And it came to me

When he whispers my name
my soul refuses to answer
as I wallow in the gutter of my mistakes.

when he whispers my name
I am broken that I he still remembers
even with all my blunders
my name lies over his heart unerased.

when he whispers my name
I shout out "forget me."
I caution him "not to love me."
because such faith and love upon me a risk.

when he whispers my name
I stand in awe and shudder,
tears of thankfullness flow, at the thought that my wrongs he can forgive.

when he whispers your name
don't refuse for too long
do embrace what he is giving: Another chance to claim his grace.


keep surviving on grace. chichi

Nice words, he calls us out from our hiding place, because of his great love for us.
All we need to do is run to him for he accepts us as we are.

Madam, i'm back and have updated. It's so funny, when I expect a spanking from God, He holds me tight in an embrace that reaches deep into the core of my being, we indeed survive on grace.
