Facade

I have to many facades.
At work I have one, I pretend to be ok with their jokes and opinions (unfortunately this carries into other parts of my life and I find myself thinking like them). At church at home I have another, there I'm a FM kid and therefore have to behave accordingly. Around my extended family there is another (by extended I mean the part of my family not living in Houston), we have to be better than the rest, we are "shown off" anytime we are all together. With the singles group I have another, I don't want any of them to know how weak my walk is or how behind I feel, so I cover it.
Does any one even know who I am? Do I even know my true self? Have I pretended for so long that I've lost "ME"?

complicated

Why do things have to be complicated??
I know life would be rather boring if it was simple. But why can't the little things simple and easy? Help me Father to get through this and to get done what needs to be done. Please give me courage, strength, and the right words. Amen.
