“Search me, O God, and know my heart;
test me and know my anxious thoughts.”
Psalm 139:23
“God who sees even what I imagine, who hears what I think but do not say, how deeply you must love me to forgive even my ugliest thoughts. At times I want to hide the worst of it from you: the jealousy, anger, and fear, but then I am overwhelmed by the depth of your love and all I want is to let you in further. What else am I hiding, Father? Is there anything tucked away in my heart that keeps me from you? I want to show you everything, so you can forgive it all, change it all, and replace it all with love.”
