I learned tonight that I have resisted my fears and feelings for so long that it’s become a highway. I got some great advice tonight. Someone told me to take the road less traveled. It is time to make my own dirt road.
Show me, Father, how to take your hand. I know you are inviting me to release my fears, thoughts, and feelings. But how do I do that?
You know, I’ve gone so long telling myself that I didn’t have feelings—that I don’t know how to express them. Did you know how? What were you afraid of? Were you afraid to let people love you? I do have to say thank you that you were never afraid to tell me how much you loved me. I think you were always too afraid
to show me, but you were never afraid to tell me. That says something about our relationship doesn’t it?
