jesus wore sandals
come to me he said
come to me in rags
come to me barefooted
come to me smelling
of rotten flesh
broken and outcast
come to me dirty
and diseased
weak and trembling...
seek my face
glorify me,delight in my heart
be with me now and forever
come, just as you are
come to me in rags
come to me barefooted
come to me smelling
of rotten flesh
broken and outcast
come to me dirty
and diseased
weak and trembling...
seek my face
glorify me,delight in my heart
be with me now and forever
come, just as you are

Everybody and his dog knows that I'm not a Christian.... however, I think this piece sums up the beauty of belief that I really appreciate about Jesus (who was, above all, a peaceful kinda fella - he had some good ideas, and a good message. Can't fault that.)
This reminds us that we are not perfect, but by faith, we can be ourselves. We can be broken, bleeding, and imperfect. It doesn't matter as long as we have belief.
Good thought. Thank you for the read.
