God's Grace For My Sin

My Lord. I have failed you so many times. I feel like I'm in a dark room with closed blinds. In all of my "accomplishments." I've no reason to "brag." Each time I sin... It brings God's "Penalty flag." I've seen fellow believers "fall in disgrace." I can still remember the look on their face. I don't want to end up as many often do. Ending up in failure... In living for YOU. I humbly confess and repent of my sins. It's only in YOU Jesus where true life begins! All of the "broken pieces" in my life.. I give. And beg of your mercy and willingness to forgive. Thank you God! For helping me to become. A child of God, through Jesus your son. Thank you Jesus! For being here and loving me... The chains are gone. I am set free!!! By Jim Pemberton 03/30/09
