On what was a normal Sunday morning
I rose from my desk, pausing my daily devotion
And walked to the door to see who's calling
A couple of unexpected strangers, in they strolled
What ensued would change my world and my life.
So they came in and took the floor
Within me, definitely anger was burning
Because of the evil the traitor had set in motion
I never knew I would end up needing bailing
Nor had any inkling of the danger about to unfold
But evil had finally taken over the wife!
I was totally shaken to the core
For what happened next I was given no warning
Neither did I have the slightest notion
It was the beginning of her most dismal failing
I had to put my vision, dreams and plans on hold
With court sessions and lawyers my life became rife!
Six weeks spent where I had never been before
Hope ebbed away and strength started waning
Renewed faith daily, dove into God’s love like an ocean
A word came from above and I found myself believing
I regained my stolen freedom, worth more than much gold
Thankfully I got a new opportunity to live again, free of strife.
