The pain of my childhood still hurts me. Feeling alone, unwanted, unlovable. Knowing other's joy of me came from my service to them. Desperately wanting, needing to be loved for myself and not for what I could do. Now, the unworthiness follows, lurks in the darkness. Waiting to grab me in a moment of weakness. And yet, I live in HOPE! I can escape those demons, but it is an every day job of Resting in God, and knowing LOVE.
