Happy is my heart again, for I'm no longer confused. At last I've found escape from a life that I'd abused. Peace is mine since my Creator heard my confession. Please, I begged of Him, rid me of guilt and depression. In sorrow I fell to my knees. "Oh, God, hear my prayer." Next I told Him I was sorry, and to Him my soul laid bare. Each shameful sin I recounted made me feel so relieved. Scripture brought me comfort, and I no longer grieved. Salvation is my hope because God's Word I now believed. =========================== December 16th 2015 ~ Lin Lane Happiness Acrostic Contest Sponsor ~ John Hamilton
