Laid Low

Laid Low

A Poem by JJ Escobar
"

A poem on my experience with humility

"
In this moment with nothing to give
My pride wants to overcome the deficiency
There is no place for the King to live
My heart lies in order to gain self-sufficiency

In the pit, I must look up to see the way out 
With no control, I am aware of my need 
The warrior within doesn't want to surrender this bout
A pride fueled by delusion brings me to my knees

Yet your Light shines down into my darkness
Your Love, too good to be true, humbles me
Giving me more than I earned, you are my catharsis 
In that helpless state, still you give and set me free

I don't know what to do or say
Your Grace is more than I can ever repay

“There is no place for the King to live.”

How can we say He reigns if He does not sit on the throne of our hearts?

“Your love, too good to be true”

Ain’t that the truth!

“I don't know what to do or say
Your Grace is more than I can ever repay”

A proper response to a love that is too good to be true.

Inspired by how you bring your pain to God!
