All Things New

All things New

  

All things new, out with old…and in with new

I want be a new creation, one with no fault, with no limitations.

Let go of all my hate, let go of every grudge.

Forgive in a haste, and refuse to judge.  

I feel like a caterpillar ready to explode with new life

Like a torch in the dark, ready to expose all of my light

Let go of all my ways, and take a leap of faith.

But, oh my, where do I begin?

And what about all of this sin, that I have within

For I have made mistakes, where ever I have been

I just cannot stop sinning, I just cannot be clean.

No matter how hard I try, I always seem to backslide

I cry all night, I cry with all my might

Oh God, I try, but I just cannot win this fight

Lord I’d Love to come to you today

But let me first clean myself up, then I’ll be on my way.

Let me first make myself worthy

Then I’m ready to see the king of glory.

No, he cannot love me in this state

For he will think I am a mistake

Let me first stop drinking,

Then we can start talking

Let me first be pure

Then he will love me for sure

But let me tell you my brother and sister that you are mistaken

For your sins have already been forgiven

For he came not to judge the world, but to save the world, with his loving word.

The Bent Tree

Just like this bent tree, many of us have found ourselves far from 
God's commands, but only Jesus can straighten

our lives.

Under his light, we can be made straight again

So many people out there are hungry for a new beginning, desperate for a new start, and overwhelmed by the desire to let go of their old ways...so then why do we so easily fall back into them? I'm not going to pretend I know all the answers, but what I do know is that we first NEED to seek God, THEN all other things will fall into place. So many people are under the impression that they should first change, then come to God. He came for us sinners, not for the righteous. So stop making excuses, he wants you just  the way you are, He wants to change you, because only He can Change you. 2 Corinthians 5: 17
