My heart in in Christ, but more importantly my faith rest in Jesus. When I said my heart is in the church I was not saying my faith is in the church. I was merely saying that I still have an affinity for the corporate worship environment that brought so much joy in my past, and good memories of my family.
I returned from church one Sunday feeling very unworthy and fun-fulfilled, very much under attack by Satan. I sat down and wrote this:
My savior is with me thou I struggle
In my heart with him I abide
Though in sin I've toiled through my trouble
He never has left from my side
And I know before my final hour
That within him secure I will be
That my faith like a blossoming flower
Will bloom forth for my God to see.
Yet in this life filled with much bleakness
I pray to my God above
Lord judge me not for my weakness
But Father for only my love
For on that day when you open the book
Despite all of the errors I've made
I know on one of the pages you'll look
To see I was worthy of the price that you paid.
What a beautiful piece! Love it! Your words sum it up perfectly. Ahhh...I get what you are saying now about the church! I can very much relate! HE hears us. We are all struggling. Once awake we can’t go back.
