Can you hear Him?
I can imagine the voice of Jesus saying what I feel is the message of redemption to us:
“You’re not forgotten, you’re wanted. You’re not neglected, you’re cared for.
You’re not forsaken, you’re embraced. You’re not lost, I’ve found you.
You’re not hopeless, I’ve taken up your cause. You’re not alone, I’m with you.
You’re not broken, you’re whole. You’re not sinful, you’re good.
You’re not wretched, you’re lovable. You’re not vulnerable, you’re safe.
You’re not spinning out of control, everything is all right. You’re not estranged, you’re part of the family.
You’re not a nobody, you’re my somebody! You’re not trash, you’re a treasure.
You’re not ruined, you’re restored. You’re not bound, I’ve freed you!
You’re not an enemy, you’re my friend. You’re not distant from me, I’ve got you in my arms.
You’re not cast away, you belong with me! You’re not a misfit, you fit in with me.
You’re not unimportant, I’d give my life for you! You're not dirty, you're clean.
You’re not unnoticed, you’ve got my full attention. You’re not an outcast, you’re royalty!
