I want to believe.

For so long it is as if a weight hangs from my neck. I ache to bow.

Yete I stiffen my neck and stand straight; tiring all the time.

Are You content to wait? How patient are you?

Do You not see that even if You are, I cannot yield till you yield to me?

Every time I tire and falter Your absence strengthens my Will. I have hidden under my bed weeping; I have beaten my body bloody against the wall -

All in defiance of You. I beg that you show Yourself, I beg that You make me Your servant; I have not within the power to bow to Your Will.

thank you for this, most assuridly know the feeling...but add, don't beat yourself up to the point of self persecution...honor thy self in the river of self exploration and experience, living only by example...and allowance. Humbleness is asking for guidence, which will come in time....

Hugs to you
