oh sinful man that i am, who can free me from my sins?

and so i sit here, trying not to dwell on my humanity. why must i be filled with spite and such venomous thoughts against others? why must i act on such things? i realize again how if i act on those things how it sullies the blessings i receive.

Jesus, may I dwell on You and Your love, instead of the sins that so easily entangle me.

and scene...

blur

i've lost my focus. i didn't know what happened. i let other things replace Him Whom my soul loveth. it was all a blur. His face hazy, in fact, I didn't even see it, couldn't see it because of the veil. and the things of earth grew in stature and obstructed my view. my vision of Him grew dim. so dim, my soul was in darkness.

the veil all around, the darkness surrounds, my soul in turmoil. He lifted the veil, the light invaded, my soul rejoices. what a God i serve, so full of love and grace.

so e'en now You lead me in the path of righteousness for Your Name's sake. how glorious this love is. how humbled my heart is. how ecstatic my soul is. a wretch, a sinner like me, the object of such divine love.

may i never forget, may i always remember. this love, this grace. may i always be found in You.
