Poetry

---

The corners of my mind murmur thoughts of fear and unworthiness
The whispers of not being good enough.

Thoughts from the past creep in like fog
Slow and steady until suddenly I realize I’m overcome

Should have and should have been
What I do now and what I did then

There’s no stopping the words coming from out of the blue
You’re nothing and no one.
Like the discarded trash
Broken and used.

Then the peace comes
Slowly then bright
Like a light turned on in the dead of night

I’m more than my past
And worthy of love
God steps in and shows up

Grace not earned or even deserved
But given to me freely and abundantly
So I may know how much I’m loved

The thoughts slip away as I set my mind on my Father
He’s there with outstretched arms
Waiting for me to call upon Him and
Deliver me from my own harm

Trust in Me He says
I will give you peace always.
