KeepTheFaith15 is struggling. Let's give her a helping hand!

thanks for the uplifting words. imstill not doing great but im getting better

KeepTheFaith15,

I agree with Sharky. We have big shoulders, and big hearts. Sometimes it helps to talk about things, you don't have to hold everything inside.

We are here for you!

If you sing a special song to Jesus out loud, I bet you will feel better. Just get your mind off of you for a moment and focus on Jesus, just give it a try and let us know how it worked.

*hugs*

don't let go and don't give up, lean on God and us.

thanks guys!

Praying for you keepingthefaith15.

C'mon, cheer up little one! God works in mysterious ways sometimes we dont' understand. But I would reckon that it is one that would give us hope. Just err...75 years to go for us to have eternal life

Greg says:
heart just isnt strong enough to do what a normal heart does and so it doesnt beat right
Greg says:

thats the convo i had with my ex. all this hoping and raying for nothing. i wont stop but whats the use. he's being taken away from me, all this for nothing. life sucks.

Is his heart problem why you're apparently having a crisis of faith?

If you see your ex fairly often, or know someone who does, you and/or they should get CPR training. You can get it at your age.

By the way, do you know if it was caused by medication? Diving? Heavy drinking? Drugs? Something else that's unknown?

I'm not a doctor. So research the things I talked about before doing them, 'cause I just took a brief look around the 'net. No extensive research or anything. I don't know what I'm talking about in this area.

Do not avoid your friend because it depresses you to see him be ill or talk about it. He needs you now more than ever.

i wish the healing will come..because i need it

Keep the Faith-

I know times like this are hard and nothing we can say right now will take away the pain and anger that you are feeling. There is only one who can and that is Jesus. There are times sometimes when nothing in our life makes sense and all we can say is "I trust in You completely. Your ways are not my ways. I don't understand Lord why this is happening, but I will trust in You." He will be there to bring you peace. Maybe not understanding, but He can give you peace when nothing or no one else can.

I don't know why Greg is going through this right now. I just have to trust to he is in God's hands. And that God will see him through, whatever the outcome. Is he saved? If not, this may be a excellent opportunity for you to introduce him to Jesus. He needs a strong friend right now KTF. I pray that God will bring healing to your friend, to you, and to help give you strength and wisdom and courage during your time of struggle. He loves you KTF and He wants to see you through this. You just have to calm down and let Him. And it looks like you have some good friends here who want to help you as well.

You are in my prayers!

I am praying for you KeepTheFaith and your friend.

Keepingthefaith15, I , too have been reading bits and pieces of your troubles. I am trying to gather in my mind a few things, are you 15 years old? Life does seem to stink sometimes whether you are 15 or 55. For you, it sounds like your faith is becoming alittle shaky. I have been there as I am sure most of us have who have been christians for any period of time has. Seems like no matter how hard you try, satan is winning. But, he doesn't have to be. This is when you do just what you are doing and talk through it with Him and with others who share your faith and believe in the power He has. This world is filled with darkness, no denying that. But I have to believe that His Word is Truth. One day, there will be no more sickness, no more disease, no more pain. I find strength in believing that He is in control of all things. Many times I do not understand but not understanding and feeling guilty or insecure in my faith is the one tool that ole Satan loves to use. Try reminding yourself and satan that your future is already spelled out for you and so is his! He is down to the wire and is throwing out all the stops to trap those who believe in Him and pull them away. It can't be done if you seek God and His Kingdom! Don't let these little seeds of doubt grow and fester inside you, they will only bring you feelings alot like what you have begun to feel. Feed the seeds of your faith, through prayer, meditating on Him and His word and surrending these fears to Him. He knows you can not take alot right now so don't concentrate on the what if's, they aren't even important. Concentrate on restoring your faith in Him. When you spend your time restoring your relationship with God it leaves satan very little power to destroy your relationship.

Hey KTF, depression is often associated with heart disease. Many many people with heart problems also feel depressed or joyless. Tell your doctor what you are feeling. Often, an adjustment to your meds can help.

So don't beat yourself up or feel like a bad Christian, it's probably an organic problem, not a faith problem.

The whole world runs counter to the Christian. He must walk against the crowds on his way to heaven. He must swim against current of cultural flows. He must climb up to see Gods will rather than descend to philosophical jargon. The Christian always looks another way, it cannot be but he is a walking paradox, dying that he might live and living to serve rather than be served. He must see the invisible, hear the inaudible, follow a path that is not visible to spirit dead men. He sings when he is in pain, crys when others laugh. If another man harms him he forgives and asks Gods mercy for him. If he lacks he still gives, if he has plenty he cares not for it. Whether we are abased we enjoy God, if we abound we enjoy God, we cannot love anything but Christ alone. We puzzle thinking men, we confound angry men and we put to flight strong and mighty devils that would rule nations.
How can one be such? By Christ living his life in them. We are seated with Christ in heavenly places, we know now nothing can touch us. Inside we are safe. Our bodies have been burned and tortured, our souls have been afflicted, yet Christ has us securely. Our weak grip upon our Lord has often slipped in trial and temptation but Christs power to hold on to us is omnipotent. He cannot lack wisdom when he guides us, he will not lack strength when we must go against the whole world to follow him. My lord Jesus is no weak god of mans making, he everlives to make intercession for me and all those who call upon his name. There is NO GOD BEFORE HIM. My heart breaks for him, I cannot express to you that if you feel weak and beggarly before this world as it pounds out its hammers upon your soul: please know that Christ is an anvil to all those hammers and will break them all. They will all fail, every attack every devise of Satan or this world will only prove to my blessing. God works all things together for good for those who are his called. Dont fear your weakness or your human frailties that cannot overcome this world, Christ has overcome this world be at peace. When Christ lives his life in you and through you it starts all over again, Christ living and overcoming Satan the world and the flesh, pleasing the Father and giving himself as a sacrifice for the salvation of the world. I will do the same thing with Christ in me. Praise my loving Lord Jesus.
