I was looking outside the window and this huge Spider web
But there was this like, the most beautiful elaborate Moth, that was on this, on this Spider web...
And the girls were like "Mommy, look at that, is that a butterfly?" I'm like "I think it's a Moth."
And you could tell it was like, tryna get loose, but slowly flapping its wings
But the more it tried to get away from the, the web, it got stuck even more as it tried to set itself loose, right?
And all of a sudden, from the corner, was this big Spider, coming to like you know (devour) devour the Moth...
And then, it starts like, flapping, frantically trying to get loose
And all of a sudden, in desperation I start going BANG to where literally, the, the Moth like, it sets the Moth free (thank you Jesus)
And the Moth flies away, and then the Spider just, goes back up to its quarter
And, I wish'd you could have seen, we were like "Woooh!!!", we were so happy, we were so happy'
And then, I felt like the (Jesus) Holy Spirit said "Disa," (yes!) like, it was just a whisper
It is a testament to me, that He hears His kids, and that the prayers of a righteous person avails much
So it's just kinda like man, Lord, you hear us, you hear us
