You Are Faithful

Day 8

 

 

You Are Faithful

 

Something sure smells funky

And I wonder what it is…

Is it lurking in the pantry,

Or the trash can, or the fridge?

 

But now I’m looking closer

Finally figured it out

It’s the sin within my heart

Spilling out and all about.

 

In my haste to be a human

Do things needed to be done

I forgot one thing most important

The cross on which You hung.

 

And I went about my business

Each day stumbling to the next

Never thinking for a moment

I wasn’t living in Your rest.

 

But I’m so grateful for Your goodness

Your grace that covers me

Thank You my dear Jesus

For the cross of Calvary.

 

Your salvation, what a gift,

Hallelujah! I’ve been set free!

Help me remember each day

My sins to confess and release.

 

You are faithful, You are good,

You will always keep Your word

I’m as thankful as can be

For the love You have for me.

If we [freely] admit that we have sinned and confess our sins, He is faithful and just [true to His own nature and promises], and will forgive our sins and cleanse us continually from all unrighteousness [our wrongdoing, everything not in conformity with His will and purpose].

1 John 1:9 (AMP)
