have they laughed and made fun at my expense only it seems
of those things of which I have absolutely no control over?
I mean, I WAS knit together in my mother's womb,
fearfully and wonderfully made
by you.
So why?
Yes, I look too much like my father.
Guess what? Dad has been dead for over a decade!
Yes, I speak in a breathy whisper.
So did Marilyn Monroe.
So what?
Are you perfect?
I mean, those who throw stones....
Assuming you have read God's word.
God made me exactly the way I was meant to be.
As I dig deeper and deeper into His Word,
I receive the wisdom and strength
I have unceasingly, on my knees,
mostly figuratively,
prayed for over a decade.
Even though I, myself, am a vegetarian,
I want to eat meat
and stop being a baby and drinking milk.
And the beauteous thing is,
the more you learn of God,
the more you realize there
is so much more
of Him.
All I want, Jesus,
is to just
reverently touch
the hem of your robe.
