My Prayers

Sometimes you just need a way to express what is travelling through the balckness of your mind. Instead we often keep locked inside all these things that usuallu only come out as groans and sighs that the Holy Spirit must interpret for us in prayer.

Death I deserve and nothing more,
Grace is what I was given.
from my very first breath
Time and again
I abused Your love
Laughed in the face of your mercy
But your sacrificial love
tore through the blindness
of my pride
Shed light on who I really am
Anything good in me is from you
Dei gratia ab initia.
What would I have been
without you?
I do not dare think
I there is love in my heart,
You placed it there.
If there is kindness in my eyes,
it is from you, your life in me.
Death I deserved and nothing more
Grace is what I was given
from my very first breath
time and again.
