Hopefully making theology simpler to understand! (2 Corinthians 1:12)

Here is your usual reminder to check out the wise words over at Proverbial Thought.

Last week I showed you accepting forgiveness, a poem I wrote on August 12, 2007. Five days later I wrote a follow-up inspired by my own life. It is about being a Christian yet following the ways of the world for a time. I trust you will enjoy:

accepting forgiveness II

forgiven and freed

forgotten by me

living while thinking

God stopped forgiving

but when i come around

and His love i have found

inside of my heart

and know my sins are

truly forgiven

by God in heaven

i forgive myself

and accept His help

to clean my conscience

through repentance

then He takes the clean

whom He calls redeemed

and a party is thrown

for those He calls His own

each as guest of honor

personal blame over

we accept His pass

to a life which we sin less

and accept what He gives

the life His Son lived
