I’m in a place of need right now. This is hard for me to admit. A large part of me believes this isn’t spiritual, that it’s selfish. But in my case it’s the truth.
I need to be poured into. I need someone to walk beside me daily and tell me how to take each step. Everyday I pour into people trying to please them or make their lives better. I give to work, to work people, to friends….. And I am empty. I’m not getting filled up.
It’s in my nature to be there for people, especially hurting people. To make them feel loved, valued, wanted. It’s a good spirit to have, but if you are not getting it back it leaves you dry and hurting.
I prayed today for God to minister to me. To minister to my emptiness and pain. Praying also for a family, a sense of community that allows my soul to be filled so that I can continue to fill up others.
