I'm never letting this go

I am so happy with my life. Of course I go through struggles, and I have shit that I deal with.
But I am happy.

Thank you God for granting me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. I've never applied that quote to my life, and I now I understand it completely. Thank you Lord for blessing me every single day. Thank you for being my light and way of life. Thank you for changing me to strive to mimic your son. Thank you for forgiving me when I fall away. Thank you for loving me.

Conviction and revelation

He said to me, "Ask me why you chose to make that decision?" So, I asked. He replied, "You were searching for the approval and love you have never given yourself, because you have never allowed yourself to open up to me long enough to show you that you are beautiful." Pins could be heard dropping in my silence. Memories began to flash at a hunrded times per second. And then I realize, this is the truth. This is what I have allowed to happen. And I cried, and cried, and cried. But then the reshaping of my heart began, and I was thankful.
