Confession Is Good for the Soul

Written by Sherry Ausby

Confession is good for the soul...

I Praise God because He will always be the head of my life...

I faulter because I'm not perfect.

I repent because I know I need His forgiveness.

He sees me in a lighter cast when it seems I've embraced darkness,"He becomes The Light."

I am responsible for me and any actions that I choose.Yet I still know Who My Redeemer is, and because He lives, I can face tomorrow.

I smile when I'm hurting, but I can still pull from the strength that He has given me.

I get very, very lonely at times and I'm not waiting on perfect because it doesn't exist. However, I will not accept what will not grow with me, and I hope that I will do the same for my new "him."

I have my days that I want to throw a pity party all day long and just do nothing at all.

I'm grateful for my craft (My Poetry). It gives me so much fulfillment, it gives me life.

Sometimes I wish I could bottle it up and marry it...let it be my husband and I it's wife.

Scripture Meditation
