Flawless
I’m not flawless
I choke
I wait
For something to change me
Why can't I break free
But
I'm not flawless
I'll fall
I'll fail
My ship won't sail
I'm not flawless
I've only fallen
Still can get up
I'm not forgotten
I can face this
I still can change this
I thought I had it all figured out
I thought my life secure, no doubt
Can’t stand in anyone’s else’s shoes, cuz you really don’t know what they’ve been forced to move
And everyone sees it differently
I’m not flawless
It’s ok if days I say, “I ain’t got this.”
I can still face another day
Remembering, it’s by grace I am saved
Not
my past
my present
my thoughts
my actions
my fears
my hopelessness
my broken life
or anything else
I choose to exchange grace for
I can earn grace
I can’t do anything to live around, it or pray about it, kneel down and stand up enough times, kiss a robe, salute the flag, stand up for, “Christian” values, kneel on a rug, have a prayer revival…
None of this matters...I can’t earn it
It doesn’t matter if I failed or sinned
It’s ONLY by grace through faith
A GIFT of God
I’m not flawless
I have many days I feel I ain’t got this
Can’t get it all straight
Living life behind a locked gate
Days I feel I’ve lost my faith
But I’m not flawless
And that’s ok
