With and without

I'm so..
tired of being tired.
Restless of restlessness.
Confused about confusion.
Sick of sickness.
Sad because of sadness.
frustrated with frustration
pained by pain.
heavy with heaviness.
emptied by emptiness.
drained of draining.
angry with anger.
Sinfully sinful
arrogantly arrogant
hungry for hunger.
thirsty for thirst.
desiring desire.
longing longing.
hopelessly hopeless.
Broken brokenness

You are...
Living life
Patiently patient
Peacefully peace
truthfully truth
wonderfully wonderful
joyfully joyous
calmly calm
lovingly loving
awesomely awesome
full of fullness
justly justice
purely pure
humbly humble
kindly kind
creatively creative
faithfully faithful
hopefully hopeful
perfectly perfect


You heal...
My tiredness with Your peace
My restlessness with Your patience
My confusion with Your truth
My sickness with Your wonder
My sadness with Your joy
My frustration with Your calm
My pain with Your love
My heaviness with Your awe
My emptiness with Your fullness
My anger with Your justice
My sin with Your purity
My arrogance with Your humility
My hunger with Your kindness
My thirst with Your creativity
My longing with Your faithfulness
My hopelessness with Your hope
My brokenness with Your perfection

I am
nothing without You.
Everything with You.
Lost without You.
Found with You.
Alone without You.
Belonging with You.
Scared without You.
Secure with You.
Longing without You.
Satisfied with You.
Empty without You.
Full with You.
Hate without You.
Love with You.



Lord, I realize my need for You. My desires and my wants of more You. Help me to change anytime I use "I""me" or any other pronoun pertaining to myself, and changed it to You. Until all that is left is more and more of You, and less of me. You are what matters, what is important, what is good, right, faithful, true. Make that clear Lord. More of You.
With love, to Love. Amen
