I used to care
about all those frivolous things
Like what other people think
and the superiority of their opinions
as they inflated themselves above my own
I used to care
how things would land
How I might be perceived
until I realized fear was a lie
and I was done being deceived
I used to care
about being liked
until I knew deep in my bones
the approval I needed
was in liking myself
I used to care
so much
about status and success
My eyes were on goals
instead of on God
where they always belonged
I care more now
about what matters most
The Father
The Son
And the Holy Ghost…
