Accepted

For once i belong,
A feeling I've searched for so long.
Happiness swells and fills my soul,
No longer do i feel that gaping black hole.
Pins and needles tickle my skin,
As your glory forgives me for my sin.
Back then i used to run and hide,
Allowing hell to flood over me like high tide.
For years i denied what you did for us,
Crucified for all of your children including me.
Now i ask you for forgivness,
Seeking the shelter of your infinate kindness.
All that time i wasted ignoring your love,
Now i sore freely as another one of your dove.
So now i kneel before you in praise,
Feeling my spirits raise.
Never again will i feel dead,

Finally i feel accepted.

    Yes To Finally Be Accepted

    You did a beautiful testimony of your life and the love of Christ. Yes he died for you and I and so full of love and acceptance of us our sins and all. Just asking for forgiveness cleanses our souls. Thank you for sharing your gift to write poetry with me.
    Many Blessings
    Much Love

    Wow, this brings back memories of when I first came to know the L-rd and His love for me. That was a long time ago, I was 19 and now I'm 33.

    I think one of the most important things in our walk with G-d, is to never forget how you felt in the beginning. To never let your love for Him ebb away as the years drag on.

    At times when life is so hard, I find it very good to refresh my memory of what He did for me and how much He loves me to help fan into flame my love for Him.

    I love the wording. I could relate to this so well.

    I love these lines:

    Back then i used to run and hide,
    Allowing hell to flood over me like high tide.
    For years i denied what you did for us,
    Crucified for all of your children including me

    This line is so true it's amazing:

    All that time i wasted ignoring your love,

    Excellent write! Thanks for sharing.
