were we?

What grace divine what selflessness
That Christ would bear the weight
Our proof is scarred on hands that bled
That we were worth every nail

were we really?
it is amazing that even after He knows what we will do in the future,
no matter how many times we've hurt Him or how many times we've broken his heart
we can still come back and know that His love will still be there for us
how unworthy we really are
to be loved like that
by His everlasting love

and it is not just love we get,
it is also His faith in us, to have faith in Him; His trust in us, to trust Him.

to even get to call Him my Father, my friend
and to know that nothing can take this away from us. nothing in the world
For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
romans 8:38-39

who are we to deserve this?
