Dear friends,
Here’s a devotional poem for today. It’s based on what God’s Word says in Romans 3:23:
Sin Poisoning
Poisoned!
Not by any clever assassin,
nor by any evil beast,
but by my own hand
is my life poisoned.
It was self-ingested.
Ignorant and arrogant,
I mixed a slurry of selfish sin
and, thinking it good for me,
drank the mixture in.
It’s a fatal poison
that kills both life and love.
I’ve tried to cure myself
(focused on self, self, self)
but I just made it worse.
Only One in all the world
has the cure I need.
The question now is,
will I humbly call that Doctor
and beg Him to be freed?
