Today I wrote out all the lies that The Lord revealed to me. I wrote simple lies that grew deeper and deeper. I wrote one lie, two lies, seven lies; next thing I knew I had two entire pages written. The pages were full of lies, both big and small, that I had believed during my life.
Then I began to read them out loud. And with each word I said I saw our Father turn away. I saw the pain in His eyes. I felt His chest tighten as He looked upon His daughter who had fed on these lies. But if I only spoke of His brokenness at my list, I wouldn't be giving anyone the full truth. As I read further and further down the page a love poured out of Him. I felt a proud Father engulfed by His daughter refusing to keep the lies to herself. Bottled up as if she couldn't bring them before Him.
