THOUGHT
conquering the self is the most difficult thing.
it’s a battle no one knows but me.
no one sees it.
no one hears it.
no one can grapple with it but myself.
and no one can help me win or lose.
it’s an internal struggle for faith.
and the more i fight, the more i see my weakness.
it’s a cry for grace.
but underneath it all, there is joy.
i know i can never fall beyond His reach.
or fail beyond His forgiveness.
Where can I flee from your presence?
If I go up to the heavens, you are there;
if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.
~Psalm 139:7-8~
