Worms

nobody likes me
everybody hates me
im going to eat some worms...

remember that song from when we were kids
it was meant to gross people out
but some days i feel like that

i know its not true
and the evil one wants me to doubt my value as a child of God
but i still struggle with feelings of worth

especially when i blow it
or blow up at someone
like i did yesterday

Jesus loves you and im trying
is a favorite saying of mine
funny , yes , but true

its hard to love when your feelings are hurt
its hard to love when someone hurts the ones you love
its hard to love

i cant do it in my own strength
sometimes i can barely do it relying on God
im so weak!!
definitely a sinner saved by grace

so i continue to try
continue to forgive others
continue to forgive myself
continue to press on toward the prize
not yet finished
work in process

Nobody likes me, everybody hates me,
Guess I'll go eat worms,
Long, thin, slimy ones; Short, fat, juicy ones,
Itsy, bitsy, fuzzy wuzzy worms.

LOL! I remember that song well...I still sing it too my kids! Ha!! I hope things are better after a few days have gone by.
I got another song for ya, it popped into my head as I read your post......
"My God is so BIG so strong and so mighty there's nothing my God cannot do...for you!"
