Knowing Redemption
She whispers into the darkness,
to find light.
I do not understand.
If she is trying to find light,
why look in the dark?
We seek,
but do not find.
Suffer through trials and tribulations,
but do not gain.
Thinking that maybe if we
ignore it one more time
and just maybe
if we give them another chance,
the results will differ.
But don’t you know
the same actions cause
the same mistakes.
Except, the more of the mistake,
the more disappointment there is until
until it is (almost) numb.
You think you are lost,
that you are gone
and that there is no chance
of redemption.
But don’t you know
that He redeems all who
are broken?
All who are afraid
and all who are weak.
Don’t you know
that once you are with
Him, there is no
searching through darkness
to find light.
There is no
compromising.
Because the God
that I know and love
provides warmth
and peace.
Colossians 1:13-14 says,
“For He has rescued us
from the dominion of darkness
and brought us into
the kingdom of the Son he loves,
in whom we have redemption,
the forgiveness of sins.”
My God is an Almighty God,
He is a Forgiving God
and he is a Redeeming God.
“Cast all your anxiety on
Him because he cares for you.”
1 Peter 5:7 reads.
Trust me, (Trust Him)
that sin does not
care for you as much
as my God’s
love radiates
through the depths of the oceans
and peaks of the mountains
for you.
Instead of living in the now,
for the thrill-seeking and
lust-filled world,
live for eternity.
Because when the time
has come,
I’ll be entering
His heavenly gates.
But will you?
