Today is true as any other, that Christ's sacrifice is the only truth that proclaims victoriously, 
the deliverance of eternal death, my only means of salvation, for him willingly embracing 
God's wrath, and receiving the punishment of my sins, as a warrior he faced death.
Asking forgiveness for the ones, who greedily tortured and mortally wounded,but in all this 
he had control, His life was freely given.
An insurmountable sacrifice, the KING of KING'S has risen! and into me he so humbly 
brought, the embrace of his perfect love and attention, even though my self-induced lusts 
after sin. have removed me so far from God's perfect will, leaving me completely depraved, 
bruised, and hopelessly broken.
Please God forgive this blatant sinner, the wounds i've endured i'm so ashamed, have all 
been self-inflicted.
Please God wash me new, in the blood of your son Christ Jesus, placing me as a new 
creation in the body of Christ, when truly i've earned God's judgement and wrath.
Praise and glory always be to the one, he conquered death and gave me a new life, he freed 
me from myself, and from eternal damnation, he offers the gift of deliverance, how can i be 
so ungrateful as to continue in my sin?
And yet you pour out your perfect love, grace and mercy, and discipline me when i need it, 
and i am so eternally grateful, because without you life is darkness into which i wish i was 
never created, but all things through you there is victory, so glory and power, and praise be 
to you, you've delivered delivered me from death.
You picked me up and brushed me off, and told me "it would be o.k., but if i followed you i 
would endure hate and persecution, for proclaiming your salvation.
But hey if God's got your back, your a Warrior of Victory, His light destroys all fear, there is 
nothing that man can do to rip God's love away", your KINGDOM come, your WILL be done, 
on EARTH as it is in HEAVEN.
Make me your disciple, because removed from you i am openly wicked, self absorbed, drug 
induced, a pitiful abomination.
All power praise and eternal glory, i am forever grateful, though i constantly stumble, may i 
humbly repent in the name of your only begotten son, CHRIST JESUS.
Your indescribable gift to spend eternity with you, under your perfect rule, praise be to God 
for your free gift of salvation.

Hi Stephen: Welcome to the soup. In my small way a belief in God is the culture medium that holds all things in life together. Great write .

A fair piece of prose, but it will be liked the best by those who think the same ; I am an agnostic, and find no truth here
