I keep failing
Yet you forgive me
Over and over again
I keep straying
Yet you look after me
Everyday
I forget about you
Yet you never forget me
Never
I try to do it on my own
Yet you still look after me
No matter what I do
I try to hide my shame
Yet you show me it
And you forgive me right away
I constantly apologize
Yet you always welcome me back
With open arms
I say: “It won’t happen again.”
Yet you know it will
And you’ve already forgiven me
I’m tired of this constant failure
Yet you never tire
Of loving me
I want to leave
Yet you tell me to stay
With you
I want to give up
Yet you still believe in me
Enough to make me try again and again
I try to earn my way
Yet I’m learning
You don’t work that way
I fail many times
Yet you’re always there to catch me
And forgive and love me
I think I’ve failed too many times
Yet you reassure me that I haven’t failed enough
And that I never will
But, why?
Why are you so good to me?
Here’s the answer I’ve found to that question (it’s also what inspired this post):

Thanks for reading!
I hope this post sparks you to think about the bigger picture.
I promise adventure posts are coming! I’m just in a thinking frame of mind lately before I start my next adventure!

We’re not completely fixed yet. But one day God will complete the work & there will be no more failures.
