Take Me As I Am

Take me as I am, down here upon the floor..I am sinking under quickly..these tears have stained my face for far too long, and I have nowhere to go but unto the feet of Your glorious Cross..You meet me here with all that is within me--this confusion,the rage that seizes my soul, that which is trying to steal me away from You! I stand up and say No! My voice cries out.." Let there be nothing that takes me away from You Oh Lord! I don't want the lies to eat at me, I don't want his face to consume me, I don't want my impulsive desires to be my guide! This torment shall not be in vain, for through it, I will help those around who suffer from the reality of the darkness that floods the yes with untruth..this then is how we stand..we must flood our eyes with the truth, the illustrious promises of our Lord--He meets us where we are, and He cries with us. He knows our pain, feels it, embraces us as we feel death at our next sigh. Oh Glorious and Risen Savior! I thank thee for giving me a reason to live. Thank you for placing people within my life who speak truth and promise! My breath is taken away as I meditate upon Your holiness, the death You died to give me new life! I choose to walk in Your freedom, and I choose to fight for You, to fight for my life, and to fight for others!
