Day 8

Feb 21, 2024

A chance encounter by the lake

I thought this must be some mistake

That someone wrapped in holiness

Would willingly embrace this mess


I tried to tell you, “Leave me be—

I’m not sure what you see in me.”

And yet you chose my net to fill

With all my faults you call me still


—from the hymn "You Sought Me" by Rev. Anna Strickland
