Tonight I read an email form an old friend. Apparently she was upset about something. TO make a long story short during her rantings of how much of a screw-up I am, and always will be, she made a statement. A very telling, and painful statement. "You have [screwed] up your life so much, God cant use you." I now understand why i find it so hard to trust people. I now understand why I find it so hard to open up and be myself and share my past. I have allowed that lie to affect and infect my life. I found this quote, I have a feeling I will be using this quote to remind me of God's grace for years to come.
" I am not what I ought to be. I am not what I want to be. I am not what I hope to be. But still, I am not what I used to be. And by the grace of God, I am what I am."-John Newton
