i'm in repair. i'm not together, but i'm getting there.

God, take this junk out of my life. Take these feelings that remind me of my failures and shortcomings, and turn them into hopes. I pray that I can yearn for no one but You, and that no matter what broken well I run to, I will always come up dry. I pray that I will come back to You always, because Your well overflows with life-giving, thirst-quenching, soul-satisfying water. Heal my heart of the damage I have done to it. I know You can do it, God, and help me to remember that I cannot on my own. My heart will forever be destroyed without Your gracious hand putting it back together, strengthening it for future temptations. I am sorry for letting it go so easily and losing sight of where it truly belongs. I give everything to You, God. Be my portion, my complete satisfaction, my rock, shield, reward. Please give me wisdom, and complete and total peace.

Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12:1-2

Questa estate sarà diversa. Addio al mio rammarico.
