In a moment of raw confession
That’s right. God slapped me over the head again tonight. I know I deserved it. I’d just like to take this moment to publicly confess that I have not been who I should be. I’m not going to go into detail about how I’ve been falling…because that could cause some people to fly off the handle and point crooked fingers. Instead, I’m just going to say that I haven’t been the strong woman that I claim to be. I have done things these past few weeks that I knew were wrong and I brought others down with me (even if they weren’t as opposed to the actions as I was). It was wrong and I ask forgiveness for my actions (again). I know the Lord will have mercy even though He knows that my actions weren’t completely unfavorable to me at the time, and I pray that He will give me strength to start fresh with new convictions, conscience and self-discipline.
As far as the multitude of other errors I’ve indulged in – I ask forgiveness for those too because I want to start my new life out of college with a clean slate. I want to remove the cataracts of ambition that have built up on my eyes and I want a clear view of where God wants me to go.
May this post mark the moment I learned (again) to let go.
P.S. – Thank you Bob the Tomato. Your wisdom has saved more than just children.
