It happened in a moment
a simple choice
to placate my own desire
My spirit willing
but my flesh weak
And I remembered the lonely question
to His best friends--
"Could you not keep watch for just one hour?"
I am just as fleshly
Filled with shame, remorse, sadness,
I wallow
Until I recall another moment
when Jesus too wanted--
NO!
was desperate
to yield to flesh
but chose instead
His Father's will
For the likes of me
This solitary moment
changed history forever
His "yes"
covers all of my
"no's
His sacrifice--
Extreme
Perfect
Extravagant
For love of
you
and
I
