I am

I am
Created in the likeness of Him
I've been 
corrupted and disfigured 
By sin
Forged out of chaos
Scars covers my skin
Both on the outside 
and deep within

So much pain 
have I endured 
that it has 
become a 
comforting friend...
my home!
Better to feel pain 
than to feel alone
Harsh words are
a warm blanket
To me...
A Comfort zone
 
I'm so confused...

I was made in the image of 
Him

But what have I become?
If HE is beautiful 
that would make me 
beautiful too
Then why is it when 
she sees me...
only the ugly Shows through?

Lord strip me of  these impurities
Forgive me of my iniquities 
Shield me from the enemy
Father please, Heal me!

Take away these 
unpleasantries 
Remove all doubt from me
Let those are close, see 
the real me
Let the YOU resinate outward
from deep inside 
of me

I am asking all this of you Lord,
Because...

I was made in the 
image of HIM 

and HE lives within...
Me!
