It is easier to run and to avoid, to not dig deep and look into myself. Yet Lord, circumstances, or maybe even You, are asking me to probe deeper. I am not sure Lord of what I would find inside. I am scared, I am afraid, I am uncertain, I am vulnerable. Yet on the other side of the tunnel, I know Your light shines even brighter, reaching out to me, calling me, yearning for me to draw even closer to You.
Lord, help me oh God to ask the questions that I need to ask. Help me to see what I need to see, help me to go into myself so that I can come back up alive and well, stepping into a deeper trust with You. Help me to see and fight, and know that my vulnerability will only draw You closer, the pain that I may and will experience will only pull me closer to You rather than anything else Lord.
