LORD PLEASE FORGIVE ME

I crucified my Lord today
With my sins
Because of your race.
I ripped your skin
With my whip
When you spoke kindness to me
I spit in your face.

My selfish pride, lust and greed
Where the force that
Drove the nails.
I mocked you with a crown
And seated you above everyone.
When I raised the cross
My hatred was the force
Behind the spear.

You kept holding on
Enduring the pain
Just to be with me
A little longer.
And with your last breath
You looked up to the sky
And said “Father please forgive them.”

In disgust I tried to walk away
Bit I saw the bloodstains on my hands.
And I fell to me knees
I cried out “what have I done“.
I looked to the sky
But it had grown black
And filled with fury.
I hung my head in shame
And cowered down the hill.
The days that ensued
Were filled with a haunting guilt.
And when the pain of that guilt
Had became to much
I saw you standing before me
With out stretched arms.

I fell to my knees, crying
LORD PLEASE FORGIVE ME.

a savior that forgives....when repentance is real....
this is real, and yes I am sure you are forgiven...
in Psalms, it says that God wants the sacrifice of a broken spirit....this poem portrays this powerfully

I'm so glad that he rose again, and that he does forgive us when we give our life to Him.

Awesome and honest write.
God bless you...

He was a man of sorrows
...I am a girl of tears.
