Flyin' Back

Has this ever happened to you? You are writing a note to someone, sharing some of your more...intense feelings. Maybe to explain. Maybe to justify. Maybe to just let them know exactly what they did and how it made you feel. You know what I mean, right?

And so you finish your little note and re-read it just for the mere satisfaction of how well you clarified your little thoughts and feelings....when all of a sudden its as if the words come flyin' back in your face and stick like a lump of peanut butter in a dry-as-cotton-mouth with no milk in sight to wash it down.
Because its as if what you are reading are words the Lord has written to you. About how you have treated Him. And exactly how that makes Him feel. What was meant for satisfaction and defense quickly turns into a reality-check and opportunity for repentance.
Is that speaking to anybody besides me? Anybody?
