Still

"Bless and do not curse." Romans 12:14

I have jumped to conclusions, and I'm sorry.

I'm glad we talked,
I'm clearer now that
Maybe you don't want this as much as I thought you did.
Maybe you are still confused
And need time.

It still hurts me that you acted before you were sure
But maybe that's what you need now.

"Repay no one evil for evil." Romans  12:17

And I'm thankful
That once again God stopped my hand
(like He has done several times before)
And gave me the peace I so desperately needed
Even though He had given it just the night before.

And once again
I'm made aware
That sometimes, even just trying on my own effort to focus on God
Isn't leaning on God.
Instead, His eternal Word can be so powerful.

I pray you will likewise find peace
And the answers you are seeking.
I still care, deeply
For you.
