We are all Artichokes



We are all like artichokes,

clothed in many layers..


Jesus wants to peel those layers away,

Those reluctant shreds of self..


Those layers have names like:

Indulgence, Pride, Greed, Lust,


The process is often painful,

But when all the layers are gone,


There is a heart

that resembles something of pure gold.


When we are stripped of self,

Our hearts begin to look

very much like HIS Own
