Silenced...

Today I am silenced.  Not on purpose, mind you.  On the inside there are a million thoughts churning all at once, all day long.  But none is stronger than the other, and none are rising to the top.  It's a "deep" day. 


This morning at church the Pastor said, "Your failures have not removed your possibilities."  I know that truth, but I don't think I've allowed it to seep into the "deep" yet.   I'm working on it.  Thus all the churning.  And silence.


I know I'm not alone in this thought process.  It's scary to believe you have worth when you feel you don't deserve it.  Why does this happen?  Was it something that was said when we were young?  Was it making a wrong decision and not believing there could be forgiveness?  The Pastor also said, "In compassion, God says to us: 'I don't see you as a problem.  I see the problem as OURS.' "  I will remember this.


It's time.  I click my heels together and slowly whisper, "I do believe...  I do believe..."


Have a blessed week, and know that you are SO loved.  No matter what.
