Well, here we go again...no really, this poem is, again, stemmed from experiences on my current job. Being exposed so much to the way we, as Christians, pray I realize how often we put ourselves at the center of our Christian walk and how little concern we really have for God.
We walk before the throne
Presenting all to selfish need
Inglorious desires within us grown
Paying almighty God little heed
Convinced that, in holiness, we stand
Our prideful worth, by our arrogance, assured
Never are we guided by his holy hand
But instead our haughtiness we gird
Thinking nothing of our self-serving notions
We listen not to God's good will
Ever guided by oh so fickle emotions
Our own self-made plans we seek to fill
In bitter egotism we lie
Assured of our self-made righteousness
For his blessing, but not his will, we cry
Having no other concern in our unending pridefulness
