Here is a poem I read by Moses Chase
I've failed again.
I thought it would be different this time:
I was determined to act the way I wanted,
and that thought made me glad.
Now I am low.
I want to pick myself up and forget it.
to tell myself,
" So what,you are only human.
You'll do better next time."
But will I?
will I do better next time?
If I get this right, I will fail at something else.
Everywhere I look,
I find people wanting more of me than I am able to give.
There is no escaping it.
Life bristles with rules and regulations and expectations.
And if you think you have to measure up
in order to be worth anything,
you may as well admit it:
You''re wothless.
Worthless
What does Jesus has to do with us?
Most of my friends think that He is just more rules.
Good rules sure:
what's the diffrence if I don't measure up?
But my friends are wrong this time.
What Jesus is really about,most of all,
is forgiveness and love.
No matter what.
