Even I He Needs

You gifted me with your love.

That I know now came from above.

Why me? Unworthy of even a notice.

With love so ferocious.

I denied you willingly.

Yet you chased me continually.

I embraced the sin of your enemy.

And at my worst you assured me I was still your tendency.

To always have a trace of your love within my heart.

So that even I could re-start.

A journey to peace, and the pain I cause to cease.

Knowing that I am pitiful man.

With scars on my hands.

As I wear tear-stained shirts.

That even I may stop the hurt…

If I…would listen to your beckoning call

So, I could be your all.

To somehow be loved.

By not a father that discarded me…

But by one who truly needs me.

To be…

His.

So, as I see me in them…I can…accompany their walk to Him…

So, they like me…can begin…to be Born Again.
