This post is part of my weekly Time for Honesty. I do my best to share something that's on my heart that is honest,
sincere, and transparent - something that will get you thinking and get you to be honest with yourself.
Sometimes, just sometimes, I wish it was obvious.
I wish you could see how tired I am. How worn out my body is. How I feel well for about 2-3 hours a day.
Sometimes, I wish it was obvious.
I wish you could see that I'm not coughing because I'm nervous. I'm not coughing because I have a cold. I'm coughing because (ironically), it helps me get better.
Sometimes, I wish it was obvious.
I wish you could see when I'm walking next to you to your dorm room how hard it is for me to keep up with you. I don't choose to walk slowly; it's the only way I know to get around.
Sometimes, I wish it was obvious.
I wish you could see that when I miss class, it is because I'm tired. But not because I haven't slept. I'm sick, you see. I'm always sick.
Sometimes, just sometimes, I wish it was obvious.
And then I realize.
God sees me in my pain.
He sees my tiredness. He knows why I cough so much. He understands that it's hard for me to keep up. He gets that sometimes, sleep just isn't enough.
Sometimes, just sometimes, I wish it was obvious.
And then I remember.
To him, it is.
Question: Do you deal with anything that you wish was more obvious to others?
I'd love to hear from you about this (or anything else)! Just drop me a comment or send me an e-mail!
