You sit, never moving, waiting for me.
I have run from You, afraid that You will see something that You don’t like
I have hid behind the busyness of life
I have raged at You when I felt embarrassment from my vulnerability
I have done self destructive things to prove to myself that I don’t deserve You or good things
I have looked to others to give me what I thought I needed
You have kept Your unwavering calm and consistency.
You have been an ear when I needed to pour out my grief and sorrow and worry
You have been the arms that held me when I needed comfort and care
You have been a companion when I became overwhelmed by my self isolation
You have been the joy and laughter that I seek
You have allowed me time to figure myself out and to see that You are never leaving….ever….no matter what.
In just sitting with me, You have helped me to find myself and all the good things that I deserve.
Sometimes we need someone to simply be there. Not fix anything in particular, just let us feel that we are cared for and supported
