Nice words - For healing we need more then merely nice words



Nice Words
(2206120550-0604,2206120712-0725)

Nice words
are nowhere enough
to touch the depth
of my wounded heart.
Nice words
are a bandage
or at best a pain killer.
After a short time
of distraction
my soul continues to cry.
Nice words
are just not enough.
Where do I find more
than nice words
when I badly need
restoration and healing?
Is everything empty
and in the end meaningless?
Is there nothing that carries me through
and holds me?
There is only one place
I find healing words.
Words of truth
even though they are not comfortable
and not trendy at times.
Words that give my blind heart
new light.
Words that can hold me
even when I find myself in a free fall.
Words that allow me
to see my true self
like in a mirror.
Words that forgive
and bring reconciliation.
Words that give
the right answer.
Words that allow me
to feel totally good
about myself again.
Words that were not
spoken by humans
because they have healing power.
There is only one book
for the world
in which I can find
those words.
When you read that book
and search in it
then you have found
a priceless spring.
Thank you God
that in your endless love for us
you made the Bible available.
