    The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly~Day 2 of The 30 Day Blog Challenge

    (Image Source) Hello lovely readers and followers! Welcome back to Day 2 of the 30 Day Blog Challenge.  Today’s Topic: Emily–The good, the bad, and the ugly. That’s quite a lot to write about yourself in one post, but I think I can do it in a poem! “Emily–The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly” I am bad. My sins running red With every lie I’ve ever told And every part of myself I’ve tried to destroy.   I am ugly.

We open our hands And stretch our faith, Helping our fellow neighbor.   On this day We put our differences aside. We open our minds To the freedom of forgiveness And the gift of grace.   Let this day Last longer than just a meal. Let this day Become our anthem.   As we sing of the King Who made Himself small, To give us new life On this day–   And for all eternity.   Written by Emily Smith at…
