"In the same way death spread to all men because all sinned."
I can't imagine enslaving a man,
because his skin is black or tan.
I can't imagine letting a baby die
before he's had a chance to cry.
I can't imagine people inhaling poison gas,
Hatred swiftly killing whole families en masse.
I can't imagine selling innocent children for sex.
I can't imagine a knife slicing people's necks.
I can't imagine yelling crucify,
and condemning Jesus to die.
I can't imagine just standing by.
What is the opposite of the word deny?.
IS IT I LORD?
Have my thoughts, words or my actions ever denied Love?
Have I ever stood by while justice, mercy and truth were denied?
I may only be a sojourner in this world, but I can't be a denier. I'm responsible, I'm accountable - to me belong the guilt and shame. No longer can I ask; "IS IT I LORD?" I know the Truth and the Truth has set me free. My eternal fate is sealed, indelibly etched in the heart of God. I've been made in the image and likeness of God. He sent His son to take on the guilt of all mankind. Should I be anything less as a believer in Christ?
Thanks for your time. Go do something nice for somebody.
Jesus loves you and so do we.

We confess that we have sinned, that we have lived bad lives.
Following the lines of what you have always done in setting things right, setting people right, please stop being so angry with Jerusalem, your very own city, your holy mountain.
We know it’s our fault that this has happened, all because of our sins and our parents’ sins, and now we’re an embarrassment to everyone around us.
We’re a blot on the neighborhood.
So listen, God, to this determined prayer of your servant.
Have mercy on your ruined Sanctuary.
Act out of who you are, not out of what we are.
“‘Turn your ears our way, God, and listen.
“‘Turn your ears our way, God, and listen.
Open your eyes and take a long look at our ruined city, this city named after you. We know that we don’t deserve a hearing from you.
Our appeal is to your compassion.
This prayer is our last and only hope:
“‘Master, listen to us!
Master, forgive us!
Master, look at us and do something!
Master, don’t put us off!
Your city and your people are named after you:
You have a stake in us!’
“‘Master, listen to us!
Master, forgive us!
Master, look at us and do something!
Master, don’t put us off!
Your city and your people are named after you:
You have a stake in us!’
