A Testimony from the tears of a clown
Falconn003:
I recall a time, i worked in a Mental hospital for adolescents. I was placed with a female co-worker on a suicide watch of a female patient. A 16 year old young attractive Intellectual Child, with Wisdom beyond her years had been molested by a family member. She felt like garbadge.
In one of our many conversations she knew she would have to eventualy get passed this situation/s and move on with Life. She expressed many times how she prayed to God to ease burden she would carry all her life mentally, especially if she would marry and have childern of her own, like she prayed and hoped.
On one of these occasions she asked if i would like to hear her present Anthem, to which i glady accepted and thanked her for, trusting me in sharing her Anthem.
Although she understood her suicide thoughts stemmed from her feelings sowed from her rape, she explained this song helped her vent with God, as she prayed for strength and guidance.
As i listend to this song i felt a revelation , vision was being open in my future life. it was eerie as a voice in my head kept kept drawing me in saying remember..... remember... .
During the rollover accident with Ford/Firestone tire, as i sat in that passaenger seat this song played in my mind so Amplified and soothing, it drowned the crunching of steel and breaking of glass. To this day i can remember the scene, but for the life of me cannot recall any sounds during the rollover.
As i struggled to open the door and both my brother and i fell out, i observed the wreackage and distance we rolled over. The song played on. I understand now what happend to me then, as i stood on the sandy foundation of my life's work, now wrecked in a heap both my truck and boat. I thanked God for not taking my brother's nor my life, and letting me live to see my boys grow, and find a closer relationship with God, i promised.
I never found out what became of the child, because of the injuries i sustained in the wreck i could no longer work at the Hospital, i was placed on light duty, clerical mostly. When my light duty time ran out i was on leave. When it was detremined i would not be able to perform my job much less anything as Physical. the only option i had was to resign my position, with a severly debt future ahead due to no work and bills piling on and a custody battle looming. I thank God for this life he gave to me instead of of giving me a sentence of death.
during this strife and down time in my life, i knew God alone carried me, as my Faith dwindle. It was at this time i found Bible-Truths, and an announcement over the national news of class action lawsuite on Ford /Firestone.
A major settlement was going to be coming our way, by but only through the Blessings of God.
Now when ever a set back occurs in my family's life, this haunting song will play in my Spirit. I strongly remind my family of the perils of the Strong Delusion (SPELL) we must all come out of and focus on God's will.
Just recently this occured just a couple of days ago as my older brother faced a cervical operation that could have left him paralyzed, God's blessing he came out fine and is doing very well in therapy and ponders now his new sustained eagerness to enjoy life more with God and his grandchildern.
I know and understand not all present trails and tribulations have happy endings, but they will and I will hope and pray each of us sustains to the end.
Enjoy the song........

Enya - I Want Tomorrow Lyrics
Dawn breaks; there is blue in the sky.
Your face before me
Though I don't know why.
Thoughts disappearing like tears from the Moon.
Waiting here, as I sit by the stone,
They came before me
Those men from the Sun.
Signs from the heavens say I am the one.
Now you're here, I can see your light,
this light that I must follow.
You, you may take my life away, so far away.
Now I know I must leave your spell
I want tomorrow.
Now you're here, I can see your light,
this light that I must follow.
You, you may take my life away, so far away.
Now I know I must leave your spell
I want tomorrow.
Peace and Understanding

Dear Roger
After reading your testimony it has made me appreciate the above song all the more.
I feel truly humbled, brother, and it brings to mind that little verse that Ray says he pasted into his Bible.
"Lord the ocean is so very large and my boat is so very small." You are head and shoulder above me, your house built on sand has truly collapsed and I do believe that the Stone has crushed you to powder. So may the Lord be with all of you as you start building a new life on the Rock. Praise the Lord! And say a little prayer for me.
One of the few I feel so very near the goal, keep good hold of it and keep overcoming as you have been doing, you cannot afford to take your mind off the target now. Sudden wealth can be very dangerous, so use it wisely and always give it bottom place in your priorities keeping the hawks well away. Always remember that you and your precious new family have a lifetime to live on what God has so graciously provided you with now. Don't waste it on sentiment and wrong living, the temptations will be there. Forgive me for giving this unrequested advice but 87 years has taught me quite a few lessons and I believe you are a bit of a soft touch like myself whilst at the same time keeping in mind: "Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the vain glory of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever." (1Jn.2:15-17).
‘Tis always so with our loving Lord
Be our trials many or just a few.
He times them all….by His appointed time,
Then He measure's..and brings you through.
So child of God, listen, there will be an end,
Just trust Him for His Word is true,
Be patient and wait, for in His own good time
He'll measure.and bring you through.
God bless you brother and sister in our joint walk in Christ.
Love in Christ Jesus.

Thanks to your post, Gena, this thread was "renewed" and I now know...."the rest of the story!" :)
Roger--your life has been an amazing journey--would you have traded it for a life of "normalcy?" Thanks for sharing this....all of it....the tears, the pain, the joy!

I could not agree with you more Gina.
There are some threads that open up memories i stored away and feel good about dusting them off and sharing with this Spiritual Family.
