Peace In Liminal Spaces

tea-381235_1920

I have been wandering this path

Testing, trying, starting new each day

Is it now? Is it here?

Do I try, do I dare?

Caught in the transformation from bug to butterfly

Swirling in the soup of cells dissolving and forming

One thing I do know is I am not who I used to be

And not yet what I shall be.

And in this space of newness and exploration

I am alive, I am His

And I am more beautiful than I ever imagined

Because He sees me as more beautiful than I ever imagined.

And His love, His truth, His joy,

Shape me into a beautiful work of art

Scars and all.

So I may be as one lost or confused

But He holds me

In the palm of His hand

He knows my ending from my beginning.

And with Him by my side

I will emerge from my chrysalis

Whole, vibrant, beautiful, and strong

And most of all

Loved.

    Truly beautiful, it has a certain daintiness about it. Been tossing the word ‘Liminal’ in my head and all that’s coming back is ‘Minimal’ 😊

      Onyiiiii! 😀 Thanks so much for reading and commenting!

      Bahahaha at ‘minimal’ coming back! Minimal damage, perhaps? Or maybe minimal fuss? 😉

      Funny how these things work. Wrote this poem years ago but I’m living it out now in a WHOLE new way. Whew. God is good! 😀

      Hugs! Miss you!

    Otiti Jasmine,

    This poem is not only beautiful, it’s also prophetic!

    I especially like the part …’One thing I know is that I am not who I used to be.’

    And truly, now, you’re definitely someone new!

    Alive, His, and more beautiful than you ever imagined.

    Yes, you are blessed and loved.

    Many hugs.

      Heeeey, Mama! 😀 Thank you so much! I feel the love!

      Yup, I had NO idea how true this poem would be in my life, never mind how true it is this season! Whew!

      Today is a new day. God is doing a new thing and it’s marvellous in our sight! YAY! 😀
