I must admit to being a
AWOL poet.
Sometimes things visceral
happen you are
TOTALLY
unpreraired for.
I honestly didn't see
this one coming, even though
I had had dreams of using
and had even at one time
planned a relapse.

Then I did it.

For days I have been weeping
and beating myself up.
I thought I had let everyone down

INCLUDING GOD.

I finally broke down and told
a Christian friend.

He laughed. "That's all?" He said...

God doesn't look at your mistakes
when you fall. He loves you anyway.
He looks at the redemption of Christ.
All HE sees is Jesus righteousness.
He sees you are sorry.

Once you are HIS
He will never leave you nor
forsake you. And He is not a man
that He should lie.

I am simply proving (once again)
that I am H U M A N.

I LOVE YOU ALL.

And I missed you.
If I go off site for a while
it has to do with a retreat I want
to be at. Please pray that I can go.

♥ Catherine
