One Beautiful Mistake
Perhaps redemption looks a lot like this. Or a little like this. Or something like this. I’d like to hope that there is a splash of brilliant transformation on the mistakes that we have made. Brushstroke by brushstroke. Wet with the tears of remorse and cries for forgiveness and new starts.
Forgiveness and new mercies sent to Earth on the wings of His amazing grace. And I whisper the prayer, give me the eyes to see Your loving arms around each one of my own, Beautiful Mistakes. Made beautiful by Your grace. Washed clean. Changed into holy beauty, by Your unfathomable, unbelievable, unending, and unmerited grace.

One Beautiful Mistake
Red bleeds pink from the sky
one night
Writing cryptic messages
Heaven’s hieroglyphics
I run to it
I run away
Catch what is lost
My breath
I see the beauty
In one beautiful mistake
Redemption
Written by The
Sky-writer
Lover of my soul
I nod a billion times
Each a nod of gratitude
They number,
Mirror every unseen star
Feel
You dry my leaking eyes
And hear
You whisper
At the start of night
There was a fire in the sky last night
Before the earth
Was wrapped
In skies of frigid cold
Remember long, the beautiful
Remember long, the warmth
Hold loosely to each gift
And wait for the Beautiful’s return
Red bleeds pink from the sky
One night
Writing holy messages
Dear sweet Elizabeth,
In Christ and we are in Christ, there is always redemption my friend 🙂 I just sent you a long e-mail…hope it makes sense as I woke up way too early today.
