The Poisoned Arrow
Some arrows from Satan are meant just to graze
Or even to fly by to cause fear to raise
But deadly are others he sets in his sights
Laced with a poison to slowly take life.
The arrows prepared now with such unique care
For he knows exactly what brings you despair
And his perfect timing is planned just as well
He draws back his bow and the arrow takes air.
You’ll know when an arrow is laced with demise
Dripping is sorrow that lingers and cries
You may need more help than you would otherwise
And Christ is the healer that brings you to life.
But beautiful wisdom will come on the wings
Of this poisoned arrow that hurled to kill thee
And after a time of healing is done
Christ sends you to recover more poisoned ones.

It’s all about perspective….see Job:) What Satan meant for evil..God will use for good..
Job 6:4
For the arrows of the Almighty are in me;
my spirit drinks their poison;
the terrors of God are arrayed against me.(I would suggest the reading of Job 6 in it’s entirety)
