God's Solution

Is there a pill, a prayer or principle 
to undo the damage of many years? 
To suppress my emotions 
or hide the truth? 
to make gone with the old,sinfull nature?

I have searched all over, 
tried every DIY-solutions, 
but all have fallen short 
and been found wanting.( Daniel5:27)

Its time to get to the roots, 
to humbly face the truth, 
regardless of pain and fear. 
For the time has come, 
the season has dawned  (Ecclesiastes 3:1), 
For Him who began the good work in me, 
to continue this slow and painfull process, 
the long-suffering, continues moulding - 
for the final outcome - 
To be transformed in His image, 
the likeness of Christ. (Philipphians 1:6)
