What do you do? When you have tried loving a person over and over, no matter how many times they hurt you on purpose or not, when do you say enough is enough? They spit in your face and then they come back to wipe it off just so they can do it again. They say they love you but their actions are completely that of somebody who just doesn’t want anything to do with you. Just wondering… because I really feel like I’m up against the Fists of the Devil who is swinging away like Barry Bonds at a home run derby.
I am getting my tail kicked.
Obviously Jesus tells us to keep turning the other cheek and don’t give up on them. After all God never gives up on us. We sin again and again and again and again (I could keep going but it would never end) and he keeps forgiving us.
Okay maybe you could, but…
What about if this person is causing you to be miserable and you are forced to put all of your dreams on hold so you could be faithful to forgiveness and servanthood. I don’t know about you, but I don’t know many people who would. I guess it’s just so hard to be patient and not be selfish. It takes discipline to a whole another level.
Waiting on a dream is one thing but waiting on something that brings misery and pain is another. I guess this is what separates Mice from Men. Who is willing to wait on a hopeless future so they can please GOD? Or are you a Man for waiting or just another fool who was blinded by a vision that was closed minded.
Enlighten me if you have the answers. Maybe I just make it a lot harder then it really is.
