But you...

and then there are nights where you will give and give of yourself and it won't be enough.

you try to do the right thing and people will still look at you like you're crazy.

you will be given authority only for that authority to be questioned, maligned, spit at, criticized. most of the time by the people you really trusted. by the people you love the most.

BUT YOU will move forward. you will move forward so much that you will be alone. ALONE.

don't be surprised when you look around and it's just you, holding your staff, wondering...now what?

but you will have loved. you will have served. you will have stayed obedient.

people look at me and think why her? and yet in their heart of hearts KNOW I am for them. i care. without me they couldn't have done it. because I was chosen. I didn't choose.

so i will continue. march forward. not for them. not for you. but because He calls.

it's so lonely. it's so tiring. it's so worth it.
