I am but a mere mortal soul forever haunted, by a trinity of love which exists unfailingly, undaunted, protecting me from the evils and destruction of myself.

I Am Sorry Lord



I am sorry Lord, that I perceived myself to be so important, so much better, so self-righteous, over all other people of your creation, over all times of history.

I am sorry Lord, that I could take so lightly the true and beneficial things of eternity that you conveyed through your own sacrifice for me, knowing your demise and destiny, knowing my deceit and unrighteousness, beforehand.

I am sorry Lord, that I blindly could not see the truth of love you had planned for me, and that I so stupidly chose the most difficult paths for my life, that robbed me of everything except the cultivation and growth of character, soul, and faith in You God, above and beyond all else, all that faileth, except You, my Lord.

I am sorry Lord, that I did not stay the course, keep the direction, digressed from my true purpose, of passing on your message of love and redemption to all those souls you have sent to cross my life’s pathway.

I am sorry Lord, that I can contain in one small heart, the love that goes beyond all measure, which reaches deep into the souls of darkness to bring true blinding light to eyes that could not see, sounds of unmistakable love, to ears that could once not hear. Sorry that I have not taken every opportunity made available to me, to pass on the never-ending truth and love that forever compels me into eternal existence.

I am sorry Lord, that I have taken for granted, the beauty of sight, the pleasures of taste, the aromas of fragrance, and the touches of pleasures, that you have so ingeniously created and maintained over centuries of selfish destructions by mankind.

I am sorry Lord, for the disappointment, frustration, sorrow, and weeping that I have caused your servants and angels (and perhaps if You weren’t so perfect, You), by being a selfish, self-centered, self-imposed, non-focused, waste of life, life without meaningful purpose, only intensified existence, without true understanding.

I am not sorry however Lord, that I have read, studied, believed, and thirstily put all my trust into your guiding Word, and taking your promises of forgiveness and guidance so serious, that I will die defending it, over all else.

I am but a mere mortal soul forever haunted, by a trinity of love which exists unfailingly, undaunted, protecting me from the evils and destruction of myself.
