I found myself...to be all alone. I needed change!...I cried out...in my fear I cried for my children...Oh! so many tears I thought no one cared. I later found out that Jesus was there! A new hope, a new love, entered my life and in time, I became his wife... Through many troubles, through so much pain we stayed together and vowed to remain. We had a son...our life seemed complete, but soon it came crashing down.... around our feet. It seemed that after all was said and done... we had fallen apart and were no longer as one. We both cried out...in our despair and before we knew it...Jesus was there! To me, it became quite clear that throughout my life...Jesus was near! I must confess in this life of mine I thought I knew best....and I realized that in my entire life, I had never been near to happiness... or love....held back by fear Then on a September day... I walked up to an altar and I knelt down to pray. My heart was broken and filled with such fear I heard Jesus cry out, "My child...come here" My life was placed in his arms with such tenderness and care He promised me he would always be there! Because Jesus took away my burden of fear I cry out for you I am asking Jesus....to "ALWAYS KEEP YOU NEAR" |

gidget, this is so moving and powerfully written. Thank you for writing and sharing this with us. I'm so thankful you made your way to a alter. There is nothing, nothing that compares to being under the blood of Jesus. Wonderful poem.  Love, Marcy |
