God's Love

Beat, broken, defeated, Those are just a few ways I could be described. Saved, redeemed, protected, Those are the reasons I am alive. I am just a simple sinner Who has been battered and bruised. I have fallen short often, Used others and been used, But God looked at me And saw potential in my flaws. Although I still mess up, God continues to see what He saw. On days when I see no reason, He is my reason for living life. When I feel stuck and can't find it, God is my love and my light. For each time I mess up, God's love for me seems to grow. His love, grace and mercy Measure more than I could ever know. I am just a simple sinner Who has been battered and bruised. I still fall short often, But God's love continues.
