True Maturity
This past week, I have learned what it means to have a heart after God. I had some issues with my roomate, ones that even I felt awkward around. At first, I handled it completely horribly. I went around telling everyone what had happened. I am not sure what my reasoning for going around and telling everyone was, but I know that it couldn't have been anything good for her. My roomate, isn't bad. I admire her for her relationship with God. She is one of the few girls on my floor that has a personaly, daily quiet time with God. She is committed to her relationship with Christ. She may not be my best friend, but she has never really done anything intentionally to hurt me. But I, being the inconsiderate, immature person that I am, went and hurt her. And the sad thing is, she doesn't even know that I told anyone. I am not even sure if she even knows that I know! Anyways, I finally realized after telling like the twentieth person that this was hurting her more than anything. My focus shouldn't have been on how can I embaress her, but more of how can I help her and be a friend to her. I feel horrible for what I did. Everytime someone brings it up now, all I can do is apologize and ask them not to talk about it. I still haven't talked to my roomate, and this is something that I really need to do. I believe that this is going to be the most awkward connversation that I have ever had. But, am I hurting her more by not talking to her? Why should I stay in my comfort zone when she is struggling with something? Thats a little selfish of me, is it not?
