Her story on friendships
She is still looking for her soulmate in church.
She like the fact that she can mix into the older crowd, being a small girl in front of them, and being the one to be taken care of.
She enjoys the fact that she can mingle with the younger youths as well, appreciates it when they approach her, tell her things or just to joke, and she enjoys caring for them as much as she can.
She thank God for the bunch of close sisters she has and for the laughter that never cease. But, sometimes something seems to be still missing. She feels that nobody has time to hear her talk about her feelings. Everyone is busy. Nobody seems to prioritise her first and set aside time for her.
She waits. But she never gets it. She cries. But what's the point? And then she remembered how God had given her friends when she had prayed so hard for them. That was at the point when she was most lonely in church. And amazing God gave the most amazing miracle. Suddenly, she had friends. Suddenly, she is talking to more youths in church. And suddenly, she is one of them, in the big family of God.
So maybe she just has got to pray again. For that special someone in church. Someone who also looks forward to going church. Someone who can't wait for choir to start. Someone who feels jittery yet excited about doing church work. Someone to share testimonies with. Someone who will be there to pray with together whenever you need to. Someone who may not be perfect (because she isn't) but who, too, desires to love God with all that she has. Someone to scold her and bring her on the right track when she is going off the heavenly path.
She looks around in church. Who will be that girl?
She really envy the younger youths' friendship. If they continue to grow together in the Lord, their friendships will be the most precious gift from God.
She looked at the older youth's friendships. Friendships that were built up over these years in the Lord together! How precious they seems to her! She really hopes that in the years to come, she too can build up her own precious friendships in the Lord. Friendships that will be everlasting.
She shall pray. And she knows that God will give her what she needs.
But most importantly, she is beginning to really understand that God will be her everlasting friend, the one she should always seek first, and the one who will never fail her.
