Ahhh Jasmine, you are a wonderful writer! Tell me more... if you feel comfortable... about the words in italic. Sending love, Ash

Of course! The italic is my way of personifying the more destructive thoughts that I allowed to control me for so long. When I began to realize that so many of those around me also heard these things within themselves, I felt compelled to shine a light on it.

I suppose it's my way of exposing it for what it is and giving the power to Jesus.

If anyone can read this and find it's voice familiar-- maybe they can also have that "ah-ha!" moment of realizing that, that voice is a liar.

And just like in the poem it may feel like you're straining to pray that prayer, but personally, before the words even left me-- He was already there ~

Thank you truly for the encouraging compliment!!
