Terrifying Disguise
The phrase “Life’s a gift in terrifying disguise”
is taken from an article by Dr. Kelly Flanagan:
“What to Do When Our Feelings Are Lying to Us”
A baby cries,
Thrust from its mother’s womb –
Unless it’s been his tomb.
By grace or chance,
He continues life’s dance.
If parents give her
Love and Truth,
She’ll have less wounds.
If, instead,
They do berate –
There’ll be more hate.
Life can be cruel –
So many wounds we give and take –
But there is grace.
Life’s a gift in terrifying disguise.
Yet there is One Who redeems —
Let Him also heal.
