Thank you

I resisted God's invitation

On numerous occasions

Found myself in many dark situations

I wouldn't go to church..read the bible or anything...my excuse was.."God knows my heart"

But I was so reluctant to play my part

I didn't want to do it

Didn't want to pursue it

Even in my youth

I found ways to twist the truth

I lied

Cheated

Did things for selfish reasons..

Didn't put God first

So in everything I did..it would go from bad to worse

Full of pride.. my anger would curse

God..spiraled into a bout of self pity even depression

Because I refused to learn my lesson

I contemplated suicide

Driven by anger..hate and pride

My thoughts were focused only on me

Not my kids..my family...just me

Then God hit me with reality

By my own destructive ways I was homeless

Jobless

Pennyless...

Without relying on God I wouldn't survive

I thought it was something

Without God I'm nothing

I'm not ashamed

To proclaim

My faith

To let it be known

That God has shown

Me so much mercy

And I can't say nothing but Thank you
