God's Good Grace

Many have said they can claim forgiveness
Just because they “believe” in Jesus.
This I am told assures them of Glory
And guarantees them an eternal story.

Yet, though I try, I am still a sinner
Not because I would not be a winner.
All my works may have been in vain,
For there are those I still cause pain.

Not meaning to do so, yet out of anger
I often place myself, by misdirection, in danger.
It is this that has made me realize this earthly space,
Will never allow me Heaven, only God's Good Grace.
