Unfurling Petals
{Written by, Candice Landis 06/03/2014)
Coming To Christ Is Like A Flower Unfurling It's Petals For The Sun
His Love Cleanses Each Petal So Tenderly
Healing Imperfections , Erasing Any Deformity
Leaving Behind An Unblemished Surface, Open To Absorb His Love
Each Delicate Vein Becomes Enriched With His Loving Care
The Petals Seem To Radiate His Light From Within , This Beauty Eager To Share
The Flower Once Furled So Tightly Now Openly On Display
Completely Free Of Drought, Disease, And Decay
Confidently Presenting It's Beauty For The World To Enjoy
Radiating The Light Of His Love, Peace, Contentment, And Joy
Restored To Splendor By His Love's Gentle Rain
The Beauty Of The Flower Lives Once Again
Soon It Is Surrounded By Others Spawned By This Same Seed
All Basking In His Presence As He Provides For Their Every Need
More And More Gather Choking Out Every Dark Weed
All Displaying Their Centers To Him As Their Numbers Increase
Much Like Our Churches Who Open Their Doors To Those Who Are In Need
Who Gather To Their Breast Those Who Are Broken And Buried In Deceit
We Gather Them In And Gently Nurse Them Back To A Healthy Spiritual Life
We Watch Joyously As Christ Heals Them And They Begin Living In The Light
