Downward Mobility

You stepped out of eternity into the slum of human history
Downward mobility
Wrapped in flesh, the fullness of divinity
To live fully
perfectly
in place of me

Because I

could

not

Born rebellious, busted and backward
Every inclination of my heart warred against Yours
The enemy: unfaithful and unyielding
But you were unwilling to let me be

Lost

You ran to me

Condemned. You pardoned me
Bound. You ransomed me
Orphaned. You adopted me
Dead. You died for me
Wretched. You washed me
Buried. You raised me
Powerless. You filled me
Purposeless. You sent me
