Love, Your Father Poem by Stephanie Hazle

Love, Your Father

Rating: 5.0


The whole world is hurting
And yet many do not bemoan
To Me.
They find many false ways of coping
Until they become blinded
Unable to perceive their pain.

But not you, my beloved.
You run to me in your anguish
You cry out, arms outstretched
And I hear your call
I have cried with you
I feel your pain.

But I don't only feel it
I bear it today, as I bore it at Calvary
Once and for all.
Run to me darling
I know how to carry this weight
And to me, it's not heavy

I have come that you may truly live
Freely and powerfully
Not as a victim, or as spoiled goods.
But as my handy-work of art
I have thrown over you
A multicoloured coat to show my favour

No weapon formed against you
Will ever prosper.
As you stand firm in the protection
Of my favour and love
I define who you are
You are mine.

You allow yourself to feel hurt
As you crave authentic relationship
For my glory.
I will protect you, love
You are protected.
I will defend and provide for you.

Love, Your Father

Beautiful devotional piece of poetry, well articulated and elegantly penned in lovely diction with spiritual insight. Thanks for sharing Stephanie. Please have a look at poem COLOSSAL MISCARRIAGE OF JUSTICE (the execution of Christ)

The gift of Christ is too good of a gift to keep to myself. Thanks Tony.
