Confession
by Connie Faust → (All Poetry by Connie Faust)
   Rated "G" by the Author.

We all sin. "Christians are forgiven, not perfect," the saying goes, and it proves true in our lives. We do sin daily, but God offers instant cleansing when we confess it to Him. He's "The God of New Beginnings."
Don't ever hesitate to come to Him for a fresh start and a renewed friendship with the greatest Friend you will ever have.

I come to you, my Lord,
in humble request,
that You would replenish,
and bring my soul rest.

Though You never forsake me --
I'm a child of Your heart --
yet my sin comes between us
and keeps us apart.

When I think of my sin,
all its ugly endeavors,
I feel once again
our relationship severed,

for sin, such a part of me,
crushes my soul
as it separates me
from Your loving control.

Please draw me again
to Your throne of grace,
and let me gaze into
Your wonderful face.
For moment by moment
I need You, my Lord;
need wisdom for living,
and friendship restored.

I John 1:9 says,
"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."

Hello Connie,



I am blessed by this poem because you have shared how God's love continues to flow and forgive as we come to Him in repentance, and His faithfulness cleanses us from our sins, while His grace gives us the wisdom to learn from it and obey Him.

This is such a lovely prayer.
One we should each remember every morning.
Nice to know I'm not the only one to feel this way.
But you verbalize it so well.
Thanks--RaeLynn

Thanks for the memory refresher. We easily tend to forget this message. How careless of us! Peace

Excellent write Connie. Yes, we all sin. Thank goodness our Lord is a kind and forgiving Father.

Good write, Connie; I ask every day for God to forgive me of any sin, unknown and known, remembered and forgotten. That way, they're all covered. I know for a fact I'm not perfect; but I AM forgiven! Well done!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :D
