Self, I APOLOGIZE

It’s crazy, how quickly the days, weeks, months, and seasons change. This time last week, I was preparing for a wonderful trip with my son. Today, I’m wondering if I’ll ever forgive myself. Today, on Day 3 of Lent 2025, I give my broken pieces, an apology.

Going into prayer, on this First Friday of Lent, I apologize to me.

I APOLOGIZE for being the little girl that never told

I APOLOGIZE for the teenaged girl who failed to go after her dreams

I APOLOGIZE for accepting less than I deserved

I APOLOGIZE for wasting so many years, loving those who didn’t love me

I APOLOGIZE for choosing wrong

I APOLOGIZE for staying far too long

I APOLOGIZE for allowing others to devalue me

I APOLOGIZE for devaluing myself

I APOLOGIZE for doubting myself

I APOLOGIZE for allowing the doubt of others, to stifle to me

I APOLOGIZE for all that I failed to do…those things that keep me from being the absolute, best I could be.

I SHOULD HAVE told what was being done to me

I SHOULD HAVE pushed myself

I SHOULD HAVE chosen better

I SHOULD HAVE loved less

I SHOULD HAVE walked away sooner

Today, as I navigate through this Lenten Season, I finally forgive myself for all of the broken pieces. I vow to rebuild, one day at a time, and become all that God intended for me to be. All it takes is the ability to see in myself, what God sees in me, and allow Him to lead me through the remainder of my Lenten Journey.

All yourself to see you as God does, and all things will fall into place.
