To Be Known

ShilohRose77©️

To be loved but not known is comforting but superficial. To be known and not loved is our greatest fear. But to be fully known and truly loved is well, a lot like being loved by God. It is what we need more than anything. It liberates us from pretense, humbles us out of our self-righteousness, and fortifies us for any difficulty life can throw at us. -Tim Keller


To Be Known

The art of being oneself 

a virtue lost amongst the plastic

In the here and now, men are rewarded for their counterfeit

To be known, the real you beyond a shell of falsehoods

Let me see your unique beauty

hear your heart resound

From the shadows emerge

lift your voice and be heard

Do not fear your form

for even the dust is sacred

Of all the creatures on our planet 

you alone are of the most value

The God of all, breathed into your lungs

a breath of possibilities

Rather than blend in

shine little one

for you belong on display

A great masterpiece, a rare jewel

loved beyond words

To Be Known, to Him you Belong!
