Meet the Good, Bad and Special In Me
Love of God keeps transforming my being…
along His imparted divine nature
to bear fruits of good works* surely blessed:
prayerful, blissful, worshipful, grateful.
Flaws of my flesh I earnestly confess:
soul carnality exposing bad pride
vain glory-seeking midst hypocrisy
masked by unbelief and impatient angst.
Upheld by the Lord, my faith glows to serve...
reaching-out along ministry pursuits
volunteering to care as glad steward:
sharing life with abandoned, special kids.
*Ephesians 2:10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
