The Sinner Man

Dear Editor,

Born in sin, shaped in iniquity. It's our true colours that reflect our identity. Despising the bad and fearing the ugly, it's the true essence that makes us who we are. We can only apologise after being disguised, purposely living the lifestyle of a baby child for all the days of our lives.

Sinners are who we are, and why are we fighting ourselves? Can't you feel we are stumbling to serve someone else? Feeling ashamed makes us look insane – that causes us to break and lose hope. Guilty of a crime that causes us to lose time, we choose to be oppressed, dramatic and violent – patronised with self-pity, looking for sympathy from somebody.

Who says the sinner man is never heard? For when he speaks, we all become terrified with visions of horror appearing from deep within.

With a mask on his face exposing his inner ways, demonstrating a weapon of mass destruction! Finally I see the light. It's a fight – it's all about fame, popularity and money that resolves in jealousy and envy. The only way to survive is modesty. After all, we are living in a modern society.

We're all striving for perfection. That's why we fall, and if it wasn't for sin we would conquer it all.

I wanted all the riches, power and glory to be mine, and the reason I fall is that I couldn't pretend to be God all the time.

Stand up! Oh sinner man, stop being a child. If you keep sitting down, your lamp will burn out of oil.

Stop with your childishness and be a man. I have already given you my Grace to overcome the Sinner Man.

Macklon Davis
