what my parents don't realize

Every time they threaten to kick me out. or tell me that they're glad I don't live with them. or tell me to go live with the other parent. it hurts my heart. a lot.... It sucks to not feel wanted. They say they love me...but yet they're so quick to say hurtful things........ is wanting to be wanted so awful?

I realized something

Do you know those one sided relationships? The ones where only one person is putting forth any effort. Only one person is trying to make it work. How bad they make you feel when you realize that you're the only one trying to keep things together.

When we sin, that's the kind of relationship we create with God.

He loves us unconditionally. No matter how wrong we do, he still loves us.

But when we do wrong, we aren't showing him that we love Him too.

God is putting forth all the effort, and we are the ones leaving it one sided.

That's why we should want to do good. So we can keep the relationship equal.

Relationships only work, if both parties want it to.

God is always doing his part. So we need to as well (:

i cant help but cry

Father in Heaven,

Today, I pray for my family. That they may receive all the joy and happiness you have prepared for their lives. Let them know that I love them, as you do.


In Jesus' name, amen.
