I came in to the conversation desperate, hoping you’d
somehow know; I was seeking words of affirmation, some simple words of uncoaxed
hope. But you were quickly on your way
and out of the room, not only went your presence, but the little confidence I
had left turned to utter gloom.
Why do I give you so much power, you without a name, because
it is not one person but a people, who I look to to save face? Why is my confidence anchored in what you
have to say and why is it shattered when it doesn’t go my way?
Dear God, help me take back the power from insecurity and
shame. Help me to seek You, above any
other name. Let Your hope be my anchor
for Your promises are sure. Let my guilt ridden and self-loathing thoughts diminish as I remember and cling to Your grace, love and mercy that
endure.
