Look So Trim

Then there was time that seemed so terrible
Everything that happened was unbearable
I had hoped would never happen again
And God would save me from my sin.

By things like that I have been plagued
While in prayer to God have often begged
I know You truly are the sacred one
Please forgive me for what I have done.

From all of my sins I am now forgiven
God's love is why I continue to be living
And if it really had not been for Him
Then I still would be fat and not look so trim.

"ask and He will provide.." ... we always ask forgiveness from our sins, and yet keep on repeating from where we had started. God is so good ,though we're not worth it from His kindness.. He still forgive us. Your poem is filled of faith for our beloved Father in heaven.. Kudos... "Spread The Light! "... :O))
