January 18th

"But now thus says the LORD,
    he who created you, O Jacob,
   he who formed you, O Israel:
Do not fear, for I have redeemed you;
   I have called you by name, you are mine." Isaiah 43:1

if it takes my heart,
i will break it for you.
if it means leaving glory,
i will come to you.
if it means letting go of anger,
i will gladly open my hands
to let it slip away.
if it means giving you 
as much love, grace, hope
as you might need,
i have plenty to spare.
stop being afraid,
you are no longer alone,
i will never forget you.
never.
