<b><font color=#0000CC>A Sinner Like Me</font></b>
Pushing this flesh into alignment,
guided by The Word most holy and pure,
I’m striving to learn principles
for a sanctified life to endure.
My Lord loves me without hesitation
and allowed a part of Himself to die.
He’s calling me homeward without reservation;
by His Spirit, to His side, I’ll eventually fly.
Knowing I’m a child of His,
during trying times I find true encouragement.
I’m able to lean on His strength
while in search of heavenly ascent.
Stumbling forward with pained progress,
I’ve chosen to turn myself towards Thee.
On Your path, lit by spiritual Light, I’m hoping…
That You will still forgive… a sinner like me.

It's very basic really, all we have to do is have faith and God will lead the way. Excellent poem Joseph.--Melvina--
oh this is excellent...God will show us the way..we need to trust Him and let Him lead us (not as easy as it sounds) thank you! ! !
Will your book be nationally available? From what you have here, it sounds like it will ba amazing.
How inscriptive for each of our lives, when faced with the fact that Divine LIGHT calls to us; and will we do an accurate audit~, as you have so bravely and masterfully done? A most enjoyable muse, Joseph. Thank you for caring to share.
Regards,
~Milly.
Pray that someday, Joseph, your unshakeable conviction will return to me.
Nice poem Joseph, It is was wriitten with honesty. You seem to care who you are and that is really nice. Take care.
Oh this is brilliant, I know this feeling so well
My favourite part was:
Pushing this flesh into alignment,
guided by The Word most holy and pure,
I’m striving to learn principles
for a sanctified life to endure.

To forget is human and to forgive is divine.
