"Blessed, Broken and Given"

"Blessed, Broken and Given"

The Christian is an amalgam of God's meal
prepared for the world
Dust formed into man, raised up, forgiven,
his troubles unfurled
Then, the blessings are bestowed, so great is
God's love for His child
The Lord watches him grow, enriched by His
Word, clean now, and undefiled
But, time moves to destiny, and the rose
must give forth its scent
The aroma comes from his Maker, and must
be allowed to ferment
The growth is a process, like clay humbled,
broken, and molded
So is the vessel in the hands of the Potter,
honor being unfolded
The time on the wheel brings beauty, from
the gnarls of the ash heap
And now the vessel is ready; and is no longer
his own to keep
He has become like the Bread of God, come
down from heaven
The vessel has arrived to his final purpose, of
"Blessed, Broken and Given."
