Most girls start of in the world as innocent and beautiful. They are open emotionally, but usually they are happy. Then they get older. Someone hurts them. Justice is perverted. It breaks her heart. The smile disappears. They clam up. After a while they learn to smile again, but it’s not the same. The innocence is gone. They are a good fake. They grow numb to some extent. They have walls around their heart, and they aren’t going to let anyone in. They don’t cry, but they don’t smile either. Usually they get quite successful though, because they can be tough like the men. There is just one problem… they aren’t men, and being tough is killing them.
Girls, putting walls up around your heart will starve it of the love it needs. Then you in turn start looking desperately for love, but on the same hand you’re pushing it away. It’s no wonder boys are confused with girls. On one hand you say you want him, but on the other hand, you are pushing him away.
You can’t seem to admit the truth of something being wrong because that would be showing weakness, but you still want him to do something about it. When he believes you that “nothing” is wrong you get hurt further, so you build up the walls higher. I know lying is easier than being vunerable and telling the truth. We don’t want to be weak, but being like fine china means being breakable. Being soft means being mouldable. Being a flower means you have to open up and risk getting crushed or wilt and die.
If you decided to be tough and brittle, it might work, but if you break, you will shatter. If you are soft, yes it will hurt, especially at first, but you will become strong, truly strong, in a way that you didn’t realise was possible.
Now, I’m not saying you won’t ever get hurt. Love hurts sometimes….most of the time for the average teenage girl.. But He will protect you. He will hold you. If you trust HIM rather than yourself.
Oh, hurting Girls. God loves you and He wants you to trust Him with your heart so that when things go wrong and you’re getting pushed around, and your life just seem like a crazy downward spiral… when your team is losing, when the nation is in turmoil, when no-one likes you, when the electrician fixes everything excepting your problem, and you have a 7 minute walk in the rain. He wants you to be so secure in Him that when it happens, and while you may be flabbergasted and don’t like what is happening, you are not feeling sorry for you. You have the peace that surpasses all understanding, because God, is your God and He is taking care of you.
Gaurd your heart, yes, but gaurd it through Christ.
I most defiantly struggle with this in my life, so i thought i would share.
Until next time….
