submission

One little word.

Yet so hard to accept. Heartbreaking.

Yesterday I was spanked to bruises without a peep yet today one quiet conversation renders me a blubbering, maudlin mess. This is what I wanted. That brokeness of spirit. To take every hope and desire and place them in His hands for His choosing. To surrender completely to His will regardless of the sacrifice.

I've done it.

Now, (tearfully) I'm just praying for the grace to accept it with humility and the strength to stand through it.

Thank you for sharing such a tender moment. To cleanse our bodies we sweat from our skin, to purify our souls we must shed tears that start from deep inside us.
