I am a complete rose,
From my head down to my toes.
I am a beautiful rose,
Lovely to the tip of my nose.
I am a gorgeous rose,
Absolutely gorgeous in every pose.
I am a holy rose,
Morally excellent my Jesus knows.
I am a glorious rose,
More glorious than clothes.
I am growing rose.
More beautiful and lovely as faith grows.
I am a glowing rose.
For Christ in me glows.
I am an excellent rose.
Who’s excellence always shows.
I am a rose.
And so are you I suppose.
“I am a rose” Solomon’s Song of Songs 2:1
Other thoughts as I meditated on the Beauty of Christ and that I am like Him.
I said to the one I love,
I am a rose,
He said to me,
I am The Rose of roses.
I looked at he as He gazed at me.
I was like Him.
The vision I had of Him was Beautiful,
Yeah most beautiful.
To behold the Beauty of Beauties.
And see no end to it, oh how lovely.
The sight was most delightful,
Better than an other experience.
I have seen beautiful roses, and I have seen even more beautiful women, but the Rose of roses dying on the cross is so lovely it makes my heart break.
The Beautiful and Holy LORD is close to the broken hearted, and in His beautiful light we see light.
He wanted to draw me closer and be more intimate with me in conversation yet so many dark shameful spots in my heart caused me to weep.
Seeing the Rose die for me took what guilt and shame I had while in His holy presence away. Far far away as far as the east is from the west so far has He removed our sin from us.
Most Beautiful to see the Rose of roses display His Beauty to the Father and us at the cross. Holiness is His Beauty that adorns our Savior. He did not sin in the wilderness when tempted and he didn’t sin at the cross either. God the Father sent God the Son and the Son obeyed. Oh how beautiful is the Son of Love. His Love to God and sinful man shone brighter than all the lights in the universe.
I was not always a rose.
A seed is where I began.
Then I died and began to grow.
To grow bigger in the dark.
My roots began to branch out.
And my stem began to form.
I grew closer to the one I love.
Closer to the Sun that nourishes me.
Praise the LORD for the beauty of Christ that we have within us. It took the Precious Blood of Christ to purchase it.
