There Is No Way That We Can Pay For Our Own Sin. Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

Many are bound by guilt.
Some rightly live with it
because they refuse to give
up the sin that brought it on.

Others suffer the weight
of guilt harboring shame.


There is no way that we
can pay for our own sin.

Honestly identify
the source of our guilt
and confess before God.

We turn away from the wrong
and choose to do right.
That is real Repentance.

Confronting guilt in this way
replaces the weight of shame
in our hearts with joy and peace.

Through our witness,
God may reach others
who need their guilt
chains broken.

Stop running, and face
the source of your guilt.

It's time to end your captivity
and start walking in the
joy of God's blessing.
