Who I Am

A slip of words
A knowing look
Today I said, and it was not mistook
Jesus, Lord please let those words not hurt
Let the truth come out and help heal the wounds
The friendships that have been formed and that are formed without past in mind
Lord, let those friendships prosper and abound
Please, don't let anything come in between
God, you know how much these people mean
A few words, so transparent, so quickly
They slipped through my lips
Now they are out in the open
To the ones who see, Lord, please let them see
Who I am now, and who You are molding me to be
Let the past not hinder, but rather teach
Lord, You see and know me
My God, please show me where to go from here
Allow my past to be a witness to who You are
Allow me to be a vessel that sheds light to a world who doesn't see

***I think I'll start writing something I am thankful for each time I write... or at least attempt to.
Today I am thankful for friends who love me for me, and don't care where I've been or what I've done... Those friends that I can trust will be here even when I tell them the dark stories of before, and especially those that I do not doubt are telling the truth when they say, "I love you."
