Ezekiel 16:6-7
“And when I passed by you and saw you wallowing in your blood, I said to you in your blood, ‘Live!’ I said to you in your blood, ‘Live!’
I made you flourish like a plant of the field. “
Abba,
Thank you for loving us.
Oh what gracious God for breathing us into existence,
For inscribing our names into the Book of Life.
Abba, forgive us for forgetting You.
Forgive me the ways I have whored Your beauty,
Whored Your musical gifts,
Whored Your body,
Whored Your heart.
I am because you sent your son to die on the cross.
Why would you do that for someone like me?
I will never fathom the love you must have for me.
I am unworthy, yet you spoke “Live!” to me!
I can walk with You because of that good news!
I used to think everyday was just another opportunity for fixing me.
Now I know You only want one thing…
Love from the one used to be wallowing in blood.
