can You carry me....please?

 
after anyone who read this, please, really, please dont rush over to me and comfort me, because thats not why i post this here. im not seeking for sympathy or comfort from anyone. i just want this to be a place where i can just cast it down instead of bottling it up. you are very welcome to leave comments and stuff, just dont call/text/aim me to ask if im ok. im fine, thats how i can type this on here.

these are some things that i was thinking about when i drove to the park after i got back from college park. i basically sat there by myself, thinking about all these things and eventually crying about these things because i really just have no other way to express them. i feel so insecured about everything in this world, and i realized that all i really have is God, and i know that it must have broken His heart seeing His children crying so much because of helplessness. but i just cant help it but cry it out, thats all i can do, thats how helpless i feel. i cant do anything, not even controlling my own tears, thats how helpless i feel.

sometimes, i really feel like unappreciated, by family, friends, co-workers, just people around me. no matter how much i pour out to others, i feel like they just dont really care. i know that in whatever we do, we should do it as in doing it for God, and we certainly shouldnt seek for any repayment from others, but really, it sometimes broke my heart that no one really cares. even though i tried my best, really showing love to others, they seem like they cant feel anything. and the more i think about this, the more i realize that how much more painful for Jesus to come to this earth and receive this kind of treatments from those that He loves so much. the worst thing is that He can see beyond the mere actions, something that i only see from people. He can see the hearts of the people, of those that He loves, He knows their hearts, He knows what they are thinking, He knows that they dont love him back, from the bottom of their hearts, He knows it all. how painful is this!!! just thinking about this can make me cry so much because i used to be those people, i used to be those who dont love Him because i think that i know better than anyone else, i used to be those who dont show love to others, who dont have compassion on others, who dont even care about others. how heartbroken must Jesus have felt!!! that He poured out everything He has, even His life, to those who dont care about Him, who dont love Him, or even hate Him, so that He can show them His love, so that people can experience this amazing love that nothing on this earth can replicate. how much Jesus had suffered for our disobedience, our disbeliefs, our sins!!

a policeman showed up in the parking lot after a while. he asked me if im ok and that i have to leave the park because its really late and the park is closed already. i told him that i was just thinking. but the fact that he asked me if im ok just hit me so hard, because that was what i needed at that moment: someone to be there and ask if im ok, to show that they care, except thats not the person im waiting for, not the person im expecting. but really, why did i even put so much hope in people anyways? why do i still expecting so much from people when i know that people are so imperfect and they will fail me for sure?

at the end i realized that im basically just complaining to God about things that are not going well in my life. i know from the beginning that the path to follow Jesus is not easy, yet i still longed for easy Christian life ahead of me. i just feel really ashamed because of my disobedience, my disbeliefs, and my sins that had driven me to this wall, and i know unless i turn around and really find the footprints of Jesus and follow him, i wont find my way out from this maze. though im really confused and just want to give up, i really want to trust in God and let Him carry me instead. im really tired of things around me thats not going in the right way. i hate getting hurt of things that people dont even know, dont even care. i dont want to shed any more tears on things that are not even gonna last eternally. i just want God to carry me. i just want Him. can You please come and carry me, Abba Father?

praise You in the storm by casting crowns- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHdcyue0bSw

I was sure by now
God You would have reached down
And wiped our tears away
Stepped in and saved the day
But once again, I say "Amen", and it's still raining

As the thunder rolls
I barely hear Your whisper through the rain
"I'm with you"
And as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise the God who gives
And takes away

And I'll praise You in this storm
And I will lift my hands
For You are who You are
No matter where I am
And every tear I've cried
You hold in Your hand
You never left my side
And though my heart is torn
I will praise You in this storm

I remember when
I stumbled in the wind
You heard my cry You
Raised me up again
My strength is almost gone
How can I carry on
If I can't find You

I lift my eyes unto the hills
Where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord
The Maker of Heaven and Earth

    angel, it seems like your going through a tough time :( i'm sorry that it feels like no one appreciates you cuz you really are a wonderful person. sigh... sometimes i feel like the things i do too are futile and often times i feel like there's no point in doing stuff and that its hard to find meaning in the things i do. i guess, even if people don't care, at least God recognizes your love and generosity right? and what could be better than that.

    As for what you said about you complaining to God for the things that aren't going well in your life, i kno wut u mean. wouldn't it be great if being a Christian meant a simple and easy life by just trusting God? Unfortunately, Jesus tells us that the gate and road is narrow. As Christians, we should expect hardships and obstacles in life.

    To be honest, i'm not exactly sure too sure about what the whole situation going on is but im glad to hear your fine at least and i pray that you'll continue to find comfort in God. btw, thats one of my fav casting crown songs ha

    Here's a song i listen to sometimes when im feeling down too. It's kinda old, well not that old but you've probably heard it. I still enjoy it and i hope you do too.

    hey angel, im sorry u feel that way...honestly i think everyone feels that way, (and like u said Jesus too)...thats just basically my belief...i mean "everyone needs compassion" and thats why we ALL need God...and i expressed this for a long time...

    i dont know if everyone feels this way, if everyone is just hiding and bottling it up inside...

    but what if everyone is...and so..

    (like i obviously feel this way...)

    anyways so wat if everyone feels this way? i mean i know how painful it is, u know how painful it is...so maybe God is teaching us compassion, like for others...

    i mean just now, when i see u hurting, when i see u feeling something similar to me(i used to say that all the time "no one cares about me"), or maybe even more difficult than me, i wish i cud do something for u...or even more for u...or in other words ive developed compassion, or maybe in better words, it hurts me as well...when b4 if someone felt this way, i had no hint of how that person feels

    and its hard sometimes, but if thats wat it takes to praise God...and if thats wat it takes for u to reach out to others and love unconditionally, and if thats what it takes to understand how Jesus feels...

    anyways ill keep praying for u and for u to grow from this, clinging more and depending more on God,
    and angel theres ppl who God uses, who care about u, who can share ur burdens, who can encourage u, who can pray for u, who can love u, who can listen to u, who can cry with you, who can hug u *hug*
    (like me and vincent for examples =])

    but still ur ryt, u cant expect too much from them, they can help, but ultimately like u said, only God can satisfy, He is perfect, He has the perfect love, let God's love satisfy you =]

    i like that song from vincent, i think he showed that to me too =] haha when i was down maybe? but heres another song, that i already shared with u and the freshmen, but no one cares haha when i shared it XD or no one cares when i do share and send out long messages to u guys XD

    i thot it matches the title of ur blog =]

    o yea and u know how God is always there for us, i mean how comforting is that. God is always there and will carry us through the hard times. and God's love *sigh* just thinking about how much God loves u, (maybe its kinda selfish) but isnt that comforting? that He is in control He will never let go?

    but also think about Jesus...who has always had God....even when ppl reject Jesus, Jesus cud still cling to God and could still be ok because of God...but then on that cross...on that cross...Jesus said, "my God my God, why hast thou forsaken me"
    and just think of Jesus rejected by ppl...and rejected by GOD HIS OWN FATHER....ahhhhh =[ complete aloneness...and its our fault that Jesus had to go through that...because Jesus loves and God loves...They both had to go through that =[

    anyways take care, we all love u angel! and even if we dont say it as often as we should, we realy really appreciate what you do for us =] really really I can tell God is working in you and i can feel the love of Christ in you =] *hug* be joyful always knowing God is here with us =D
