Obsession -noun

1. the domination of one's thoughts or feelings by a persistent idea, image, desire, etc.


So! Are my thoughts and feelings dominated by... THIS... persistent idea, image and desire?



Domination -noun


1. rule or sway; control, often arbitrary.


Right. You may wonder (whoever "You" are... probably just me, judging by how lame each and every entry is, these thoughts must never see the light of day) why am I talking about all these?

Your talking about this... girl... that hangs on your mind daily.

This is something that has always perplexed you. You read the Word and you find no direct help, except stuff like, "If your burning in passion, its better to marry."

You've thought it out.

She's a friend. And she has no special feelings for you. Yeah, tough luck. But it's all for the better.

You're not ready. In each and every way, you're not ready. Financially, career-wise, maturity, spirituality...

You decided not to think about her. To be as normal as you can. If God so desires you two to be together, He'll make it happen. That's the whole idea of surrendering. Letting God know your feeling something, asking Him to help you do the right thing, relying on His strength and wisdom, and finally, trusting in His leading.

But of course, knowing is one thing, application is another. You still struggle, but that's normal. Your faith is will increase when you recognize who is in control. Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour.

Well, some food for thought. The "dance" between the male and female is akin to a... Pasar Malam. You bring your goods, you lay it out on a sheet, then you go out and do some look-see. In this case, I've spotted her mat and her goods and I get interested. But we need to do a trade. So, in this case, she's taken a look at my stuff and well... She's window shopping, at least, at my mat.

Just some silly analogy. heh.
