    Poem Commentary

    This was very hard for me,I had so many chains of pain & heartache that I didn't know how to let go until I met Jesus & took Him at His Word,that He is here & all I have to do is ask & believe.Well at first it was very hard to believe for what I didn't see.Little by little Jesus was giving me peace, at first I didn't see any results,but it was there.He answered my prayer from the moment I prayed.Day by day,year by year,He brought healing & peace to my heart.I still have a few chains,for when I hear of a child being raped or beaten,it brings back the pain,but then I pray through my tears & (me) is left behind & my tears are now for this child or woman ,my prayers going up to God for all the children/women in this world..So I see my pains of yesterday as a blessing,for now I can see & feel the pain of these children/women & know how to pray for them with real feeling.

    LEAVE BEHIND YOUR YESTERDAY

     

    The chains that have held you

    For many many years.

    The ones that caused your heartache

    Caused all your pain & fears.

     

    These chains can be broken

    From all your yesterdays.

    All your sins forgiven

    For your lost and evil ways.

     

    Just open up your heart and see

    How Jesus came to set you free.

    Believe it's true and you shall gain

    A lot more hope,love and a lot less pain.

     

    He'll take these chains one by one

    And break them off with each prayer.

    You'll feel the burdens drift away

    No longer the pain to much to bare.

     

    For you see,He's standing at the door

    Knocking,knocking,calling out your name.

    Just go now and open the door

    And soon you'll see your not the same.

     

    Although the pain,you still see

    Your prayers and praise have set you free.

    Because you believed what His Word had to say

    You can now leave behind your yesterday.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
