Restoration

Why is it so hard for us to follow God’s plan for our lives? Why do we insist on straying from our ordained destiny in order to do what we feel is right for us at the time? I find myself, more times than I care to admit, coming back to ask for forgiveness.

Forgive me, Oh Lord; it’s me again

I disobeyed Your word, I slipped out of Your will

Remorseful I stand….. Me again

- J. Moss, “Me Again”

Having done all I could

I still fall short

Why does it seem impossible

To do your will and not my own

I second guess everything you’ve told me

I should, rather, question my motives and resolve

Will I forever be trapped

In a prison of my own making

For my disobedience

Is ongoing and constant

Doing what I think is best

Hopeful of a better outcome

But you said to stand still

My feet keep moving

Off the path that You have laid out

I come to you once more

For forgiveness and more so

You have no idea how beneficial it is/was for me to see, and read this. I have been letting life crowd out my relationship with God and this reminds me to change that immediately.

We stray away from the path of light, but we must come back with trembling hearts to the way that lead to the Eternal Kingdom of God! In life, the most important thing is not falling, but falling and getting up to walk again! God is always there with his abundant Mercy, to forgive those turn back to him in repeten

Hmmmmmmh, for all have fallen short of the glory of the father. This means you are not alone.

This happens when we do not put God first and we don’t stay in a relationship with him.

This is an extremely well composed piece and means a lot to me at this time when I am going through so much of dilemma in my own life. Thanks for such a lovely composition
