Jesus

I am weak and helpless, the lion stands ready to devour me.  I pray that your love heal me and save me from myself.  Had I only known early in my life that God has a plan for me, and He wants me to obey His law, I might not have strayed.  Had my parents only taught me your will and your ways, I might not have been seduced by sin.  Now I stand alone and the roots of sin are deep in me and have their hold on me.  I am in bondage to sin.  How can I love you God while the flesh consumes me?  

If Jesus could only touch me, heal me and cure me.  But alas, I have my cross to carry, and as an adult I must serve You, the choice is mine, and mine alone.  Satan has made it easy and I do not understand my own destruction that lie ahead should I continue to stand in contempt of the one true God, creator of all!  How can one ever understand fire and brimstone lest he suffer it?  This is not your will.

I am a sinner God, I have always been.  Yet I know that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the Messiah, can save me from myself and the certain death that lie ahead.  Not knowing how He will save me is what scares me, my heart is confused and in bondage to sin.  I do not want to serve sin, yet at the very beck-and-call of temptation I follow and become distracted.  Obviously, if I follow Jesus, God will not ever lead me into temptaion as is written: "...and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from all evil."  Yet that is my weakness Jesus, I do not stand innocent before you, like sheep feeding in green pasture.  I stand before you in the mouth of the lion, who has sought to devour me all my life, and he has deceived me to thinking it is ok and convinces the flesh of pleasure.  

Jesus, I stand before you, weak, weary and helpless, alone and not able to stand on my own.  I want to walk with you Jesus and shed my wicked ways that defy God and His will. The devil tempts and distracts me so that God's will is not done, yet I see the signs in the world.  The time is near Jesus, please lift me up Jesus.
