Lord

"Lord", I know your laws my life, you see my flaws I can't erase my sins everyday it lives within when I do good things the bad is still there, it hangs it keeps me from happiness hoping for forgiveness I've tried and prayed I feel it maybe too late this world has made me realize it needs you for paradise happiness never lasts long misery always prolongs I'm not a pope, nun, nor angel I hunger for your world to be free from evil waiting for heaven to prevail like most in life, ive failed odds of eternal forever seems to me maybe never perhaps I can't live my real life until I passed through that light

Amen. Its like this poem was written for me, for their was the time i saw the laws and lived through the laws and what a burden i carried, for i was always sinning, in thought in action, i mean sin sprang up to life and in me produced every covetous desire of going against the law. But when i came to realize how POWERFUL and SWEET is the grace of CHRIST. I am a totally different person because i saw the light. I love you, Jenn for sharing this word. Gidds

aww a great poem, we are forgiven of our sisn, when jesus died on the cross and rose again, we died with him our past present and future sins, how awesome was that he did for us. it's never to late, God promises that when our sins may be red as crimson he willw ash us whiter than snow, God bless from diane thanks for your kind comments
