Sunday morning. Chaos. I’m running late, the kids haven’t eaten, its 57degrees in the house, and the furnace is broken. At this point, Satan has taken a break , I’ve become my worst enemy. I feel like I’ve been here before, I don’t know if I’m coming or going. Replaying ever poor decision I’ve made in life, up until this very moment.
My daydreams are depression, and my realities aren’t real.

“Lord, I’ve got to get to church”, “ Maybe, they’ll tell me something there. “I’m so tired, …I’m doing the best I can, alone. I miss the old me, the one that you liked. The sanctified me, I used to hear from you. I can’t talk to you know, you don’t trust me. I’m a liar. Love you, yes, but obviously I don’t trust you. I wouldn’t be here if I did. I thought I knew better. You seemed to have forgotten me. I have to do something but I’ve done enough damage. “ I’ve got to take care of myself, or who will?”

It seems like all hell is breaking loose. “ALL HELL IS BREAKING LOOSE, BECAUSE I’M LOOSING YOU”. “But, things will never be the same because of me”.
“THINGS WILL NEVER BE THE SAME BECAUSE OF ME”. “REPENT FOR IDOLATRY, I AM THE LORD.

The room settles. I feel remorseful yet renewed. “I’ve wasted time praising my mistakes. They’ve had more of me than the one who shed his blood for me. I repent. I am not God, my destiny does not belong to me.

Isaiah 29: 24 They also that erred in spirit shall come to understand, and they that murmured shall learn doctrine.
