In Five years time
I might not know you
In Five years time
We might not speak again
In five years time
We might not get along
In five years time
You might just prove me wrong
I think it's so strange that you can know someone day then down the road not at all....
We meet so many different people that I feel it's kind of a hopeless situation.
Our hearts are made to love, love deeply, care for others. But how are we able to do it with all the relationships we have in our lives.
Answer: We don't. We choose to have shallow friendships so that we can have friendships. We become afraid to stir the waters for fear of being alone, but really what's the point of that!?
God says that it is not good for man to be alone, He has created us for relationship. Maybe it's not the kind of relationship that we feel we need.
It seems to me that we feel we must have consistent interaction with people in order to feel loved. It seems to me that we are seeking after the wrong kind of love. Love from people will only go as far as their success of meeting your expectations can take you.
The fact of the matter is...people will only fail to meet your expectations just as you will fail to meet theirs....
Is it a hopeless situation?
I'm suggesting a change of priorities. God first. Relationships second.
Out of the overflow, yes?
The only One who will meet of your expectations....God.
It's in him that you will be satisfied, so satisfied that you will not need to fulfill your insecurities and desires from the people around you.
You will turn into life-giver.
One who can turn every relationship no matter how long it lasts into something meaningful and glorifying to God.
So I say let's step out of the shallowness and care!
Love with out holding back!
Have Jesus kind of relationships.
