Can grace be birthed?
I live in the brokenness,
I live in the mystery.
I live in imperfection,
I am human: that’s me.
So, why did I continue to wear
The yoke of slavery?
Continue again and again to tear,
Myself down when You tried to love me?
Only with humility,
Can I accept Your love,
Only with Your sovereignty,
Can grace be birthed; free your dove!

Lent is the practice of sacrifice (going without) and remembrance. This year, I am giving up chocolate and will try to write a poem in my new “Lent Collection” each day. Enjoy!
