[__ Prayer __] Patience

[Perrinlan]

Okay, so I know I talk a lot about my relationships on here but I feel like it really helps me to get it out. I've been getting really close to a girl. If you remember the girl from the summer. I would say we've become best friends. A month ago I felt God telling me that I needed to tell her how I felt about her. I knew that we wouldn't start dating at that moment in time because she had told me a few times in general that she wasn't ready for a relationship with any guy. I was visiting her at college and I was very nervous about telling her so I waited until the last possible moment. I told her and she told me that she knew I liked her and she was glad that I said something but she wasn't ready for a relationship, for at least a year. We agreed to talk more about it later when we had more time. And that time was last night. We had a Skype call and talked more about it. I prayed and thought a lot of what I wanted to say and do. I struggle with patience. And I know its going to be hard waiting for a year or maybe even longer. But I do believe God wants me to wait for her. I love her. And she is worth waiting for and pursuing. I told her last night that I was going to wait for her. She said okay but she has no idea when she will be ready. I'm not asking for advice, I just want you to please pray that God will help me to be patient and for me to see her more as a friend than a potential girlfriend.
