You give and you give and they take and take some more. Often times your deeds go unappreciated. Gossip, back biting and lies are your reward. You invest so much time in those who surround you, yet find your self alone in your darkest hour. Help me to remember what I do, I do unto you. My reward is in your hand. Yes time has callused my heart. There are wounds time can not mend, but you can. As my house of cards crumbles, your foundation sustains me. As all systems and things I placed hope and faith on fail me, you are the one thing I can trust. They take pleasure in my pain. My failures are encouragement to their arrogance. But you have delivered me. You have given me a promise. You alone, are discerner of hearts. Help me not become bitter, angry , resentful. Help me see them through your eyes. Help me see that at times..I am also the culprit.
