| | This is a poem I wrote a couple minutes ago about some of the struggles I face everyday.
I hate this flesh That rips at the seams. I hate this body So much I could scream. I hate this life Full of emptiness and decay. Lord Jesus, take me. This is how I pray:
Father, in the name of Your son, I come to You, although my flesh wants to run. I come to You, seeking your forgiveness and peace. I run to You, rid me of this sin disease. It’s always invaded. I’m constantly hating The way my flesh keeps evading From coming into alignment with the Spirit. Lord, I cannot bear it. Take all this sin and shame; Cast away the guilt, I cry in Jesus’ name Deliver me from myself. Renew in me My spiritual health. Lord, I feel weak and it’s hard To keep on fighting This spiritual war That keeps on residing In my mind, in my flesh, In my spirit, in my head. Lord, please take it away. You raised me from the dead To live a life that glorifies You Help me to stop acting like a fool. God, I need You at every intersection. Not just for a blessin’, But for who You are; To rest in Your presence and Your holy arms. I need You to come and to invade my heart. I earnestly pray that this sin would depart. God I know that You hear me and that You care. I thank You for listening to my sincerest prayers. God, mold me and make me what You will. And Lord, I know that your grace consumes me still.
Thank you for the cross. Thank you for Your death That brought me up from my spiritual sickness. |
