Still
Called Today
He swore to follow to
the death.
He swore to remain
faithful.
After the rooster
crowed thrice,
He discovered himself
to be a liar.
A follower of Christ
from the start,
Witnessing His
miracles first hand,
Seeing Him calm the
raging sea,
Himself walking on
water with Christ,
He never guessed he
would betray Him.
When He did, the
guilt that overtook him.
As he walked by the
seaside.
His heart torn.
His spirit shaken.
His faith
questionable,
Would Christ still
use him?
Did he fail too
badly?
Commit the
unpardonable sin?
How his heart jumped
at His appearance,
Jesus had forgiven
him and restored him.
He found out that
Christ never lost hope.
Still called him to
serve,
How I have failed God
repeatedly.
Denying Him in my
life,
After being delivered
from hell,
Healed in my mind,
My emotions,
How it seemed I
strayed too far.
Thinking God had no
more use for me.
Failed Him too many
times,
I walked by the
seaside of life,
My heart broken.
My spirit shaken.
My faith
questionable,
Many times Christ
appeared to me.
Forgiving me,
Restoring me,
Never once lost hope
in me.
Showed me I am still
His.
No matter how many
times we fail,
Deny God in our
lives.
Think God has no more
use for us.
Failed Him too many
times,
Walked along the sea
sides of life.
With our hearts
broken,
Our spirits shaken,
Our faith
questionable,
Christ will appear to
us.
Forgiving us,
Restoring us,
Reminding us, He
never lost hope.
Reminding us, we are
still called today.
