Gentle Kisses
I stare at my hands,
My sins are like scarlet
I tried, I really did
But I just cannot keep my hands clean.
I run my hands down my disfigurements
Each scar, each pain, each imperfection
tears, rejection, fear, anger.
infect my body, my soul
I was never whole.
and never will be.
It hurts so much
to be the bearer of such pain
Yet it hurts even more
when normalcy is expected.
My soul was from the very pits.
Birthed from rejection
brought up with tears.
Blinded with pain.
But You, Jesus
Creator of heaven and earth.
The Name above all names
The King of all Kings.
Notice my suffering
even in my mother's womb
Saw the hold of sin upon my life
Noticed the first fallen tear.
And You, You came
from Your throne in heaven
You came running for me
me in my sorrows and filthiness.
You kiss away
all the hurt and pain
You broke the walls
and came close to me.
In Your grace
You extended Your acceptance
In Your mercy
You washed me clean.
In the stripes You bore
I saw my healing.
In Your eyes
I saw, Lord I saw that You understood
In Your scarred hands
I saw my sins taken away.
In Your heart,
I saw that you loved me.
Just the way I am.
Embracing me
overtaking me
wanting me
Loving me
As my heart heals
I bear the seal of Your presence
My life will turn to magnify You.
My soul will dance and sing in joy.
And I will love You,
With abandonment.
My Jesus
body, soul and spirit.
I know You are watching over me
I am in Your arms.
Always have been.
Always will be.

"My child, I accept you. Run to Me."
"You gently kiss my brow, and whisper it's alright."
