Sinner: Dear Sir, it seems that I’ve wandered far away from God,
away to my many imaginations and not to him. I have wandered into the lust of
my heart, into the pride of my soul and into the conceitedness of my condition.
This valley I have trodden far too long and in the end I have found that it
only brings about my drowning in the sea of flesh. O the misery to my spirit that
I have wasted many precious years which brings me now to repent with bitter
tears; but I find it hard to stay the course of righteousness. Dear Sir, please
help me for no more can my soul linger in the broad way for I am tired of sin
and straying. My soul is sick, my heart is sore; please my strength renew.
Sir: My poor son in the faith, far you have wandered into the
shadows of darkness but today come home. God is calling the prodigal, even though
you have wandered far from his presence, yet he is calling you back. I am glad
that you are sensible of your condition and do weep bitter tears for there are
many who would not shed a single drop of tear for their wandering into the
world. But you my son do display that the Spirit in you is grieving. Now, there
is not much I can do for you save this, that right now Christ is applying his
cleansing blood into your heart. He is dipping you into that precious fountain
that saves from sin, that precious fountain so rich and sweet, he is casting
your poor soul into it, plunging your filthiness into his righteousness. And do
not worry, you cannot stain his garment for he covers you with his
righteousness. Therefore my son, nothing keeps you back from his presence, come
home.
Sinner: Oh Thank you Sir, I do feel in my heart a warm sensation of
love. I do feel myself being washed as white as snow. O I am so glad that I
have entered into that fountain and came home into his presence. O for a
thousand joy and praise for Jesus.
