He Is Still Where I Left Him

He spoke, I heard but I didn't listen; He then kept quiet, I listened but I didn't hear. His silence broke my heart, or rather, broke into my heart I guess I was getting used to his annoying still small voice, always attempting to tell me what to do and what not to do. I always took his clichés for granted; He would always say statements like, " please listen, what you are doing is wrong, its not too late to turn back from sin!". I always hated him for turning my sweet moments into awkward moments. He always made me regret doing the things l loved the most, I am not surprised why I regret ever ignoring him. My virginity was lost while l was trying to ignore him, My heart was broken while trying to ignore him, My soul was lost while trying to ignore him and now I am left with nothing but addictions and his silence. Thank God because his silence has made me realize how deep I am in sin, I know its my iniquity that has separated me from him. When I thought I was pushing him away from me, rather, I was pushing myself away from him, and that gives me hope coz I know I will always find him right where I left him: at the throne of mercy. I remember him saying that if I confess my sins, he is faithful and just to forgive me, So I guess now that I have another chance, when he speaks, not only will I listen, I will also do as he says
