Unveiled Love

My life at one time, though it seemed to be good,
By no means did I know, or understand what I should.
My heart was veiled over, by sins of my past,
So many beyond counting, my soul was downcast.

The days seemed so long at times, nights even worse,
If only my thoughts could be pure, not perverse.
My soul cried out longing, for deliverance from within,
Not knowing, all I needed, was forgiveness from sin.

I searched as things worsened, trying to stay sane,
But the guilt seemed to multiply, and so did my shame.
I cried a lot hoping, the pain would just leave,
All I knew to do then, was to pray and receive.

I learned as a child, or I thought it this way,
By believing in Jesus, He was with me to stay.
Not knowing that by faith, I had to repent and believe,
And most important of all, bow down and receive.

When I learned my Lord's plan, life's true gospel way,
By the power of His Love, He unveiled me that day.
Now I'm freed by the Spirit, transformed by His Love,
Reflecting the Son's Glory, from heaven above. . . .

Dear Lord,
Help us to make time in our busy schedules to get alone within the still of your love, a place of "unveiling worship."
Love, Tammie
