Gathering the Broken Pieces

Like those bones in the valley My life was scattered all over Each person that came in my life cut a little piece of me and left with it Each cut piece left a deep wound And i was left in a pool of blood Rotting in my own world Dieing between thumbs like a tick Then he came Found me in tatters of shame Like garbage on the street Piece after piece he picked me up The Lord Jesus gathered me together a pillar of rejected junk He looked at my shy eyes and smiled That day his love started to heal me wound after wound pain after pain And all the shame was gone Then he brought you To deal with this trauma He knew a mom was the best He brought you to shine hope to a dark soul God knew its you that would touch The scars and never create wounds again He wanted me to know that with Him all things are possible So he brought you mom Your love is pure I have been drawn more to Christ And i know now He has gathered all my scattered pieces Dedicated to Cinda Carter

I don't think I ever read one of your poems, I am glad I read this one. It is beautiful. With Jesus in our lives - everything is possible. Your mom must be very proud of you. May god bless you always... Lucilla
