It is not
Within
My
Power
To remove myself
From the loving hands
Of the living God.
Reciting this like a mantra recently. I'm trying so hard to remember this. I feel like I've disappointed Him in so many ways. I've sinned and rebelled again and again and I truly can't believe that anyone could  love me enough to save me from myself. I don't even love myself that much. And I try hard to remember that my feelings do not overcome His power,  so I just lay in the dark, whispering "Please, Please, Please don't leave me" until I fall asleep.
