Poem
Striving for perfection comes with a price so it's true the higher you climb the more unforgiving people become, so I ask God let thy will be done not mines, I too felt like I was in the garden of Gethsemane in my life time, forced to make decisions about the people in it when their season was finished, am I tripping. That's what they said, and my actions obviously led them to believe that this wasn't supposed to happen, kinda like how we who call ourselves believers or even devout saints weren't suppose to let sin be the reason we relapsed. Cut out the Holier than thou act truth is even those you idolize and pedestal are in rehab, everyone is struggling with something, so go ahead keep lying to yourself but note to self the first step is acceptance, accepting that you are far from right with God, you went left. Go ahead repent, what the Holy spirit does that non believers or atheist will never get is that it shoots straight threw pride past your emotions and leaves a convicting spirit with the fear in your soul where you finally can admit and say "I'm not right" you see the biggest misconception about Christianity in the west, is that if you accept Jesus as your Lord and saviour then everything this world, these streets couldn't offer you he will and indeed bless you with the rest. But here's the truth, just because you came in class late you are not exempt from the test, Hell, God made his self into a man, and because he saw no end to our ancestors wickedness, he deemed it necessary that the only way to redeem us was to give up himself for us. Now I'm no preacher, I don't even go to church so don't confuse me with any lay member, minister, or deacon just someone who kinda knows the Holy script according to how the Catholic church saw fit to write it up. but here's the message. How can you, a finite flawed human being compete with his perfection, you can't, stop trying he knows this, so start shooting for progression. Because no matter how good of a saint you try to be, you can't buy your way into Heaven. He paid the price you've been set free from bondage of the flesh. You got what you didn't deserve, he took what was coming to you and that's what we call grace. So I guess my only other question to those who say only God can judge me, without Christ Jesus how you plan to beat the case...
