HOW LONG IS IT GOING TO TAKE YOU TO FORGIVE ME
FOR YOU BEING STRUCK DOWN AT THE TENDER AGE OF TWO?
WHAT DID YOU EXPECT ME TO DO?
TAKE YOUR PLACE IN THE HOSPITAL?
I WOULD HAVE DONE THAT, YOU KNOW,
IF IT HAD MEANT GETTING SOME ATTENTION FROM YOU, JUST FOR A SECOND OR TWO.
SELFISH, BUT TRUE
WHAT DID YOU EXPECT ME TO DO?
TAKE YOUR PLACE IN THE HOSPITAL?
I WOULD HAVE DONE THAT, YOU KNOW,
IF IT HAD MEANT GETTING SOME ATTENTION FROM YOU, JUST FOR A SECOND OR TWO.
SELFISH, BUT TRUE
JUST GIVE ME SOME IDEA,
SOME KIND OF CLUE,
SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO.
BECAUSE, YOU SEE, I'M TIRED OF BEING KICKED AROUND FOR SOMETHING I DID NOT
DO.
AND I'M SORRY YOU FEEL THIS WAY.
IT SEEMS AS IF I'VE ASKED YOU A MILLION TIMES,
AND FROM MY VIEW IT SEEMS AS IF IT'S EASIER FOR YOU TO FIND FAULT WITH THE PRESENT THAN WITH THE PAST,
ALWAYS ENJOYING YOUR LITTLE LAUGH,
THEN USING ME AND STABBING ME IN THE BACK.
THEN USING ME AND STABBING ME IN THE BACK.
WELL, HERE'S A LAUGH FOR YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS -.
I'M STUCK IN A WHEELCHAIR NINETY-NINE PERCENT OF THE TIME.
I'M STUCK IN A WHEELCHAIR NINETY-NINE PERCENT OF THE TIME.
BUT THIS LAUGH IS ON YOU, BECAUSE I AM TRULY HAPPY AND LOVED
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE.
AND I AM FORGIVEN.
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE.
AND I AM FORGIVEN.
WE MAY NEVER BE BEST FRIENDS,
BUT GOD'S PRECIOUS LOVE IS FORGIVENESS,
AND, DESPITE OF HOW I WEAR MY HEART ON MY SLEEVE,
I AM AS GOD MADE ME,
OPEN AND FREE.
AND WHAT A JOY IT IS IS TO BE FREE,
KNOWING THAT ALL THIS TIME HE HAS BEEN WATCHING OVER YOU AND ME.
JUST TAKE A MINUTE AND THINK ABOUT THAT
I PRAY THAT YOU, TOO, CAN, JUST THIS ONCE, PUT YOUR PRIDE ASIDE
AND BE
HAPPY AND FREE.
AFTER ALL, WE DON'T HAVE MUCH MORE TIME.

JAMES 4:14
WHY, YOU DO NOT EVEN KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN TOMORROW. WHAT IS YOUR LIFE? YOU ARE A MIST THAT APPEARS FOR A LITTLE WHILE
AND THEN VANISHES.
