The author's words are heartfelt, strong and creative. I found the
word surrender in this poem such an important word. Surrender
the Corona Virus to God and then trust and pray. The author's
strength in faith is encouraging. The format of this poem is lovely.
My prayers are with you. Hope you had a good Easter Sunday....Maria

I'm so sorry to hear you son has the virus. I pray he will recover soon.
I agree with the cause. There has been so much evil in the world, it doesn't surprise me that this is the devil's work.
That's why it's more important than ever that people turn to God, who is our strength.
Thanks for sharing.
Nancy

"Satan alone is responsible for all the evil, wickedness and
this pandemic that we are facing around the world." Yes.

Psalms 121:1-2 is a grand Scripture to walk in during these troubled times. (It's a great Scripture for the un-troubled times, as well.)

Blessing.

Faith can be hard when times are tough. God and I go back and forth. Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're not. To stay in true faith during the hard times is the ultimate test. Great job and I'm glad you are able to do that :)

Your testament of faith in this uncertain time is really powerful and important. We see here a great determination to hold fast to that rock, to our Savior, no matter how hard the devil knocks you down, tries to frighten you with his viruses and portents of death and destruction. I think it's really more important than ever to witness today, and for Christians to support each other especially with all the churches closed and people questioning gathering in the name of Jesus at all. Prayers for your son. I have a lot of relatives in New York, and thank God, all of them are safe so far. One cousin had a mild case. Soon I will post a religious short story you might be interested in; U-Turn. estory

A very well-written truthful poem/prayer that confirms your faith in God and that no fear of doubt planted by the devil himself will prosper where faith is the stronger element against fear and doubt.

    Linda,
    Blessings to you on this Resurrection Sunday...
    I believe many have gone down that path growing up. I know that I did, I did a lot of running from God, but he found me. He was always with me, never left me...in spite of myself. I am so grateful for God's love and mercy. Thanks so much for your review and sharing your faith.
    Love and Hugs my friend...Portia

Another great offering in this. It speaks to the heart and is a good reminder to us. From my Bible knowledge, God has allowed Satan to do some things but he still has to submit to God. Although the enemy has intended this for evil, God somehow intends it for good to help people come to him in this I believe. I enjoyed reading your poem here and come in agreement with a lot of it. Keep writing for Jesus.

    Ross,

    Thanks sooooo much for your review and very wise comments. I am in total agreement with you. Satan meant this for evil, and yes God allowed this, all is done according to His will. I believe this will be any eye opener for many to repent and seek Jesus. Thanks so much for your encouraging and uplifting review.
    Have a blessed Resurrection Sunday.

    Blessings...Portia

    You're welcome! You are just on fire with writing for God--truly the Holy Spirit in your words. Can't wait to read more. It's helping me in my walk to as I grow more in the LORD these days and as we prepare for His return, God bless.
