ON BENDED KNEE.

""""""""""""""""""""""""""

Written by Stella C Mitchell. 

September 2023.

""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""


No excuses - casting 
Blame - or finding fault - will
Ever make us - all that we were born 
To be - but - self examination - truth and 
Deep contrition - bring us to the 
Place - where we will bow
Our head - and bend 
Our knee. 


For - only true humility
Will bring us to the throne of
Grace - where - the God of love - has
Paid the price - for you and me - so - let
Go of pride and self-inflation - and
Be willing then - to shed the
Tears - and bend 
The knee.


For - on our knees - in 
Deep contrition - will we see the
One upon the cross -  who suffered for
Our sin - yet - sin was not a part of his humanity
But - for our sake - He took the shame - so
Fallen man - throughout the world
Could  be set free - and
Bend the knee .


Yes  - free  from
Condemnation - death and Hell 
That we deserved - for all Eternity - but
Through forgiveness from our Saviour - we
Can sing the song of the Redeemed -
'Cos - we repented at His 
Feet - on bended
Knee .


Then - what a day of
Great rejoicing - when we know
Without a doubt - and no uncertainty 
That - the God of love and mercy - 
Has washed us clean - and 
Given us - new Life - 
And Liberty ...

And - all because -

We offered Him our lives forever -

At the cross of Calvary - with grateful

Hearts - and - bended knee ..

Amen , 

""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""


Many blessings to you all .. in these
troubled times  ..  especially as we 
hear of wars and rumours of wars .
just  as Jesus said we would
hear in the Last Days ..

I pray that many would turn to Him
in true repentance and contrite
hearts .. and then be assured 
of Salvation and Eternal
Life .

Blessings and Shalom 
X
