Love Confession Unrequitedtwiggy, Female, 54, USA, Waldorf
I am head-over-heels in love with a man who doesn't give me the time of day. He barely knows my name, but that's ok. I love him. It's not the fact that he is good looking, has a great job and a beautiful home; it's the fact that he is a Christian man that loves God. I love him so much. Not in an obsessive way, but in the way that I want him to have the best. I pray for him every day that God would bless him with his heart's desires. I also pray that God would give him a wife that will love him and be the best for him. I pray this even though I know it's not me. I'm not on his level. I'm a college dropout, I got knocked up during my sophomore year in college. I have a decent job and I own a home, but I'm nowhere on his level. He's a high powered attorney; I'm an office manager.
At any rate, I do love him. He is a committed Christian as I am. That's really the only thing we have in common. I just want the best for him.

Good choice, he sounds amazing.
But don't EVER say you're not on a guy's level! God loves you just as much as he loves your Christian hottie, and He doesn't want you to put yourself down like that. You know 1st Corinthians 13:4-8? "Love is patient, love is kind..." etc. That applies to yourself as well! "Love your neighbor as yourself" In order to follow this command, you need to love yourself! Don't compare yourself to others, just recognize the beautiful gifts God has given you.
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. You playing small doesn't serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
~Marianne Williamson
Sorry for the novel, but God put it on my heart to get this point across: you deserve the best God has for you. If this guy is the one, don't deny it because you think you're "less worthy" than him.
God loves you sister! |
