Confessions

I love you Jesus. Thanks for all You have done for me. Help me to always keep my eye on You.

I am a liar, a two timing cheater. I give my word and send it to the grave.

 I am a hypocrite, loving and praying-then turning my back and falsely portraying.

 I am a liar, a two timing cheater. I gave my life, my all, my purity to You. By saying I'm in love I resolve my ugly reflection with smiles and nods from a few. 

I am a hypocrite, loving and praying- but my neighbors all know it's not true.  I say I am married- I will be by Your side, serving only You. Later You find me crying and lusting, I have cheated You all of our days. I'm sorry My Love, yes it is true. I am a thief that has stolen the Truth.

 I'm sorry My Love for all of my past, I'm sorry for the present too. I am a sinner. I am not pure. I am a murderer of Your good news.

I am a liar, a two timing cheater. I give my word and send it to the grave. I don't deserve to be Your bride. I carry a veil atop my head that should be thrown to a  Hell-bound fate...

... yet, a ring of Life has been placed on my finger.... "I Forgive You" whispers Your vow. Reaching out You open my chest and place Your heart into my own. Our hearts beat as one as You kiss your bride with a breath that makes her brand new.

 My love, I was and I still am a sinner, but now I have changed my ways. Renewing my vows to You, I shall not only Live, but also Die with Your name. Through me let others see this heavenly wedding You have given. Let Your love be known to the world again and again. At the time that the world arrives to our wedding, may they too sing an "I do" of praise to Your Name.

 

Amen

A beautiful confession that shows us all that the very best we can do can never be enough... the light to shine is not our own... only in that truth can we can stand... Your words bring such an gritty honesty to our lives of sin and grace.

Thank you so much Craig. It just shows that life as a Christian isn't easy and it stays a challenge (life), but with God by our side, things get more clear and we are able to live more through trust and faith.

this was ...BEAUTIFUL." I am a thief that has stolen the Truth" is my favorite line.
