"Dear Abba,
"The voices in my head this morning are hounding me with the recurring moments I’ve turned away from You because I could not part with all my rich young ruler wealth, the numerous days I’ve Judas-kissed Your cheek in the garden of betrayal, and the countless times I’ve warmed myself by a traitor’s fire and declared like Peter 'I do not know Him!' But then Your accepting voice scatters them all with a mercy fierce and ultimately kind, and I remember that I am loved. I want to simply be in You this day."
