His Healing Love
~ Linda L. Dowd ~

+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+
I’m trudging up steep mountain high,
To touch a patch of clear blue sky.
My feet are heavy and slow me down,
But on I plod, o’er rocky ground.

Prevailing winds do thrash my face,
As I do scale this wretched place.
Thorns and thistles prick my skin,
Trying patience that has grown thin.

The cold is sinking to core of bones,
But I do stifle my moans and groans.
For the pall of gray that cloaks my soul,
Is lifting as I near my goal.

An Eagle Spirit leads the way,
Up the mountain as I do pray.
For healing of mind, body, soul,
To harmonize and make me whole.

I will not stop my soul’s ascent,
For on I’ll trek without dissent.
The summit marks my journey’s end,
To every twist and turn and bend.

~* ~

The sun now shines through patch of blue,
Warming me the whole way through.
I’m bathed in Light from God above,
While basking in His Healing Love.
+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+

If there is anyone I believe could make it to the summit...it is you! God's speed!

Now that is for sure! This was a beautiful testiment of your faith, both in words and presentation - just lovely!

Beautiful, EA. I do believe we will all reach that goal eventually but only once we've realised that it is a goal, can we set about climbing mountains. You're already far ahead of the pack!

Beautiful affirmation sweet Linda.
I'm still holding you in my prayers.
Sending healing hugs your way.

Hi, Helen! Yes, I believe in the importance of setting goals as well. I reach for the furthest star, but if I never get to touch it, I am still among the stars!

Sending you love and Light,
