AN IMPERFECT MAN

AN IMPERFECT MAN
A descendant of Adam a man perfect but fell into imperfection by sin
The love of a woman caused him to fall and set a trend
The missing rib that became an eternal companion moved his heart and betrays father and friend
I call it loving deeper than a man can in an imperfect manner

I am an imperfect man… I love to the best of my ability
I sin unwillingly like the next man but I acknowledge the work to be a better man a hard road
I am my worst enemy because the sinful inclinations within move me to sin… fall short
I look in the mirror at a man with foulness in his blood because my father passed it on this sin within
Yet I strive to love the way the son of man says we should
But my way is imperfectly with issues within as my heart misses beats like a broken record

I pray for forgiveness daily as I am aware of my shortcomings
My growth can only be with the knowledge of the most high as I know I have his love
His son showed how to love with his love a sacrifice for all
I show my love with the sacrifice of my heart to the ones I love
Hatred has it place because many chose to give in to the force behind it
Yet every day I pray for strength to rebuke those forces and push on to love like no other

An imperfect man seeking to love perfectly
Tears filled with emotions of a man trying harder day after day to move closer to approval by the Heavenly Father above all
His mercy is shown on a grand scale and shown in the ultimate sacrifice of his only begotten son
I am but an imperfect man with an inclination to give a perfect love
So if I fail to say I love you or show the softer side of my soul… I am sorry because I am just an imperfect man
But rest assure I love you as if my life depended on it and my soul will never rest as you are my Eve and I am Adman a man born to love you but weighed down with sin as it flows through my blood
