I'm glad God's grace doesn't depend on my goodness.Cause I'd be screwed.

A poem I wrote

 
Currently Listening
Real Talk

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.
