I can hear the music for this, Patrick. It HAS to be roadhouse honky tonk with a pedal steel wailing in the background. It's the kind of song a youngish Loretta Lynn would make her own.

Just love in your own way, Patrick, spread light and a spirit of hope through your humor and personality.
You don't have to believe someone else's truth.
All of us have different purposes.

Patrick,
I'm sure you've heard the song, Jesus, Take the wheel. Just let him take the wheels of your life and straighten the crooked roads. This is a fantastic song/poem. Its a hit in my book.
Many blessings,

Someone said it well...like this:
"If we meet and you forget me,
you have lost nothing...But if
you meet Jesus Christ and forget
Him, you have lost everything"
Thanks to be the Glory of Your poem!!

As a non religious person and a non religious Jewish Person to boot, it never occurred to me to apologize to Jesus for... actually I have no idea what I would or should be apologizing for. Not, mind you, that I haven't done things throughout my seventy-seven years that I wish I hadn't, but they were of my own choice so there is nothing to apologize for. As for your poem, Patrick, as always a work of near genus.

When the wife's away the mind will stray.
This song sounds like a man in the process of figuring it all out.

yeah, Patrick, sincere and from the heart... I, too, have struggled with this attitude of which you speak... but the more I press in to really 'hear' what Jesus says to me about how much he loves me, how great is his mercy for me, how deep and long-lasting his peace, the more I realize that he forgives me so much, so why, oh why in the wide world can't I forgive... it's only a matter of pride that gets in the way anyway, and if we keep things in perspective, all that pride soon fades away... you've hit a mighty big nail with this bitter-sweet country tune, and I suspect the challenge for many is finding enough faith to accept the gift of God's forgiveness...
it is good to experience this type of contrition if it leads us to repentance and not grievous despair... whatever you do, don't let it take you there...
I got a good verse in the spirit the other day... Jude 2: May mercy, peace and love be yours in abundance. That is my prayer for you, Patrick.

I agree with Joyce. It is not hard to ask for forgiveness and peace.
BTW, Patrick fans, we are fine. I am in New Mexico caring for my aging father for a bit, and Patrick has lots of time without my blather to make him crazier. :0) Eileen |

FOR THE THOUGHT OF APOLOGIZING TO JESUS TO HAVE EVEN CROSSED ONE'S MIND MEANS...THEY DO CARE. AND IT'S SO SIMPLE TO SAY; 'I'M SORRY, JESUS FOR ALL MY SHORTCOMINGS', IS ALL IT TAKES. AND BELIEVE ME, PATRICK...I KNOW, BECAUSE I SAY IT EACH AND EVERY DAY. GREAT GUY, THIS MAN JESUS...HE DOESN'T CARE HOW OFTEN YOU HAVE TO GO TO HIM...AS LONG AS YOU DO...GO TO HIM - LIKE YOU DID...WITH AN OPEN, SINCERE HEART. THE WORD OF GOD WAS SURELY THINKING ABOUT ME WHEN IT SAID; '...GOD IS FAITHFUL TO GIVE US 'NEW MERCIES' FOR EACH NEW DAY.(LAM 3:22-23) THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS & FAITH...

Here’s hoping there's more poetic license at work here than biographical truth. I connected mostly to the second stanza. I think we've all been there and it seems no amount of remorse and no matter how heartfelt the apology, you just can't take back the sting of the words.
This was an interesting read Patrick, thanks Dick |
