I know that God would visit a sick friend in their time of need; so, that's what I should do, right? Right. I have, but it's hard. You see, my friend has not always been the nicest, nor the most easy-going. Heck, she'd give the waiter, the bus boy, AND the valet a hard time, EVERY time. How often do you dine out? EVERY time, she'd let them have it. She is like my sister and I love her, in spite of herself.
The more I think about the situation that caused a rift between she and I, the more I hone in on my feelings. I am a sucker for a good story, most times. If I have it, and someone says they need it, I give it. Sometimes there is a genuine need, and sometimes not. I firmly believe that God blesses me for giving, whether the need was genuine or not. In my opinion, the worst part about giving, is betrayal. Some people will do anything for money. If I have it and you know I will give it, why be dishonest? My heart is hurting.
If you have it, and I need it; but you don't give it? My heart is hurting. Guess how much liquid cash you have? I am in need, but you don't give it? My heart is hurting.
I visited my sick friend, but no mention of the rift. I am in need. Do I let it go or do I say something? Do I visit again or not? My heart is hurting.
