Encouragement.

The Gift of Love and Life

Lying on the cross
Bloody Pulp of heaven
The Saviour of Love
And a chance given

Renewing of hope
Nailed onto a dead tree
Brewing tears into life
Forsaken for me

Forgiveness taught in gruesome—
Tale of Redemption
He comprehended
The cycle of destruction

He knew history and eschatology
And in seeing all
He still decided it was worth it
To give dashed creation more

It took so much for so little
A birth—
I cannot comprehend
But I will try to love

If I was given a chance
To live as He did
I could try to emulate
But never live up to it

I am given life
Sometimes, I feel like packing
But then, I am reminded
He was not paid for loving
