Bless This Mess

Dear Lord,

Bless this mess
I’ve no need to impress
Anyone

I am
Who I am
Who I am

Life has
Too much stress
Why should I guess
Or obsess
Over what possess-
ions
Someone else may want

Yes, yes —
I can address
This mess

I can assess
And progress
As I process
Decades of stuff

Nevertheless
dear Lord,
I need You
To bless
Me
As I move from mess
To less

I confess
My dependence
On You

Amen

This is my response to Stream-of-Consciousness Saturday‘s prompt: impress. I’m still working through a house full of stuff.

I have another five boxes ready to go out the door. Yay me.
