The voice in me

Just like that, I felt lighter.

I prayed about it all – the good and the bad

I told God about the hate in my heart, the pride, the pain, the jealousy, confusion and secret judgments I held about people.

I told God everything. He didn’t judge me or label me awful. Instead, He affirmed His acceptance of me regardless of how bad of a person I am, by giving me unexplainable peace.

It was as if by opening up, I gave Him the opportunity to start working on me to be better. And strangely even some things I didn’t mention but were there, hidden in my heart, He reached out to.

I gave Him access to my worst version. Confessed my dark and ugly, and He still accepted me.

It felt like He was saying “I know all about it, but that won’t stop me from loving you. Since you have opened up about it, maybe let’s work on it together”

Tell me, why wouldn’t you want to walk with God?
