I Identify As A Sinner...
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

I Identify As A Sinner Who Needs God’s Grace!

 

I identify as a person who truly needs God’s grace!

Things in my life aren’t really “put into place.”

 

I don’t seem to know “which way is up or down.”

Any find of true meaning in my life can’t be found.

 

It’s like I wake up each day with a “hole and empty void.”

Nothing that I try satisfies , or can ever “be enjoyed.”

 

Jesus, I come to you and there’s something I’m asking.

I want to “identify” with a life that’s truly everlasting.

 

“Identifying” with a different gender doesn’t bring satisfaction.

What I really need is a heart to heart “Jesus interaction.”

 

  I identify and confess, that I’m a sinner who’s totally lost...

I confess my need for a savior and his sacrifice on the cross.

 

I want my identity to be transformed into a Godly direction.

By the blood of Jesus and the power of his resurrection!

 

I want to transition from who I am to a brand NEW creation…

By the mercy of Jesus and his way of living through salvation!

 

You identified with my sins the day you were on the cross!

Without you, I’m forever hopeless and eternally lost!

 

I want to experience the joys of truly being BORN AGAIN!

I want to know what it’s like to have an everlasting friend!

 

.I come to you Lord Jesus, on my knees…  I repent and confess…

I ask you to come in my life and “take care of this mess.”

 

I ask you Lord Jesus, to do what

no power can do…

I ask you to wash away my sins

and make me LIKE YOU!

About the Poet
I and my wife have 4 grown children and currently live in the Pacific Northwest. I've spent much of my life doing volunteer work in the food distribution for the needy among local churches. Many of the poems I've written are a reflection of times of adversity as a reminder of God's love and faithfulness. I've found many opportunities to share my poems with those who are hurting and discouraged. I'm thankful for the reports of many of the poems touching people's lives. I hope that the poems included on Wordchimes will touch and bless your life too!
