I wasn't sure where to put this, but I did want to share it

Dear Daddy God,
Sometimes my faith is so big that I feel like I can do anything. Other times, I feel like it is as small as a speck of sand.
I don't have much confidence in myself so I take what others say to heart more than I should. I rely too heavily on the opinions of others when what You say should be heard over them; instead it is muffled and I can't decipher Your truth for satan's lies.
When I stand and watch as others obtain that which I have prayed for, my hope seems to deflat. I can't seem to see passed my sadness even though my smiling face is all they see. You, Daddy God, can see the pain behind the smile. You see the hurt that I hide. I try to keep it inside. I don't want pity. I don't want the surface answers.
My frustration builds. I yell out my desire and yet...here I am. Nothing changed. I'm still where I was.
My circumstances may not have changed, but something deep inside where only You and I dwell together has changed. I still hope and pray. I still smile. I still long and desire. I still wait.
I can feel Your arms wrapped around me as I cry. You know me so deeply, so intimately. I don't need to talk when I'm here with You.
Love shines out from everywhere. In that moment, where I meet You in our secret place, I know. Everything I have ever hoped for or hoped to be may or may not happen, but my faith is in You.
I know You are faithful. And here, with only You and Your Princess (Me), a moment has occurred. You stretch out Your hand and ask “Will you dance with me, My Daughter, My Princess?” How can I say no?
I take Your hand and You lead me in this dance of life. I might not know what my future holds, but I know who holds my future and my hand.
I love You, Daddy God. Thank You for asking me to dance and to live life to the fullest no matter what may come my way!
Love Always,
Your Princess
