Lord, please be patient with me

These few weeks have been a heart-tugging one. The sermon for the past two weeks have been, what I'd say, 'Jesus knocking at the door of your heart' kind. Today's, for example, talked about how we can accept one another although we may not approve what one another did. That is the kind of love God wants us to share with those around us.

The question popped: "Lord, what if we accept the person because we really liked the person, but don't approve what they do?" Answer seems quite straightforward, but I don't have an answer for myself because I'm in such a situation. Seems like I'm self-deceiving, but I'm hoping God is telling me otherwise. I mean, at least He's keeping silence now. Well, the time will come for God to reveal what He wants me to know. Waiting for this time to come is really scary.

I kind of regretted what I did actually. In fact, I think a 'friendship' like that had gone too much out. Well, my fault, I'd say. So I'm being real watchful with my actions now, not that my liking for him reduced, but friendship should be maintained with its beauty... nothing more & nothing less.

Lord, I know that so many times, I cried out to you & asked you countless 'why'. Please bear with me & be patient with me. I really have no idea what to do but I want to depend on You to guide me. Help me surrender myself to You so that things will turn out beautiful in Your appointed time. Amen.
