Father I am on my knees spiritually with a broken heart and I guess I have always been in a relationship with this broken heart for at least 12 years of my life. It is a heart that has held on to trauma, rejection, confusion, and belittlement. I father have done bad things too in my life as well as too others and I carry those burdens of guilt and shame to this day. I am not making excuses I can honestly say what I have done with a regretful heart, but I also know that forgiveness is the answer, forgiveness of self. I am struggling God, I can be open and honest in this darkness because I know I am not alone even though the darkness tries to convince me that I am. I lay in bed remembering all of the horrible things I have done to others and wishing I did not come to earth to become an ill will burden to the many people that have walked paths with me. I often am so confused about who I am and why am I such a complicated force of weirdness in the eyes of others, but again I fight these conflicting questions with.. "God loves you" and " if people can't understand you, it doesn't make you evil." but when you've been told these things by others you become them because you believe the words and we all know that words and believing in those words become powerful. Forgive me lord for not believing in the good things, even when people say good things to me and about me, it's hard for me to believe them because of the trauma I've gone through. Why is this a struggle? I am not asking for the answers of people because others cannot understand themselves to give me the right answers for my own life and situations. So what is the right answer lord? Do I stay strong? not give up? fight for another day? These burdens are to hard to keep carrying I am weak now, I'm in need of rest I need peace and reassurance that you are still there and you are listening.
I guess this a prayer request for God and also me just writing what's in my heart.
