Who I Am

Lord please open my eyes and help me to see. Get rid of the weakness That dwells within me. The spirit is willing but the flesh is so weak. Open the curtain and give me a peek. Life is a stage. So let's get on with the show. Let me tell you a story Of someone I know. Some stories are fiction but this one is real. It starts with all the love that a Father can feel. The people were dying. They were living in sin. Couldn't return to the Father in the state they were in. A sacrafice was needed to show them how it was done. God so loved the world. He sent us His only Son. His name was Jesus and He was the Lamb. The sacrafice from God that tells me just who I am. I'm a believer in Jesus. I know that he died for me. Slaughtered and beaten on the cross at Calvary. He lived a life without sin. He was perfect and pure. He taught those around Him how to live and endure. They carried His message. They saw it all with their eyes. God listened to his people. He heard the moans and the cries. When Jesus died on the cross He did it all out of love and the heavenly Father watched it all from above. When Jesus took His last breath and said My Father it's done. God opened the heavens and welcomed back His only Son. The Lord showed us His mercy and He gave us all grace. He gave undeserved favor to the whole human race. I want to carry His message to everyone that has ears. Death without hope will be the worst of your fears. Believe in Lord Jesus. In His sacrifice. Believe in His love and your soul survives.
