those boarders, they just keep torturing us

I am very disappointed in Him right now

He doesn't do anything.

they keep flaunting in our face

and this is OUR house.

I know I cant move God, but I wish He would try understand how difficult it is for us, the sense of injustice......

I really want to be able for Him not only avenge us, but let us see it, and maybe to bring some humility into those bullies....

but I don't think it will happen, as usual....

it hurt, it really does......

part of me don't want to care any more.....

it is like if He doesn't care, why should I?

may God's words be your light in this dark time.
Mat 5
Teaching about Love for Enemies
43 “You have heard the law that says, ‘Love your neighbor’ and hate your enemy. 44 But I say, love your enemies! Pray for those who persecute you!45 In that way, you will be acting as true children of your Father in heaven. For he gives his sunlight to both the evil and the good, and he sends rain on the just and the unjust alike. 46 If you love only those who love you, what reward is there for that? Even corrupt tax collectors do that much. 47 If you are kind only to your friends, how are you different from anyone else? Even pagans do that. 48 But you are to be perfect, even as your Father in heaven is perfect.

Praying for you

Praying for you

Hello

thank you very much for your prayer

and thanks for the reminder, it is really helpful

though sometimes I get this advice

pray for your enemies and love them

but all the while they continue to make our lives difficult and damage our property in the process.....

I can try to pray for my enemies, but it is not stopping them?

I have came across Christians on this site who seem to think love your enemies and pray for them will turn them into a friend every time, problem solved, but scripture never guarantees that.

I remember reading this book once, this author talked about she was pondering on verse love your enemy, and the spirit direct her attention to the word enemy. God was trying to tell her that loving our enemies does not quarantees you would turn an enemy into a trustworthy friend....

I am a Christian, I am called to love my enemy, but it does not give people the right to continues mistreat me, even after I have tried to be nice to them.....

and it does not make what they are doing OK........

Praying for your protection and your mom's at this most difficult and oppressing time.

A lease is a rental agreement, which sounds similar to what you have.

Is there a Legal Aid in your area?

You have my prayers; we are landlords as well, and great tenants are a blessing, but bad tenants can eat one up. Here in Canada, it is not all that easy to get rid of bad tenants, even with an agreement; lots of procedures, hearings, etc. I pray that this is resolved quickly.
