Being christian does not mean being a pushover or tolerating pure nonsense.
A woman at church has latched on to me. She sits beside me chatting incessantly. Destroying my peace. I go there to commune with God and reflect on life. Yes, i need to. She has many problems, i listen and sympathise, I've prayed for her. I am always polite. But her problems seemingly have no solutions. I do not see why i am obliged to be involved. Actually it's worse. I had invited her to my house several times, i regretted it. She has been turning up uninvited, wasting my time. She lives a chaotic disirganised life. I do not.
So i told her straight, i must have peace! I've told her i cannot have her coming round any longer and she must sit elsewhere at church. I mean, even as we take communion, she chats in between. I need that time to think, pray, reflect.i cannot be robbed of that, just once a week after all.
So i prayed about it, the answer came back. Get rid of her. She took it quite well actually. She apologised but then began giving me presents to say sorry! My heart goes out to her but really, i am so stressed out!
