Suddenly awakened slumber, actions disdained realized, i have allowed evil. Allowed??? encouraged, welcomed disgusting; come back, come home! i didn’t even know evil had returned. Praying, crying out in desperation sin and pride have had their way my old friend, brought his friends. Together they torment, taunt with overt, sublime pleasure carnal me turns, in weak surrender. Knowing, again; i have driven the nails kneeling, stretching hand to Cross behold there is my best, sometimes only... I have...my friend, my real friend His tears, wretched is my forgiveness my tears, graceful is my forgiveness. He lives. And by grace...so might all. ... was once upon, bleeding |

Tramp Poet, Much tender emotion you've expressed here toward the sufferings of our Lord. Only by Grace my friend. It's only by Grace that we be granted our next breath.... and it is soooooo good to see yours being used to praise the Lord here through your acknowledgment of Him. GOD bless. -Bob |

Satan does indeed lure us away, but thank God, He is always near to guide us back home. This posted poem is in itself one of God’s tools. Thank you, Melton |
