Ok this IS silly! I talk to the guy once, and now I can't stop thinking about him. I know that's wrong and it's totally messing with me and I need to quit. But to confess, I find myself tied to my computer checking email, and I've been logged into Yahoo IM for the past 48 hrs straight it feels like. REDICULOUS - I am not a groupy! LOL I am a strong, intelligent, educated single mother... to be reduced to highschool pining away for a guy is absolutely humiliating.
I refuse to let this affect my life. I'll journal about it, and I'll leave it at that. I've resolved myself to every time I feel the NEED to run to my computer to 'check' if he's on, or to see if he's emailed (which I know he won't - he already said he's busy this weekend) I'm going to pray for him. Lord knows he needs the prayer, and I need to remain focused and remember who MY God is.
So my prayer is this, right out of Ephesians 3:
Heavenly Father
I bow my knees before you, Lord that you would grant my friend out of the rich treasury of YOUR glory to be strengthened and reinforced with mighty power in his inner man by Your Holy Spirit indwelling in him.
May Christ through my friend's faith actually settle down, abide, & make His permanent home in his heart! May my friend be rooted deep in love and founded securely on love, that he would have the power and be strong to apprehend and grasp the experience of that love & what is the breadth and length and height and depth of it.
That my friend would really come to know practically, through experience for himself the love of Christ, which far surpasses just knowledge without experience; that he would be filled with the Zoe kind of life, & have the richest measure of your divine Presence, and become a body wholly filled and flooded with God Himself]!
Lord I plead on my friend's behalf that you pull him out of the fire and into your loving arms. Making and molding him in such a way that he cannot deny your presence and sees the truth that will set him free from the enemies clutches.
In your precious son, Jesus the savior of our earth's name, I pray - Amen
