How do I fall short of perfection
And expect God to still hear me
I just called on your name
And you just answered me
I turn round and vomit the same sins
I tried to resist but I simply could not
It’s strange for me at least because when I mess up I’m used to punishment
But you are always willing to receive me in the element that I am in
Sit with me and give understanding that surpasses all I’ve ever had
I am grateful I have you and your eternal unconditional love
But I’m embarrassed
My constant crashing
As the seas to the shores
I keep coming back over the same guilt
That gray area between black and white is perilous
I fall short no matter how hard I try
But you pick me up no matter what
I hide and hesitate in shame
But you know me better than I myself
So you always place forgiveness in my mist
Super gratitude 🙏
Your welcoming ways
Encourages me to keep seeking good
And take all the strength I have to consciously do what is right
I’m just so humbled that your eyes are so accepting to the grey areas of my life
And that you take into consideration
Me as a whole
Not only the generous amount of bad choices I’ve made
But you see my hearts desire to be color in a black and white world with grey areas
