God didn’t prepare me enough to be an older sibling.
It’s not like I don’t try. It’s just that:
Life doesn’t make sense to me more than half the time, so how am I supposed to try to make it make sense to someone else?
I am still constantly looking to people for advice on the tough issues, so how am I supposed to give advice on them?
I can’t keep my own relationships straight and work them out, so how can I help someone else with theirs?
School questions? Sorry, that’s over my head. Relationship problems? Can’t help there, I always mess mine up. Parents? Friends? God? Decisions? Oh please don’t ask me.
It’s not like I’m not trying! I just can’t seem to get the answers for myself and therefore can’t help.
God must have given special abilities and skills to people He placed in the role of “older sibling,” I’m just not sure what happened when He got to me.
I feel like I’m failing them. I’m seriously am falling down on my role.
I’m taught to depend on God for everything else, am I supposed to depend on Him for this too?
Because I want to be the best big sister for them, and I just can't seem to get it right on my own.
