Okay, I’m Cool With That

You asked me to pray for you because you need the strength to do something you feel you must do. I don’t need to know all of the details. Just asking me to pray for you is all the information I require. So if you have nothing else to say; I am cool with that.

You said that now is not a good time to talk because you are dealing with the after effects of a broken heart. You can’t understand why your romantic partner did you that way, but you realize you must pick up the broken pieces of your heart and move on. You don’t have to share the gory details because I know what it’s like to have someone steal your heart. If you want to put a pause on our relationship while you recover from the one from your past; it’s okay, I’m cool with that.

You don’t understand why some singles seem to be so desperate because you certainly don’t feel that way. Thank God you’ve got this singleness thing figured out. You just have trouble seeing why certain singles seem to lose their minds for some loving. If you don’t even want to try to understand and you care not to entertain the thought; that's fine, I am cool with that.

You want someone to love you just as you are and you don’t seem to be making any progress in finding true love. You hate to come across as a weakling, but there are nights you cried yourself to sleep and still it turned out to be a sleepless night. If you want to pretend like nothing is wrong and you prefer I not be so insightful; that’s alright, I’m cool with that.

Being your friend means I take you as you are wherever you are in your singleness. I understand that we all have good days and not so good days and sometimes very bad days. Having bad singleness days does not make you a bad person. In fact, Jesus paid the price so that none of us have to be “bad”. Ain’t that good! So when singleness is like a walk in the park on a cheery spring day, I won’t steal your sunshine. But when singleness is like the rain that ruins your parade and your picnic; I will be there with an umbrella. Where ever you are is where I will be. Come hell or high water, we are going to be okay in our singleness. We both are children of God and I am definitely cool with that!
