He did not despise
the poverty
of a stable,
the roughness
of a straw bed,
nor the vulnerable
human flesh
that veiled his glory...
He does not despise you!
+
He did not despise
the outcast, the leper,
the prostitute,
the tax collector,
but reached
to the marginalised
casting aside conventions
and traditions
that demanded he "stay" clean..
He does not despise you!
+
He did not despise
the depths of pain and anguish
of Gethsemane or Golgotha,
but bore the suffering
in his body, heart and soul,
his life and love
poured out
even in the depths of doubt
and fear...
He does not despise you!
+
You are known,
loved,
sought after,
longed for,
Called precious
and honoured,
so will you drop the mask,
open the door and let him
enter?
+
HE DOES NOT DESPISE YOU!
