Meadows or Briars

Invisible pain. Is there a purpose in it and a path through it? This book contains inspirational poetry for those touched by physical and emotional pain or suffering.

Some excerpts:

Though briars leave their mark on you

They painfully succeed

In driving you to seek the One

Wholl heal you when you bleed.

And so if I at first recoil

And from Your cup retreat,

I ask that You remind me, Lord,

The aftertaste is sweet.

The pain in my life is no detour,

But part of His plan from the start.

Its no disadvantage that I must endure

My platformdirect from His heart.

You have a bright tomorrow,

Though yesterday left wounds.

It is these very scars Hell use

To grow His choicest blooms.

But my ways are not Gods ways,

And He knows best, you see,

The sweetest song I ever sang

Birthed through the pain in me.

Ones thoughts directly affect ones emotions and actions.

Therefore, the author includes the truth of Scripture to replace the lies and distortions of the enemy.
