The Way I Am

The Way I AM O Jesus; I praise your name. I know that you are the highest of the high. I know that there is no one greater than you, so today Jesus I come to you. I know that I am not worthy for you to look at me, but I know that you love all your children. Please Jesus, don't turn your face away from me. I know I have done a lot of things that were not good in your eyes, but today I want to leave all that behind. Jesus - I ask you please accept me the way I am. I am not much to look at, or have too much to give. I can only offer you - my love, my heart and my life. Please Jesus don't deny me your love, Let me come to you , just the way I am, so you can clean me and make me new again. Come Jesus and walk with me. Show me the path that I must follow, so I can be worthy , worthy of your love....

Harry; Thanks for thinking that. I only write what I feel, but you are also blessed. For some reason God gave us that gift. We should all be thankful. May God bless you always.
