INTERVIEWER: How are you doing?
HEART: OK, I guess.
INTERVIEWER: That's good. Can I ask you a few questions?
HEART: Sure. I'll try to answer them truthfully.
INTERVIEWER: Fair enough. So...how come it's so hard for you
to love? Aren't hearts supposed to symbolize love?
HEART: Well, I really don't know. Sometimes, I think it's my
selfishness and the only love I have is for myself.
INTERVIEWER: How about Jesus? Don't you or didn't you love Him?
HEART: I still do.(pause) I know I need to love Him more though.
And loving other people would be a great start...though...I fail so many
times in doing so.
INTERVIEWER: I guess that's something you really need to work on then.
HEART:(chuckles) Yea, and I'm thinking it will take quite a while
for me to learn to love with Jesus' love. He inspires me...He's the
real deal.
INTERVIEWER: How's your condition? I mean...I've noticed that
you've been pretty tough and hard lately. Have you began to undergo
any changes?
HEART:(sigh) You're very much right.. I've been a hard
heart these past weeks. I don't know what happened to my passion
and zeal for the Lord. But surely enough, God always places His hand
over me and keeps on encouraging me even though I have so many other desires
that don't please Him. I believe I'm still and always am undergoing
changes during most every moment of my life.
INTERVIEWER: Well, God is the Faithful One. Just keep on doing
your best out there. It's a rough world.
HEART: Amen. Just keep me in your prayers. I think I need
it.
INTERVIEWER: I'll be sure to pray for you tonight. So...it seems
you really need to evaluate yourself and have less of yourself and more
of God. Do you have any further comments to add to this interview?
HEART: (pause)Not really. I've had a lot of stuff burdened within
me. I don't want to get into details...but just academics, future
and that sort of thing.
INTERVIEWER: Well, thank you so much for your time during this
tough, tough season.
HEART: No problem. OK...I better get back to the race.
Time's a tickin. God bless.
INTERVIEWER: God bless.
