“Nothing Lost”

purity
not something lost
not something gained
something “known”

when I say ‘I do’
I won’t lose my purity
of heart
I won’t lose my purity
of body
I won’t lose my purity
of spirit

I know who I am
I know what I think
I know how I feel
I know where I’m facing

when I say ‘I do’
purity remains

Right now, I have tears running down my face because I realize how selfish that was. Life isn’t about who likes me, notices me, or encourages me. Life is about the gospel, all that Jesus was, all that He did, all that He is inside of me, and to think that that other stuff bothered me is embarrassing, but from what I’ve learned this weekend, the place where my heart is right now is a very good place.
