Rescued

Fallen from the Trash

On the way to the dump

Lying there 

Wet from the rain

Alone.

But still 

Beautiful

Life inside

Seen

Hands reach

Picked up

Brought inside

Home

Rinse, clip, place in water

Beautiful

Treasured

Loved

    

 And you shall be called by a new name that the mouth of the Lord will give. You shall be a crown of beauty in the hand of the Lord, and a royal diadem in the hand of your God. You shall no more be termed Forsaken, and your land shall no more be termed Desolate or Ruined but you shall be called My Delight Is in Her, and your land Married; for the Lord delights in you, Walk out of the gates. Get going! Get the road ready for the people. Build the highway. Get at it! Clear the debris, hoist high a flag, a signal to all peoples! Yes! God has broadcast to all the world: “Tell daughter Zion, ‘Look! Your Savior comes, Ready to do what he said he’d do, prepared to complete what he promised.’ They will be called new names: Holy People, God-Redeemed, Sought-Out, Not-Forsaken. 

Isaiah 62
