I think what hurts the most is that no one even notices.
I get so frustrated with my church sometimes. First, the dictatorship bugged me… then the fakeness… and now the stupid restriction of women not being allowed to pray!
Not counting our Sunday morning girls class (which is usually my one grace of the week), I haven’t been to our church in like 8 weeks. And aside from my two best friends, no one has said anything. If that doesn’t make you feel bad, what does? That all of your so-called “Christian friends” don’t even notice when you’re hurt and missing?

For my sake, look around in your life and notice who’s missing. You’d be surprised at how much it’d mean to them for you to tell them that you love and miss them…

disclaimer: i did go to one Wednesday night class (no service, though) a couple weeks ago, and a retreat this past weekend, but nobody said ANYTHING about me not being there or practically being in tears the whole time both times. *sigh*
