Denial
Ashen cross smeared on my forehead,
A symbol of contemplation.
How can I understand perfection?
What is the value of priceless?
I can starve, I can sacrifice,
All the world can see my suffering.
As you hang on the cross looking down at me,
The rooster crows; my indifference becomes painfully obvious.
I stumble towards you in faith,
Teach me the feeling of nails in my hands.

Acts 5:41... rejoicing because they havd been counted worthy of suffering disgrace for the Name...
That is a powerful, and truly faith filled prayer...
What boldness and sacrifice it requires...
i really like that... especially the second stanza. that is so true in my life. i feel like peter every day... denying Christ thoughtlessly in half of my actions. i want to understand the suffering he went through but my mind is too small to comprehend it...
what is the value of priceless? it's a question i ask myself when i try to grasp the greatness of what Christ did for me.
