I haven't grown one bit.

Still a kid in some ways in my own right, for some reason unknown. Too insensitive, too complainy. I've been trying to shake it off for a long time but it sticks, because somehow i vent it in that way. An error which needs changing.

Sometimes we hear but we don't listen.

Who then listens?
Those who care.

He listens. He doesn't just hear but he digests it, nods at it, knows its familiarity and reminds you. Where are you heading? What are you doing? Why?

When we turn to people, a) we're satisfied, b) we're left disappointed based on our own expectations, c) we're left utterly confused as from the start. But that's expected because no one's perfect.

But we realise that when option A appears, it only happens when the person listens. Not just hearing and throwing out a random solution, not just shrugging it off as the simplest thing ever, but accepting, empathizing and providing. Listening is never simple. How often have i listened? But there's one person who never disappoints.

Thank You for reminding me that I always have Your ears open to me... through the days that dragged by, J2 life is becoming more than a simple stroll. More than a rocky path but closer to an obstacle course. Challenged in so many different ways, with only one constant pillar. My mind has relied on the wrong places, trust put in the most testing areas. But one love never changes, never wavers, never fails and never expects anything in return.

One love from You.

" Many are the woes of the wicked, but the LORD's unfailing love surrounds the man who trusts in him."

Thank you for listening
