I'm calling you out because I love you.mavriknmeclosetOctober 14 2006, 18:09:13 UTC
I don't know about you, but for me, relationships with guys are the single most distracting thing from my relationship with God. And sometimes it's not even hAving a relationship that is distracting. It's the desire. Maybe you should take a step back and see how much desiring something is taking a toll on your life . . . and your walk with God. I'm not assuming anything. But I know, personally, that I had to take a step back. When God says no, or takes something away, it's because he has something better in mind. And if this not having a relationship thing is really really upsetting you, then maybe you should pray that God takes away the desire. Relationships aren't what you are expecting them to be. There's ups and downs and they're strenuous. I don't really know what you expect the perks to be . . . I don't know what else to say except if you really want a relationship that's going to last then you have to be right with you and God first before you try to bring others into the equation. You know, you can't depend on a woman to make you happy and to bring you joy because honestly . . . only God can really do that. And if you're really looking at this from an ariel view . . . That's kinda what it sounds like. I mean why do you want a relationship so bad? Because you want someone to be there to depend on, someone to brighten your day. But shouldn't God be all of those things first and foremost? I'm just saying. DO a self-evaluatoin. I'm doing this is love, mikie. I hate to see you continually stuggle with the same thing and this struggle has gone as far as to even turn into bitter resentment. I hope things get better.

wow liz! thanks! not that you addressed that to me...or that relationships are a struggle, but some other stuff has been...and this was a good wake up call/slap in the face to me...especially the whole "when God says no..." it's tough to live with, especially when someone else or something else has been taking His place...well, i need to go finish an essay...but thanks liz!

it's okay. haha. i'm doing a lot better though than I was. Patrick is leaving :( I started going to a new church out by masters and I'm in love with it. School's been uber easy. I had to drop philosophy and psychology because SDCC told me they won't credit them. ugh. My health class makes me really really miss mrs lindy and physiology . . .because you know i actually LEARned stuff in that class. 0y. My health teacher is a scientologist. I work at build a bear! Everyone goes to Pierce. I swear a good 40% of our graduating class goes there and I've managed to run into ALL of them at least three times. So if you're having a difficult semester just be greatful that you're not stuck in the 13h grade at the "college of second chances." LOL. I hope you get through midterms okay. man. You're going to jon and chelsey's party right? it's the night of homecomming.

No. I'm going to Church of the Canyons. I'm going to sit in on one of weitzels classes at masters sometime. I miss him THAT much. My English teacher is the most repulsively crude man I have ever met. And he says the most faul things in class . . . Oh yes. And he's already labeled me the "jesus girl." Which I mean I don't mind so much because hey, I am. But he will say insulting things and just stare at me and wait for a reaction. I just. I don't know how to react so I just stare back.
