Soiled
My heart,
what happened to you?
From the
inside you look
dark and
dirty.
Year in and
year out
I have soiled
you more and more.
All the
dirty thoughts
that all
too often
lead to
dirty actions.
Nasty
words,
hurts and
mean statements
have left
their marks on my heart.
Now my conscience
is accusing me,
my heart screams
loudly
for I have
not kept it pure.
More and
more I am lacking
the joy in
life.
No
distraction lasts long enough
to silence
my screaming heart.
In order to
hide my dirt
I have put
on many masks
and have
become quite the skilled actor.
But when I
am honest with myself
I feel like
crying
because my
heart has become
hard like a
stone.
Life has
lost its beauty.
My joys do
not last
and what
remains
is emptiness
and dirt.
Oh how much
I would
like to
have a fresh start
and change
everything.
I totally
underestimated
how
important honesty is.
I never
thought about
how much of
a healing effect
good words
have.
For a long time I did not care
how
beneficial good thoughts are.
It was not
important for me
that I
should have worked
on all
those points from the beginning.
Oh God,
what did I make of myself?
What do YOU
think of me now?
I cannot
stand before YOU,
and depend
upon YOUR mercy
and YOUR
grace towards me.
I come to
you
with the
plea of forgiveness.
Cleanse me,
heal me,
lead me
and help me
to walk on
new and right paths.

Ezekiel
36:26-27 (The Israel Bible)
And I will
give you a new heart and put a new spirit into you: I will remove the heart of
stone from your body and give you a heart of flesh; 27 and I will put My spirit
into you. Thus I will cause you to follow My laws and faithfully to observe My
rules.
