SORE SPOT
I was wounded, bruised and hurt
Not many knows how deep
Not many knows ...
I thought healing would come quickly
It wasn't that bad
so it seems
And yet even though the wound
have slightly healed
and there are no more tears
The soreness remains
And I know why
I know exactly why
It's because the enemy saw my vulnerability
The devil saw my weak spot
And just when I thought
the wound have healed
the enemy pokes and hits
Someday this wound will heal
A scar might be left behind
But it will hurt no more
But until then
I would have to bear
And the enemy
I have to fight
The enemy
who throws fiery arrows in my head
and makes me think of thoughts that are not mine
and makes me feel emotions
that should have been left behind
And so when the battle rages
When I have to fight
Help me Lord to remember
the battle belong to You,
not mine.

That last stanza is simply great..
ah, the anticipation
I wish I knew more about the origin of your sore spot. I hope it heals without a scar!
Sounds like a little splinter of a thorn left in deep perhaps.Keep looking up.
I'm very sorry you are struggling with this but in time you will gain many tools to fight this battle. God is your shield and will always hold you up. HUGS
the emotion is raw and your struggle is real, but don't lose faith in your inner strength....
whoa ... read this again and again, such emotion, such pain, so real - I hope not! {{xo}}
