I am a
failure. That is why I follow
Christ. I am absolutely the most selfish, immature, rude, prideful, arrogant, angry, lustful, sarcastic, cynical, foul-mouthed, vain, superficial, sinful pig. That is why I follow
Christ. I am the worst of the worst of the worst. That is why I follow
Christ. And in case you haven't figured it out yet, I screw up my relationship with
God all the time. I admit my sins.
If I have ever hurt you in any way, please forgive me. I am realizing more and more who I am and how little I have to give. I can only apologize for what I have done.
When I do eventually let you down, and I promise I will, please understand that I am only human. I try, but I can be no more than what I am. So I apologize in advance for the pain I will cause you.
And when I think, that God, His Son not sparing;
Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in;
That on the Cross, my burden gladly bearing,
He bled and died to take away my sin.
When Christ shall come, with shout of acclamation,
And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart.
Then I shall bow, in humble adoration,
And then proclaim "My God, how great Thou art!"
