The Ugly Truth...

This is where I am at:

I've been miserable. I have not been the Christian I ought to be...
I've let lies into my head and completely consume me.
I have not been slow to anger.
I have not shown my friends the love they deserve.
I've been destroying myself and my relationships.
I've been selfish. Really, selfish.
I have been putting other gods before God.
I've been trying to be someone that I cannot ever be.

I am broken.

I do not live up to the expectations I put on myself and I tear myself down.

God says I am beautiful... and wonderful and worthwhile.
God says I am worth all the time in the world, and that I have something to offer.

God, give me a clean heart and a clean mind. I want to be pure in Your sight.
I want to put away the things of this world.
I want to stop listening to all the lies... please, Lord speak to me truth when lies enter my mind. Humble me... simply humble me.
