Thanks to Christ

Thanks to Christ

A Poem by John Carver

Jesus healed my vision today my faith and mind He told me he could heal my lungs so I asked him to                                   
But he didn't do it for he doesn't want to find

It took so long to reach his side for you

I asked if he ever did that when he was here

But he said the Father screened them all very well

So no one asked to be healed that didn't get cheer

For he never turned anyone down which was swell

That's our Savior who bore our diseases on the cross

And our infirmities while he was on Earth

And even after to no Apostle's loss

And even now to those he wills with mirth

And glory to God for his Son who's wonderful

And makes it true when believed in faithful counsel

Author's Note

I had been wearing glasses for 62 years and It felt so weird not to have glasses that I've went back to wearing glasses just to feel normal again and lost my miracle for losing my faith that the miracle was the answer I had asked for.
