November 4, 1996
once again i prove my mortality how is it that i can do over and over and over what God must not desire i am embarrassed ashamed remorseful and repentant (for now) but time has proved over and over and over that this curse is greater than i
or is it that i seek to be o'erwhelmed by that which i desire a frantic change of thought to preserve an innocence that never was
"For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God"
"But the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord!"
so then it is i that sin and my mind allows it but i desire the greater thing
God
may His forgiveness and love claim even me
But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, although the Law and the Prophets bear witness to it— the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction: for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, (Romans 3:21-24)
For when you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness. But what fruit were you getting at that time from the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death. But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the fruit you get leads to sanctification and its end, eternal life. For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 6:21-23)
