ASKING:



One night, I was by myself, weary, and
exhausted. I was in the middle of doing allot of
traveling, I was not with friends and family. I
had flown home for the evening, but it seemed
like nobody noticed. They were used to me
being gone.

It was after 9 PM, and I started arguing with
my God.

“I’m working hard. I’m lonely. Does anyone
care? You’ve told me to tell You what I need,
and tonight, God, I particularly need the
presence of male energy, I need someone I
can trust to care about me in a nonsexual way.
I need to be held."

I laid down on the couch and closed my eyes.

The telephone rang minutes later. It was a
former colleague who had since become my
friend. “Hey, kid,” he said. “You sound really
tired and needy. Stay right where you are. I’m
going to drive out and give you a foot-rub. It
sounds exactly like what you need.”

Half an hour later, he knocked on my door.
He brought a small bottle of oil with him, and
gently massaged my feet, gave me a hug, told
me how much he cared about me, then left.

It is safe to trust God.
