Personalizing

Eon
If you have broken one of my commandments you have broken all.
Personally, I  strive to remain steadfast and firm but I still fall. 
I am reminded that if I don't love my fellow man whom I see 
How can I say that I love the one who died on the cross for me?

I think sometimes I am so hypocritical and judgmental too 
My mindset needs to change and my overall point of view
I let my politics and my party dictate what I can and cannot do
His Scripture says that I am commanded to love you for you!

I try to interpret the Bible in a way that is convenient to me 
If I add or subtract to His Word I know there is a penalty. 
But despite knowing there are consequences for my sins
I am no different than the Israelites and their disobedience. 

If I could change one thing about me, it would be my thoughts
Many times my mind won't stop working and misery it brought
I say I love the Lord but do the opposite of what I am taught
Set my sights on heavenly things and remove this distraught!
