Struggle



I apologize Lord for the things that I do that isnt of Your will. Very very sorry and want to repent too because those things can kill. I struggle with flesh both day and night trying to lift my sword. Must get more strength to conquer the fight by asking of the Lord.  You are there for me even when I fall and I cannot give up. Deep in my heart I want to answer Your call to drink from Your Heavenly Cup. I beg and I plead forgive all that Ive done give me a brand new start. As I will worship Your Marvelous Son and from Him I will never part.

About this poem

Struggling with the flesh is a very hard thing to do. Just trying can be overcoming.
