Clean

Clean is what I am
Clean is how I feel
The dirt and grime of my past
Traded in for the sparkle and glow of my future
I hid my shame guilt and regret
Hoping it would fade away in the distant sky
Heavy with the weight of sin
I wanted to be clean but didn't know how then.......
JESUS


In a moment I confessed my sins
The weight lifted off
Although some of the dirt was caked on and caused pain when it came off
It was well worth it.
Issues are not issues anymore
The past is not holding me down with its rusty chains
Now I use those broken chains to tell people of how Jesus set me free
I am clean

Why wait

Bachelor parties as a married man can remind you of things.  In this case nothing naughty (smile).  So somewhere between the groom licking a kiwi and us men playing street fighter.  The elder statesmen of marriage spoke some wisdom to the young cats.  We talked about don't wait to teach your kids.  Why do parents teach their kid how to walk before they know how to.  Teach their kid how to share before they know how to.  Teach their kid how to be a 6 year old when the kid is 4.  Because they are excited to see their child grow.  Then the child hits 8-10 and all of the sudden the teacher is nowhere to be found.  Why do you seem to be surprised when the child wants you to teach them how to be a pre-teen or teen before they reach that age?  It's almost saying I was never a teacher why are you looking at me.  You know what gets parents, fear.  So here are some excuses parents have used.  Why would I tea...
