Scars of a Loving Heart

Scars define the wounding
caused by our selfish pride,
delivered through His love
our sin taken in His stride.

Scars define the journey
to healing and fresh hope,
grasped only by His grace
without Him we are broke.

Scars define the beauty
the true meaning of His love,
crown of thorns adorning
the Almighty God above.

Scars define our value
seen by a gracious God,
intimacy pursued
despite the path we trod.

Scars define His forgiveness
given through the blood He shed,
so don't despair your scars
embrace Jesus heart instead!
