Dear God,
I only have seven hours to rest before boarding another plane. I feel a lot right now, but I know I’ll be okay. I can feel You teaching me. I’m learning so much about myself.
I’m walking away from many things — especially being someone who cares too much about what others think. I’m choosing to stop gossiping. I see how it has hurt me in ways I didn’t fully understand before. I want to do better. Help me guard my words.
I gossip often — especially with my mom, and sometimes with Shervin. Maybe instead of participating with my mom, I can become the example. Teach me how to redirect conversations with grace. And when I need to release my thoughts, can I vent to You? I know You can handle all of it.
I think about my life and how I ended up here. Sometimes I wonder how many times I need to learn the same lesson. But I’m listening now. I need to protect my peace. I need to stop giving everyone free access to me.
This job is shaping me into someone more independent. I’ll board planes, meet new people, and not see the same faces every day. I’ll explore wisely and remain situationally aware. And I won’t have to worry about losing control, because I’m choosing clarity. I’m choosing sobriety.
I plan to work hard and do my best for OE. When I return to Houston, I’ll continue building my career and start writing again — finishing the last song and beginning the three new ones You placed on my heart.
I just want to be happy. And I’ve learned that my happiness begins with me — with the choices I make daily. You have already equipped me with everything I need.
I may not have the words to fully thank You, but I trust You. I will be just fine as long as I rely on You.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
