I’m a guttering candle

Ruth Kirk

I am nothing at all (2 Corinthians  12:11; NLT).

He loves us with unfailing love (Psalm 117:2; NLT).

 

Lord,
I’m a guttering candle,
A fallen jockey,
A disgraced politician.

I’m the last in the race,
A broken bridge,
A driver who’s crashed.

I’m a dying ember,
A crushed flower,
A ruined house.

Lord,
I am nothing at all –
And yet you love me.

I'd love to hear from you...
