Troubled Heart

Think of someone you feel close to.

It seems the people that I have a strong bond with are those that I can talk to and not just about anything but especially those things I am troubled about:

my weakness

my insecurities

my inadequacies

my disappointments

my heartaches

my failings

my regrets

my misunderstandings

as well 

as my hopes and dreams

In the past,

I may have disclosed too much with too many of the wrong people

which now has found a home in my TROUBLED HEART.

What I have learned:

There is one whom I can share all of the above with

and then some without worry of the outcome.

This person has all sides of the story,

all the hearts and perspectives involved.

He knows the end from the beginning.

Heknows the exact antidote for my pain and misgivings.

He has a listening heart as well as a listening ear.

He does not have to try to put Himself in my shoes to try to understand my heart.

HE ALREADY KNOWS.

He knows perfectly and exactly how to SUCCOR me.

I will never have to worry that what I share will have dire implications and a great cost for another. 

I will never have to give a second thought that what I have shared in confidence

will spread like wild fire.

That person is my SAVIOR

no matter what I tell Him

He will never lead me astray.

Here is my TROUBLED HEART.

"Lift up your HEART and be glad, for I am in your midst and am your advocate with the Father"

(Doctrine and Covenants 29:5)
