A Gift From the One

He gave me a Gift.

To see what I’d do with it.

There’s so many options placed before,

Either accept it as love or look in abhor.

The gift I’ve been given comes in different styles;

Ailments, pain, and neurological trials.

How’s that a Gift? Many do say.

It’s all in the perspective of the handler’s way.

Sure there’s a price to be paid

When such a marvelous Gift is received.

The price comes from the withering of your physical domain.

But the price is small for what all is to be gained.

The gains and the prize aren’t worldly at all.

And usually it doesn’t come to the receiver at all.

But if your eyes are set upon the Goal,

The Goal being Christ with His atonement full.

Then clear as can be the supernatural is seen.

Your loved ones and friends’ testimonies do gleam!

The Gift it was given and I’ll never return,

To whom I was before the “Fire” did burn.
