Bend my way to match your will


                     

What am I doing?  God please take me by the hand I am scared, it is dark I can not see what path to follow on my own. I am lost as lost as ever there was a soul.  Don’t leave me to my own ways lord for they only lead me to great  troubles,  take my will away bend it until it matches your plan, if it hurts make help me to endure make my faith secure  oh I beg of you because I am weak lord  but I know  you are strong, I am filled to overflowing with sin and I cant get out of its mighty grip on my own no matter how hard I struggle, I am unworthy lord but my desire is strong, my sins have formed a mountain but  one drop of your blood washes all of my imperfections  away and leaves me faultless and saved! oh how glorious you are, how wonderful, how kind of you to have sent down your only begotten son to die in our stead just so we worthless humans would have the hope of salvation all people in every nation . What mercy!
I am truly worthless and undeserving of this great thing oh lord, let me lift my feeble voice in constant praises let my voice sing and my heart rejoice let me serve as a welcome for all who are new and ones who are yet to find you. Let me be a beacon not for my own selfish reasons but because I believe.  Help me to want to fill my head with your word so I might help someone else who is stumbling someone else just like me stumbling  on the way help me serve you lord in every day not just in the times that are bad lord but in all times let me remember to pray with all the earnestness that flows in my heart body mind and soul let me give it all up for you that is the only way it can be saved oh what a strange paradox only if I give it all willingly can I gain it all and of course there is no fooling you since you know it all you know what is deepest in my heart you know my weakest spots make soft my heart then the seeds of righteousness can grow let me forget my pride I know nothing... NOTHING!

Please tell me what you think

    WELCOME TO ALLPOETRY!!

    Very moving spiritual write. God only wants those who want Him. . . but He works His ways to take us all to that point of surrender. This was just lovely.
    I am sure you will be a real asset to AP, as we old-timers call it.
    If you have questions or need anything - give me a holler.

    hugs WolfHeart

    oh wow... This could possibly benifit from some line breaks and punctuations, although maybe it's claustaphobic feel adds to the ambience, with it's two stanza format. I don't know if i'm correct in saying so, but i sense a bit of sarcasm in your words. The claims of "Worthlessnes" and " Nothingness" give me this feeling. Really this piece strikes me as an ode to Perfection vs. Imperfection. keep on writing.

    Another excellent piece, it appears as though my first impression was correct.

    Same problem though with this piece as the last, it was slightly difficult to read in terms of poetry. Now if you were shooting more for a prose style format, then you hit it right on the head. Great write, look forward to reading more
