I am new wine
Patiently aged
Broken pieces repaired
Fractures restored
Strength found
Scars healed

I am new wine
Searching for new vessels
To store this newfound freedom
Every discovery a gift
I am searching
But I am not lost

I am new wine

Luke 5:36-38 NRSV: “He also told them a parable: ‘No one tears a piece from a new garment and sews it on an old garment; otherwise the new will be torn, and the piece from the new will not match the old. And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; otherwise the new wine will burst the skins and will be spilled, and the skins will be destroyed. But new wine must be put into fresh wineskins.”
