You Must Go


     I stand alone. Ashamed. My shoulders are sagging under the weight of my guilt. With my head bowed, I pray to God, “Lord, I want to believe that You can forgive me for all I've done. For the countless times that I have failed You. I want to believe that You love me.” I stop, draw in a shaky breath, and continue. “But I can't see how. How can You love me when I've been so selfish? You are the One who made me, and I have turned my back on You and spit in Your face over and over again.” My heart is aching and tears form in my eyes.
