~~
I have nothing to bring
yet you call out my name
desiring I come as I am
broken and scared
you desire my weak love
my unfaithful thoughts
you want all of me
Even in my unbelief
believing misery is my portion
you smile over me in all of this
you knew my weakness ‘s
before I even faced them
yet still you delighted in creating me
by grace you call me worthy of your love
you call me your delight
you call me your own
your daughter
I still have yet to grasp just what all this means
but as I allow myself to become more barren in your presense
the bandages I once put on my heart to stay safe
are slowly being pulled off with your love
barren
its the condition I am in
L.O.V.E.
