My Declaration

by Andy Wood on November 5, 2010

in 100 Words

(You can make it yours, too.)

Because of God’s unsparing love for me,

I am a new creation of infinite worth.

I am chosen to live because He wanted me.

I am destined for a purpose because He called me.

I belong to his family because He connected me.

I am righteous in his sight because He covered me.

I am beautiful to behold because He crafted me.

Whenever my lifestyle, loneliness or looks

Try to condemn or accuse me,

I will raise the banner He purchased in blood,

And find my peace in His victorious love.

I AM my Beloved’s, and He is mine!

Know what it is?

I’ll tell you in a minute.

Don’t you love how even the seeming imperfections of each petal all come together to form a beautiful whole?

How even the “rough edges” all come together in a symphony of striking color?

How whatever that seed part in the middle is called (I’m no botanist) suggests the amazing reproducible wonder of future life? Future potential? Even more beauty?

Figured out what it is yet, Mr. Green Jeans?
