When I said

When I said to the Lord "I am so short of where you want me to be."
He gently answered "That's okay. That's all the farther, you and I can walk together."

When I said to the Lord "I don't know who I am."
He gently answered "That's okay. I know who you are."

When I said to the Lord "I am so tired of fighting."
He gently answered "That's okay. satan is down for the count."

When I said to the Lord "My actions aren't reflecting my heart."
He gently answered "That's okay. Mine did."

When I said to the Lord "My mind is corrupted."
He gently answered "That's okay. Use mine for awhile."

When I said to the Lord "I don't know how to love."
He gently answered "That's okay. I will give you free lessons"

As I read this I was reminded of the quote:

"The next time the devil reminds you of your past, remind him of his future."

I love you.
