By His Stripes

It hurts Lord!

Why must I keep going through this pain?

It gets so bad!

It's hard to move!

Please Father, take this pain away!

I believe in YOUR WORD!

I know that everything the bible says is true!

Your Son took all of those stripes for our sins!

He died for all of mankind, so one day we could be made brand new!

YOUR WORD SAYS: BY HIS STRIPES, WE ARE HEALED!

So why Lord?

Why am I still suffering from this terrible ordeal?

I try to walk by Faith, and not by sight!

I try to stand on YOUR WORD, not by how I feel!

I know You have a plan for me!

I know You will heal me in Your own time!

Lord, please forgive me for worring!

I'll continue to hold on!

I will never give up this fight!

I WILL OVERCOME!
