I need some prayers concerning my very irksome relationship with a certain individual in my vicinity…
This person thought that I could be put in the position of an authority figure and that I was a kind of pillar of society who should be listened to and relied upon for Christian love and charity…
But I did not live up to this and for that I suffered very much. And I had my own unhappy situation which made it even worse for me (and was perhaps why I didn’t live up to their expectations.) The person, of course, did not know that, nor did I explain to them, and they could not possibly have understood. They only saw that I was displaying an intense lack of the Christian empathy which they had perceived in me and so desired for me to provide for them.
I’d say, therefore, that it was equelly hurtful to both myself and the other person. It continues to annoy me. I think that it is within my capacity to provide what they were looking for in me in the first place. I also think that if I had explained my situation, they would have been ready and more than happy to do something to solve it for me.
I now hope that we reach a happy and peaceful solution to this.
