Righteous indignation has owned me
and I want to return my power to you, O Lord
so that no one and nothing else can claim me, be my master
Nothing has claimed you, says the Lord gently;
instead, you have claimed many others to be your God

The biggest spiritual decision we can make
is to stop resisting

Sometimes being vulnerable
allows for space

So deeply through the thicket,
bramble catching on my clothes
compass gone, all is chaos:
O God, be my hope

remember that you can remember

You’re starting to observe yourself
and better yet, observe yourself observe
this is the path of wisdom
this is the path of strength

Do not measure me by the hope you have, says the Lord,
for that can disappear at any time;
I am independent of your hope
Do not measure me by the faith you have,
for that, too, waxes and wanes;
I am independent of your faith
Do not measure me by the love you have,
for your love does not determine my love;
I am independent of your love

Different traditions call it different things
but the same task is before you: Use your voice

You can feel lonely
but remember I, the Permanent One,
am always with you
