Weary, Yet Ready
I am tired.
Do not get me wrong; I love teaching. I love my students. It is just that I am spiritually weary.
I think I know why. I have not met up with friends for a long time. I dun just mean christian friends, but friends from my own college. My colleagues are exactly that, colleagues, not friends. I think that drains me, because i have always wanted to be someone who is approachable and able to make friends easily.
Yet as i ponder on why I grow weary, I hear God saying this: Then go.
Friendship is grows. It takes time and effort. Sometimes, i just do not bother with the people, and i do not know why i am such a person. I do feel like a person who does not understand what makes a friend, though i may know in my head, my heart is devoid of such understanding.
Father, would you give me a spirit of friendship, that i may know and love my colleagues more.
