Wonder Woman

Lord,
this book has “Wonder Woman”
emblazoned on its cover.
This evening I feel
that you are speaking those words
to me.

You are telling me
that I am wonderful,
that I am an amazing person
and that I can do things in my life
that are truly unbelievable.
You are calling me “Wonder Woman”
and you’re not joking.
You’re deadly serious.
You’re lovingly sincere.

You created me,
just the way I am,
on purpose.
You have plans for me,
despite my flaws.

Tonight you are inviting me
to lose myself in you,
to believe in you,
to believe in myself
and to become the wonderful person
that you have always intended
that I can be –
Wonder Woman!
