Hey there prayer warriors,
Just been dissapointed in people of late .....the more ugly aspects of peoples nature have been coming to the fore and it has left me feeling jaded and somewhat disillusioned with the people I know.
I want to understand Gods love better because I understand that to be the key to truly loving others ...not just saying nice things to them - but truly having their best interests at heart.
I feel like I have been very self involved and self protective recently - which is mainly a defense mechanism against being hurt.When offended , it takes a long time for me to forgive and reconcile or even want that person back in my life ....I want to be able to forgive as a reflection of what I have recieved in Christ - but at the same time set healthy boundaries with people who cross my path.
At the moment I cant be bothered with the human race yet I know I am not better than anyone else - which is frustrating.
My prayer request is that I might better comprehend Gods love for me - that I may in turn love others through Him who died to set me on a path of love and service - even when their corruptions are all too apparent.
With thanks ,
Mooky.
