*Sigh* So this piece of writing (typing) written over 4 years ago was the first ever sign I had that I could exclusively write to glorify God and to point people towards Him. It was at a point when I felt so unworthy and so unforgivable that I was even afraid to go into God's presence or allow Him to come into me in the way He only can. I know many people that have felt or feel that way, that they are beyond repair, beyond redeeming. I just want to encourage you that God is the Master Fixer. He can put our broken selves back together again and we would look so new as if we never were broken before, can I get an Amen!....? *gets the Amen* Because so many times we fall from the high wall we sit on and we break into pieces, like Humpty Dumpty, that all the king's men and the king's horses cannot put us back together...BUT THERE'S A KING OF KINGS!!

A Letter to Peter
In my mind I can't help but play and see over and over my prosecution proceedings
How I have been found guilty and unworthy.
Yet in my heart I know that you have forgiven me and renewed me.
My head and heart just won't unite to the fact
That I am now free to approach you.
Because you have taken my place in the guilty stand,
And served the sentence for me.
Pardon my unbelief, maybe my eyes need to see the scars in your hands.
That the wrongs I do are forgiven and forgotten, I cannot behold.
It is the reason you are God and I am just a mortal.
It is the reason I write this letter to Peter, pass it to Jesus...
That you have lifted me higher, just a little lower than the angels,
Still the reason for this I do not perceive. Maybe logic is my problem.
That you care for me more than the sparrows that you feed.
Myunbelief makes me ask for a wing, so I could also fly and be fed.
That you are mindful of me? My mind can't even stand me!
How do you still remember mercy when you think of me?
So now like a crowd, I follow foolishly to wherever your wisdom leads.
Like the cloud by day over the israelites, lead me to the Rock that is higher than I.
If this is what it takes for me to believe,
Then I become for you the sheep that walks to its slaughter.
Maybe that's how I get new life...
Don't read this letter Peter, just pass it to Jesus...
Sincerely...
Amen, that's a great prayer that every child of God will have prayed at one point or the other. "lead me to the Rock that is higher than I". I love it.
