The
Blessing Of Intercession
You
crept into my life
in
the most unusual way.
You
found a room in my world to which
I
had closed and thrown away the key.
A
piece of my heart
had
been wrapped in a silence.
I
had forever planned to keep it secret,
Never
fearing discovery again.
The
tender spot that a child
in
all trusting ways shares freely,
Yet
can forever be damaged by one cruel act,
Was
cradled in a vow of silence.
The
nights of terror
had
stolen my childhood dreams
And
replaced them with forever nightmares,
And
wounds that should never heal.
The
days had become
A
stage for me to play my role
And
pray no one would ever see the act,
And
discover my hidden pain.
But,
Jesus, you alone
Could
hold the key that opened
Locks
I placed to hide the secret truth.
Discovery
was not the horror I imagined.
Instead,
I found your love.
You
held me with arms of strength
Yet
no pain nor threats of disgrace.
You
replaced my misery with joy and peace.
Where
I had terror,
You
gave me courage.
Where
there had been death and destruction,
You
gave life everlasting.
The
great deceiver ,satan,
Was
no longer in control.
In
that moment when I took you hand,
His
anguish over me began.
The
souls he planned
To
gain through my past
Would
no longer be his promised prey.
You
erased the evil curse and set me free.
The
child became a woman
And
the victim had won the war.
You
gave to me the victor's shield and sword
And
released me from his hold.
Now
I am yours
To
battle where you send.
My
weapon is your gift of prayer
And
with it, your children I will defend!
