Transform Me

I stand here once again in the shame of my sin.
My head hanging low.
The pain rips away at my soul. It takes my breath away.
I cry out in desperation, searching for mercy and feel a peace flood my soul and the reassurance that I am forgiven.
I look around but there is no one there, yet it feels as though someone is holding me close.
I feel your love surround me and stand amazed.
I'm amazed that you love me.
I'm amazed that, although you don't need me, you want me.
I'm amazed that you call me your friend, more so that you call me your child.
In myself, I am worthless, undeserving of your love.
But through your grace, I am made worthy.
When you look at me, you don't see all the stupid things I've done, but you see your Son.
God, take my life. Take everything I have and everything I am. Transform me.
