i am left speechless before You when You speak Your words of truth, love, and libertation to me.i am left in tears as You show me that You don't see me the way i see myself.i am left in semi-shock as You see my half-hearted, mechanical confession and gently challenge me to go further, to mean what i've confessed and to do it again. You see me struggle. You see how i don't know a better way to do things. You see that i don't know how, and You show me how when i ask. and i am left amazed.i am left lost and confused as i continually hide away, but You call me to seek You, and to seek and know my desires as You've placed them in me.i am left humbled and broken when You show me that i don't need to constantly live in self-preservation mode. but that You have a plan for me, a plan to prosper me and not to harm me, plans to give me a hope and a future. i am left uplifted as Your Spirit reveals to me the lies i've believed and functioned by, then leads me to the place of release, hope, and truth. i am left free to live and love, to be the woman You made me to be.i am left in awe as You speak the words i've needed to hear for a long time - to walk by faith. and i am left rejoicing, for my Maker knows me, shapes me, molds me, holds me, and gently shows me who He intends me to be.
