Why do relationships hurt so much?
I am beginning to see that perhaps I became too selfish in my relationships. Perhaps I expected too much. . . I had this idea in my head that my relationships were invincible. . . But that is far from the truth.
I wish that I would learn the first time so I didn't have to go through a similar situation, but I guess I'm too hard-headed.
Sometimes I just feel like I don't have enough energy to pour into any new relationships with other people because I'm afraid they will suffer the same fate as previous relationships, and I don't want to go through the same pain again.
One good thing comes when my relationships hurt the most: I have no other place to go but to Him whose relationship is stronger to me than any other can be.
I recognized this concept early on, but accepting it was harder than I at first thought. Why can I not accept that God is the only relationship that I need?
So I can only trust that God is listening to my cries and hurts, and cling to the promise that all things work together for good for those who love God.

Sorry you are going through a rough time, I'll pray that God will reveal His purpose even in this. Many things come & go, but God is forever. Trust that He is sovereign. Love you, Mrs. J.
