Holiness
by
Barbara Philbrook
Holiness on my
own would be an impossibility,
but I can attain it because The Holy Spirit abides in me.
I am incapable
of changing my behavior,
but through His help I can emanate Jesus my Savior.
I could not
overcome the human desires I possess,
but through Christ I can attain righteousness.
I could never
love unconditionally,
but it is now possible because of Jesus' love you see.
I would never
have turned the other cheek,
I would have retaliated as vengeance I'd diligently seek.
But now there is
no need to cause another pain,
through God's grace I'm now able to refrain.
I used to hurt
constantly due to pain inflicted by others,
but now I only ache to make all men my brothers.
I'm born anew.
I'm a new creature in my Lord,
and throughout eternity I'll sing the praises of our
loving God!
Holiness is now
a possibility,
because Jesus sent the Holy Spirit to abide in me.
Accept
salvation. Invite Jesus in,
then the changes in you too can begin.
