Have you broken the law

You shall have no other gods before Me
You shall love Me and not ignore Me
To love God and your neighbour with all your soul
For this is the Law, not in part, but in whole
You shall not make an image of gold or of wood
For this is to worship, not as you should
To make an idol with hands or with mind
Is nothing but sin, when the true God you can find
You shall not use God's name in vain
You count it so lightly, must I explain
Do I need to show you chapter and verse
To know it's wrong to use His name as a curse
Remember the Sabbath, to keep it holy
The one Day in seven, to worship Him solely
One in seven the Day of your rest
One Day in seven to give Him your best
Honour your father and mother, God's promise is good
Respect and esteem them as you know you should
That your days on this earth may be long
That your body and soul may also be strong
When the law of the land says not to kill
God's Law goes deeper, further still
To hide in the heart bitterness and hate
'tis murder to God and will close Heaven's gate
In these days of sin and so little care
When adultery is disguised as just an "affair"
But know this O man, God sees your lust
If you want to live, then repent you must
We use soft words like "pinch" and "perks"
Man steals from him, for whom he works
What the boss doesn't see, he'll never know
But your sin against God continues to grow
How true, "the tangled web we weave"
When first we practice to deceive"
White lies and fibs make man a liar
Whose end is destruction in Hell's lake of Fire
The Tenth Commandment forbids man's greed
That insatiable lust he continues to feed
The monster called "want" destroys its prey
Consuming wife and children and all in its way
You've broken the Law and sinned against God
The path of rebellion your feet they have trod
O what can you do, to whom will you turn
You've angered your God, made His fury to burn
Are your eyes so dull and your ears, don't they hear
The Christ on the cross, all your sins He did bear
If you will not turn, that wrath is still due
Mercy despised will mean Justice for you
O blind, blind sinner when will you awake
Turn from your sin and Hell's Fiery Lake
Call upon Jesus who died for your sin
For He's Heaven's Door, the only way in

Wow AW what a wonderful poem.....
ive printed it out....it touched me so much,
How many times do i put something else before my quiet time with God? By doing that i'm actually making something else more important than Him. Forgive me Lord.
How many times do i get irritated with my neighbour? Even if i dont say it out loud, then i think it. Oh Lord, forgive me.
How many times have i wanted to retaliate against someone who has hurt me??? How many times have i 'forgotten' i should be an example of Your love???? Forgive me Lord.
How many times do i see something and just LOVE it and HAVE to have to make it, do it or have it???? Oh Lord, forgive me.
How many times do i take God's name in vain...oh how terrible i feel now, how small and dirty. Oh Lord forgive me. When things get too hard for me, and i get mad....then....oh forgive me Lord.
How many times have i stolen from the places i worked? Forgive me Lord. I am so humiliated now.
How many 'white lies' have i told 'so as not to hurt anyones feelings' ?
How many times have i tried to manipulate someone by bending the truth? Oh Lord forgive me this too.
You have seen every one of these things and more.
You have forgiven me, not because i deserve it, but because of Your love and Your grace.
How could You ever love a sinner like me?
All because of Your Son. You see me through the Blood of Your Son.
I worship You Lord God almighty. I bow down at Your feet and worship You.
Thankyou, thankyou for Your mercy .... for the greatest sacrifice of all time.....Jesus......Amen. Amen.
