Penitent Magdalene
Magdalene.
The Local Prostitute.
You know, they say
every time you
give yourself away,
you give a part of your
self
away ... you fragmentize.
A little bit more of you... gone...
Soon you begin to wonder
if there's any of you left.
And if there is,
what does that you
even look like anymore?
Each time,
a fragmentation.
Humpty Dumpty.
played on the wall.
Thought it was a ball.
But Humpty Dumpty.
took such a great fall.
All the king's horses
and all the king's men.
Could not put
humpty together again.
What does it take
to put a broken egg
back together again?
Nothing.
You can't do it.
What does it take
to put a broken life
back together again?
Nothing.
It can't be done.
What's shattered is shattered.
New life was what humpty needed.
Nothing else would do.
Brand new life.
That's what Magdalene got.
The King of kings came along,
with a few of His men,
and He gave her new life.
And now, she has it all together...
In Him.
Brand new life.

that Brand New Life
looks like...
