“For I will restore health to you, and your wounds I will heal, declares the Lord, because they have called you an outcast: ‘It is Zion, for whom no one cares!”
-Jeremiah 30:17
“Your crazy”
“Your so dramatic”
“What’s wrong with you?”
Papa, for most of my life here on earth, I have been falsely labeled. You know this… You know also, that I began to believe those lies and fell into darkness. It was scary papa, I was lonely, I felt helpless, victim to my past and afraid of what my future would be. I was tormented by the words of others, I was haunted by the demons of my past, and I had cut myself off from you.
Oh how lost I was…
But papa, I no longer sorrow for myself, because I know you will use all my story to reveal your faithfulness. Papa when I came back to you, broken and empty, you showed me I was not beyond repair. You have walked me through restoration and you continue to re-new my mind, body and spirit. You have cleared me of those false labels and you have adorned me with a crown of truth. Those words no longer have power over me, for I know now, who you have created me to be.
“Your daughter”
“Seeker and speaker of truth”
“Healer”
“Chain breaker”
I know my truth, I will speak my truth and I will live my truth in honor of all you have given me papa.
Love you – your daughter x0
