In my wallowing place
muddied in sorrows,
sin’s soil did gladly take on the
shape of me.

Faults too to blatant
to be ignored were therefore
justified.

My internal mirror caked,
cracked and loudly disputing reality
let accountability hide behind deception
but even more grim were those liabilities
that lay buried deeply under the layers
of my own perception.

Reaching down with Redemption’s Grace
You found me. Your love lifted me;
my transgressions fell away like debris
as if I were brand new again.
They were forgotten.

Gently You cradled me
as one of your own children. Loved
just as if
I deserved to be.

Indeed, indeed ... His Love covers us completely~

When you write your faith ...
you not only move mountains, you move me~

The sunlight on the garden when the door is finally opened, is indeed, a most glorious thing.
