People have value. I know it, even honor it in others, but for me… It’s my value that I question.
So quickly, a word, a look, a place, and I’m back to my teenage years where I ate alone, cried alone, and shared my thoughts with my cat. Stupid, yes … crazy, yes…. Embarrassing, most definitely.
I always thought that I had nothing to offer:
Not pretty enough
Not funny enough
Not smart enough
Not kind enough
Being alone meant I could pretend to be all the things that I wanted to be, but thought were unattainable. Fast forward 25 years, and most of the time I catch glimpses of myself the way Christ sees me:
Accepted
Loved
Clean
Forgiven
Those days are fun, free. Then there’s today.
The battlefield is my mind. He is enough. He can take the weakness in me, the failures I bring, the mess I’ve made and create something beautiful.
