The Woman in the Crowd

Here I am
Among the crowds

Hurting and broken
Tired and weary

Waiting for the Savior
To come close to where I am

Because I have faith
In the Savior they call Jesus

That I may touch His cloak
And His power can work in me

Just one touch
And I will be healed

Just one touch
And I will be freed from my suffering

Savior please pass by
I have faith that you can heal me


Mark 5:24-34
Luke 8:43-48

Cytomegalovirus

As I watch the red dots
Slowly form on my skin
Fear washes over me and
Leaves me feeling numb

My mind starts analyzing
How am I feeling?
Do I have a fever?
Am I overly tired?

I thought the virus
Was a part of my past
A really bad dream
That I had finally woke up from

Is this a relapse?
Is my body rebelling again?
I was finally “normal”
Did I try to do too much?

My lymph nodes are swollen
Just like last spring
The signs that I ignored
Until finally I collapsed

Now I am afraid
Afraid that the virus
That put my life on hold
Will do it again

Encouragment

"I would like to share with you what makes me complete. I don't claim to have found the Truth, but I know it has found me. . the only thing that isn't meaningless to me is Jesus Christ and and way he set me free. This is all that I have. This is all that I am." ~Sara Groves from her song Conversations
