I Thank You God

3s Thank You God Thank you, God, for your love and wisdom. Even in moments of doubt, I tried to keep my faith discreet. Many times, I felt the weight of my sins, knowing that conscience is not just a guide but a compass. I speak for myself when I say that each day, I struggle with the inevitable tasks and the pain inflicted by evildoers. Today would have been his birthday, a bittersweet reminder that evildoers cannot harm us for long if we believe in your power. I have come too far to let regrets weaken me. I am too proud and too strong for shame or regret. Please, always come to me when I am in doubt. Keep shining your light upon me and keep my mind healthy. My vision is clear, and I know my children will be happy and safe. I will fight for daily strength to move forward. I will adhere to your words and find rest in your guidance. You know me better than I know myself, and I love you, Lord. Your mercy never fails me. I grieve for others more than I should, perhaps being too mythopoetic. I am mortal, a giver by nature, and proud of the choices I have made. I am who I am, black by nature, and I embrace my identity with pride.
