Each thing that goes on in our lives Is a stepping stone to spiritual growth If I didn't have the type of life I had I'd never have found my "low" That's when I reached out to Jesus. I voiced one word towards heaven... "Help"...that's all I could muster But God honored it and listened I was so depressed and in the darkness But that one word was all God wanted From that moment on my life got better I was no longer from my sins taunted The rest is a long story But it began with that one word..."Help" Thank you and Praise you Jesus For reaching down and lifting me out Out of the darkness and into the light Out of self will and the pain of sin Out of the world and it's total decay Into a new life with God I'd begin Thank you for listening to my heart And for accepting my one spoken word I now know there's never a prayer From the faithful that isn't heard My pastor once said "for the Christian This is the worst life we'll ever live" That's my hope for my future And that's the hope I want to give ....to you Mary Silva September, 2004 John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
