My second year as a Christian has been turbulent to say the least.
I got a job, then lost it. I got a promotion and short circuited. I failed at that big time.
I fell in love with a man who turned out to be using me to clean his house for free and the little bit of money I was making. I feel like a fool.
The worst, most devastating thing, though, is I found out the people who helped me find my way to Jesus have been spreading gossip and lies about me. They disapprove of some of the choices I've made. One of those choices was to try to rebuild my relationship with my mother whom they have condemned as an "unrepentant" sinner. They've talked so much about me that I am now being shunned by the other Apostolics in the area. People I have worshipped with now don't see me when we cross paths in the store. It's so bad, the preacher who baptized me, looked right through the day before Thanksgiving when my car broke down, and I was stranded 20 miles from home.
I'm starting to question everything, and I feel myself losing hope. Please pray for me.
