FEBRUARY 21, 2020

I have been born into a dramatically broken world 
It does not function in the manner God intended 
I live every day in a fallen world where evil still exists 
I face many temptations each day of my life

I see things God never intended me to see 
I hear things God never intended me to hear 
The alluring deceitful pleasures of sin before me 
Again, again and again 

I forget how often I am tempted
Unaware of the lurking sin in my heart
But God's grace has given me His promise
and His spirit placed within me

I thank him for his grace and grasp His words by faith 
I search the scriptures to see his precious promises
Promises to grow healthy and strong
To be happy in a divine life

His word is the source of all wisdom
‘He hath said… we are saved”
The fountain of my comfort 
The well of eternal water
