Broken...
My heart is heavy today. I feel like I have come leaps and bounds in my friendship with someone, only to be abandoned. I mean, is it me?! Have I done something wrong!? Is it wrong to express interest in the life of a friend and expect, at least the common decency of a response?! Is all of my investment in vain?! Seriously...at this point I feel like I am just wandering around, lost in the moment. I'm not really sure what God is trying to teach me, but I am content to find rest in His Word and trust that He knows what is best right now for Sarah. I am brokenhearted and weak. I have nothing to offer. But He is still on His throne and sovreign. And He still has a plan for me and my best interest in mind. And He is still good.... :)
Let us hold fast the confession of our hope
without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.
Hebrews 10:23

Sarah, I'm saddened to hear of this sadness in your heart. I think all of us at one time or another have felt this type of abandonment by what we were so sure was someone who would not abandon. We have either felt abandonment or possibly futility when all of our time invested in someone else seems to produce so little. Thank you for reminding me that He reigns regardless. It is times like you describe that we remember Who is faithful and Who does not abandon or disappoint.
"Whom have I in heaven but You? And there is none upon earth that I desire besides You. My flesh and my heart (and my friends) may fail; but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever." -Psalm 73:25-26.
Psalm 51 teaches us that God desires for us to have a broken and contrite spirit. You are on the way to being lifted up.
