Thank you for the very well thought out and laid out letter,  Gerry.

This morning, (yesterday that is), I awoke with various hymns in my head head on the Precious Blood of the Lamb.  They most likely welled up from my spirit placed there by God's SPIRIT.

I felt very blessed by the Lord because I hard picked up some dark energy from someone whose words were very negative even though I did my best to steer this person to the Word, the Living Word of Christ.

My soul inevitably was drained of Life and Light.

Last night the Voice of God spoke to me.  The Holy Spirit told me not to let the devil pull me down.  It occurred to me, I was playing a broken, dead record in my head.

I woke up singing "There is power, POWER, WONDER WORKING Power in the Blood of the Lamb.".

Later in the afternoon, another hymn came to mind.  I began to sing  "This is my story.  This is my song.  Praising my Savior all the day long.....

I pulled out my hymnal and here is the second stanza:

Perfect submission, perfect delight,
VISIONS OF RAPTURE NOW BURST ON MY SIGHT.
Angels descending, bring from Above, echoes of Mercy, whispers of Love.

Stanza 3:
Perfect submission, all is at rest,
I IN my Savior am happy and blest;
WATCHING and WAITING, looking above, Filled with His Goodness, lost in His Love.

Come Lord Jesus!

Blessings and encouragement to all!
