We are...

 We are broken

…and beloved

we are bruised

…and blessed

we are belittled

…and bold

we are blistered

…and blooming

we are stumbling

…and steady

we are restless

… and rooted

we are desperate

…and determined

we are groaning

…and growing

we are tired

…and triumphant

we are needy

…and nurtured

we are lamenting

…and laughing

We are us and we are His. 

We are His and we are one another's. 

Because we are all of these things, we remember that we are human.

Perhaps it is because we are human that we are all of these things.
