They sneer and I cringe
They roll their eyes and I wither
They turn away and I fade
They smile and I lighten
They wink and I hope
They engage and I flourish
When does it come…
…the moment when my worth
comes not from them, but from me?
In their sneer that leads to You
In their rolling eyes that point to You
In their ignorance that opens the door to You
Then they smile and it is nice
Then they wink and I am kind
Then they engage and I receive…
…but through You I feel my worth
Through You I feel the Love…
…the Love that gives me
all I will ever need…
…in that path to You
paved by the need unfulfilled by them…
…oh my Lord, how You find me…

As I sat on my chair this a.m., trying to figure out how to
“please them”, I read this and knew it wasn’t “them” I
had to please. This is exceptional, Jessica. My worth
comes not from “them”. Thank you. Mary
