Should it matter that the messenger of truth may not meet my expectation
The one who can easily see my vulnerability, or ways I need to make improvements

Does it matter the brand of the carrier of this package
As long as it’s delivered successfully then the job is done

Oh, Ego,  do not be quick to be bruised
Regardless of their intent here lies an opportunity for you

A chance to be brave
A chance to face me
A chance to make positive progress

Why do you put your shield toward the messenger?
Or care about how they look?

Can two truths not stand?
Can someone maybe be speaking from their own personal experience
For that may be why they can see you

But what if they’re projecting?
What if they cannot handle my package of being me
What if….they’re rejecting me?

Oh,  how beautiful is your curiosity
My friend, it’s easier to assume that all come with good intent
Trust in the Lord, Jesus Christ, to help you with discernment

Take hold of what may be true
Knowing that Christ loves every part of you
Even with the hope and freedom to Grow
Who you are now is the best version of you

So my friend, ego or pride, embrace this truth
Allow yourself to bloom
Enjoying the progress of life:
Seeds (seed formation), germination (the process of something coming into existence and developing), growth (the courage to be who you were created to be), and the beauty of the flowering plant (pollination: planting seeds..)
So you can gain the courage to start the cycle of life again
