Just another sinner, and the beast wants me for dinner

			formally brett007 of the previous BT forums...GLAD TO BE BACK!
Ok.....words do not and cannot explain...they are completely inadequete and lacking the spirit of love and freedom I feel at being given eyes to see "spiritual things" roughly a year or so ago.....but here goes.....I find that I can express my heart and soul much more deeper when writing in Verse so I hope this testimony touches someone out there in some way who can perhaps relate to it...
---------------------------------------------
I tried to keep, that "water baptised & spotless ME"
free from lust, hate and greed...
I tried to boast this mighty prize myself
and lift it up with a name I held....Jesus...
I wanted to ask, did I do well? 
and completely avoid hell, with my pentecostal denomination & religion? 
and so I "chose" to cast these chains of sin away "myself",
to find "my grace" in this bold, self-claimed way (or so I thought....)
Little did I know, that I knew naught,
Was it just a simple thirst?  No a major draught!!
I was dying quick, a spiritual pang so deep!
God brought me to a stand still on my knees, and I was made to "SEE"....that I saw nothing, NOTHING at all
What a powerful testimony to my heart inside,
just yesterday was stone, but now warm and so alive
what a most meaningful way, for God to reveal
the hidden things of God, that just yesterday I simply seeked to steal
Oh God, why me? A hyprocrite on my better of days
Why now IN THIS, fleshly bag of clay?
I can't resist wickedness, 'cept FIRST your chastening grace, 
So I pray bring it on!  Bring it on TODAY! Today! Today!
Oh Christ, my God, my true first love.
I thank you for these blessed "eyes" from you high above 
I pray that you overcome this beast my carnality and flesh does LIKE
Oh Lord, crucify my flesh, and wound this beast, with a killing STRIKE.
Praise GOD!  
Pray for me please!!
