Poetry
How do I face my fears
when I cannot see in the dark
How do I reach deep inside
and find that which is not
I am a broken vessel
nothing can I hold
I yearn to be used
yet desire to be alone
How do I look into His face
with my shame and guilt so heavy
How dare I hurt him so
why do I keep this going on
I cannot bear to think of Him
or contemplate forgiveness
For the depth of my sinful state
is a confusion I did willingly create
He joyfully endured the pain
all because He loved me
Yet here I find myself again
on this path to empitness
I realized something just now
this heavy burden that I bear
He wants to take it
and carry it for me
"Give it to me." He softly says
"let it go and you will see."
Do I deserve this mercy
this unfailing love
How is it that we forget
He loves no matter what
That even through our mistakes
He sees the beauty that we hide
How do I face my fears?
With my eyes upon His face
My hand tightly clasped in His
and one step at a time.
