SCARRED PEOPLE
MAN SPEAKS: I’ve seen a number of movies today, Lord like Romeo and Juliet the love of young people-at least in these movies is beautiful… so simple so total so uncomplicated they seem so natural, so free in their emotions so clear in their feelings I wish i could be like that, Lord I but i can’t be why is it so? I’ve been hurt, Lord. i have trusted and been betrayed at times i have loved and received nothing in return i have tried hard to care and failed often i have shared my secrets and heard them hispered to others i have asked forgiveness and heard no response i have been warm and received a cold shoulder I’ve been through it, Lord i’ve fallen on my feet i’ve banged my shins i’ve been bruised Lord, Lord, I’m all covered with scars… THE LORD SPEAKS: Maybe you haven’t understood enough Maybe you have not learned that human life is like that- all saints are scarred. Young love is not the highest form of love The GREATEST LOVE comes from SCARRED PEOPLE. I know that many people who do start over again, who continue inspite of all, who left themselves open to the possibility of being hurt again. These peopple are able to love in a deeper way a more understanding way a richer way. MANS RESPONSE: I think i know what you mean, Lord I’ve met people like that- and knowing them gives me courage HE GREAT PEOPLE ARE THOSE WHO CONTINUE TO LOVE WITH ALL THEIR SCARS I like scarred people, Lord. THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL. -UNKNOWN-
