260 I Wish to Offer True Love to God
In my many years of faith, I have always expended myself for God.
I would put my life on the line, to follow God to the very end.
God’s words and exhortations are imprinted on my heart.
For God, I would sacrifice my youth with no regrets.
When trials came upon me, I failed, stumbled, and was revealed.
Only then did I finally realize that one cannot stand firm without the truth.
Without God’s judgment, I would never have known myself;
I would still be living under the influence of Satan, and I would misunderstand and complain about God.
Only now do I see how corrupted I have been by Satan.
For God, I have lacked even the slightest bit of true love.
I thought I understood the truth because I could preach certain words and doctrines.
I showed off like the hypocritical Pharisees.
I am regretful, why couldn’t I repay God’s love?
I am ashamed, I dare not show my face before God.
God’s judgment and chastisement allowed me to attain His great salvation.
I have resolved to seek to love God and bear testimony to Him forever.
