A lovestruck Romeo, sings the streets a serenade
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made
Finds a streetlight, steps out of the shade
Says something like, "You and me, babe, how about it?"
Juliet says, "Hey, it's Romeo, you nearly gave me a heart attack"
He's underneath the window, she's singing
"Hey, la, my boyfriend's back
You shouldn't come around here, singing up people like that
Anyway, what you gonna do about it?"
Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start
And I bet, and you exploded in my heart
And I forget, I forget.. the movie song
When you gonna realize, it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?

Next week is a holiday week, thank goodness. I'm behind in schoolwork and the rest of my life, and the holiday was sorely needed just to catch up with everything and get ready for the coming CA. The NATAS Travel Fair will be on at the end of that week, too, and the plan is to grab the Europe flight tickets there, and no later.
How hard and awkward it is, when "friends" just isn't natural, nor does it feel that way. I know. But how can you explain that some things just have to be sorted out first, or when time just isn't right yet? Especially when it's so sensitive, that not making any mention would be imprudent and unthinkable, but overstating could potentially jeopardize?
It's something that, to some, only comes with time, and effort. And therefore, until then, I'll be that friend to guide you, intercede for you through prayer, and to show you, lead the way. In the search for identity and for meaning, and purpose in life, what greater joy is there than discovering Jesus?
"But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you." (Matthew 6:33, NKJV)
I've never managed evangelism, sharing the Good News, very well. I'm neither highly empowered with incredible charisma, nor particularly powerful testimonies, and I suppose I'm not the greatest example of who a Christian should be. But the time comes when God convicts you of something, places someone in your spirit to pray for. In combination with an actual desire to see that someone know the relationship they can share with God, a real hope for one to truly be saved and recieve salvation, even people like me step out. Especially when you can relate to the way he/she thinks and rationalises, too. And so, I will forsake my reticence for once, because this time, I simply care too much.
Nights.
