There is a skill that I’ve been trying to learn for most of my life. It is the skill of quickly admitting when I am wrong, making amends where possible, and humbly changing my thoughts and behaviors to align with what is right.
The most underdeveloped skill among human beings it the skill of listening to and obeying our conscience. The best way to develop that skill is to train yourself to continually open your heart and be led by God’s Spirit.
As I lay sleeping,
I suddenly woke up
With this call to repentance
Forming in my mind.
When your choices
Knock you down
Choose to back up
And to get back up.
Don’t just lay around
And wallow in sin
Until you drown
With your heart
Not right with God.
Turn around,
Step up,
And stand firmly
With Christ
On solid ground
At the Cross.
Turn down
The temptation
To not step up
To God’s plate,
The Cross of Christ.
Your heart will be bright
When the risen Jesus
Is your sky light.
If Christ is in you, be an outlet. Let His glory freely flow to others. It’s not too late to wake up!
