Dependency

What truly defines us? is it what we do? or who we know? do our successes, mistakes, or failures define us? I know I have often allowed these things to convince me of who I am. These days, just the very expectations and judgments of others can quickly break us down and cause us to lose hope. Choices… when the labyrinth of choices have conspired against you so that there is no “good” choice. only the “least bad” choice. Where do we turn when all of our good intentions fail us and we end up as wrong as humanly possible. What do we depend on? Who do we depend on?

For me when it seems that everything is stripped away and my soul is bared, I always end up running back to God to hand him my problems.

Faced with the “least bad” of several bad choices this week, I have struggled again with allowing my situation to define me, and becoming hopeless. As I drove to work one day this week. a song came on the radio…called Can’t Take Away that reminded me of what defined me. who I was, and who I depend on…

and nothing can take that away from me…
