Who I am? I thought myself small and weak, my only asset- “never letting go”. Never letting go of the desire to please You, to love You more, to submit myself fully unto Your craftsmanship. Oh, the times it hurt, as You cut deep into my heart, removing so much of me. I cried and cried and wished it would end, but could never stop offering up my heart. I wanted You more than anything. My heart ached for You. How could I ask You to stop? I just told myself, He is faithful. His presence will return and I will meet Him again,  this time His beautiful bride, this time will last forever. I will finally have my heart’s desire. And, all the pain, all the loneliness, and all the cutting will be worth it.
