Day 45 – Proverbs 14: 10
Don’t expect anyone else to fully understand both the bitterness and the joys of all you experience in your life.
Proverbs 14:10, TPT
Sometimes, we expect too much from the people around us. When they say they love us, we will then think that they can always comfort and understand us the way we wanted them to be. But the truth is, no one else in this world can fully understand what you truly feel inside. Only God knows everything. So stop expecting that kind of affection from the people you love. Because only God can comfort you. Instead of getting so disappointed with them, try to consider their feelings as well, and only then will you know what it truly feels to see your loved ones crying, but then there’s nothing that you can do because you never fully understand how painful it is for them. If you wanted to comfort them, then just stay and let them feel that they are not alone, just like what God did in your life.
I pray that you will always have that kind of heart who is willing to understand others despite all the uncertainties and pain.
