In the desert is where I learn best, the hard way

Irreplaceable

When can we have a date, just me and you, even for just a day?

I feel like I’m drowning in a sea of blessings but what I really want is the Giver of these blessings.

It’s not that I don’t want to go out or go to the beach, or have fun with my friends this summer. I want them too but I want You more! I’m super grateful for this season, summer time, the sunshine, time to relax and spend time with family and friends. But I don’t want my summer to be defined by fun weekend trips. I want YOU in every single day of it!

I really hate this feeling of being stuck in things to do, when work gets in the way of me doing the things that I want.

I left my previous job because work consumed me there and I found myself doing nothing else except that. That became my world. And now, I have a stress-free job, but still it’s work! I know it is a great blessing and a miracle too and I know so many people do not have a job or are stuck in jobs that they hate. I appreciate my job, I am grateful for the blessing.

But, it still consumes 8-10 hours of my day. Then I need to sleep 6-8 hours as science would dictate and good health would demand, and spend another 3-4 hours of eating, taking a bath, getting dressed, preparing for work and getting ready for bed. How many hours left for You?

Why can’t it be just You and me for 10 hours at least?

I’m probably just being lazy and finding a good excuse not to work. But I just really look forward to the day when I can do everything that I want and spend 24 hours of my day with You and nothing but You. No need for work. No need to go out with friends because they too will be satisfied in being with You.

I miss you terribly.
I can’t believe my weekdays and weekends are full. I’m almost tempted to wish myself to be ill even just for a day just to be with You. Or to ask for a problem, a serious one, so I can shut off everything else, easily say NO to everyone without any explanation needed and just be with You.

Oh how I long to be with You.
You may fill my life with good things, good memories, good people and just goodness in everything I breathe but nothing and noone could ever replace You.

No pleasure comes close to what only You can give.

Your love is irreplaceable.
I want to drown in You.

Oh will You not come already and take me with You?
