Unqualified!

poem by: Roxanne Dubarry
Written on Dec 29, 2016

Need I ever wander why I consider myself unqualified.
I could never measure up to my own expectations.
Continually failing because of my own limitations.

I do not measure up to God's classification
as a born again Christian.
Wavering back and forth from having
doubts to believing in him.

Do I really believe in God's ability
to forgive my habitual sins?
Is he really both LORD as
well as savior of my life?

Have I surrendered all to Jesus
Christ? I have confessed
him as both my savior
and my LORD.
He could never tell
by my inconsistent spiritual
life.

Can I claim to be an ambassador 
of the LORD Jesus Christ?
Will he even acknowledge me
when I finally behold him face to face?

Am I destined to open the heart's
doors of nonbelievers?
Without ever opening up mine?
Has he ever really
unlocked the keys
to my heart's door?

I need to do much more
than confess my sins,
I need to repent and
forsake them!

Love in Christ Jesus!
