Forgiven

When Jesus saw their faith, he said, "Friend, your sins are forgiven."
Luke 5:20

When i read this verse yesterday. Something hit me really hard.
It's by Grace that people are forgiven, but it is Faith that brings Grace to people.
However, it'll be a great pity if someone knew Christ, and chose not to have faith.

Condemned

Scorned by death,
Grieved by sin.
There's no pardon,
To where i've been.

My heart is heavy,
And my legs weary.
My body's weak,
And my eyes teary.

Here i lie,
With a sin-plagued mind.
Seeking for forgiveness,
That i'll never find.

If only i knew,
That God above.
Who gave his life,
For nothing but love,

God & Isaac
