Are you a member of the Church yet? If so, then dont allow yourself to be in the shadows. Make your wishes to help be known. State them to whoever will listen and soon enough you will be given the chance. Better yet, volunteer to do things at any functions the Church might have. Getting put into...

Keep your prayers and focus turned to God at all times and he will guide you in all things. I notice that you do not mention if you have ever sought out counseling for the rape, so I would like to suggest that you do so immediately. The desensitization that you have experienced will only...

Terene, Thank you so much for your words of wisdom. There is no doubt in my mind that they are from the Holy Father himself. I spoke with my Pastor about this recent event and he pointed out some things that I have to bear witness to. He pointed out that in order for this new BF of hers to...

I wanted to update those who responded here with how things have gone since I made my original post. Since making this post, my friend has gone through 2 different relationships with men and is now currently with number 3. We have spoken almost everyday at work and I have avoided focusing on...

I too was prideful in my early days after becoming saved. The devil does not want us to be saved, so after becoming Christians we get an even larger target painted on our backs and his whispers and influence become much more pronounced as a result. Do not let your view of Pride get tainted by...

I bolded the last sentence of your reply in order to preface a response and to also pose a question around a recent issue we had at my Church. A couple of years ago we had a situation at my Church where the younger Christians were bringing cell phones out during worship and actively texting...

Thanks for the reply Bella! I'm currently dealing with a young lady who I care deeply about as a Christian and a good friend. I posted about her recently due to my concern about her open and free lifestyle with having multiple men into her home around her two beautiful, yet very young and...

Hi all! Myself and some fellow Christians had an interesting discussion at work, on an extended break the other night, and I was surprised at some of the opinions that arose during the course of the discussion. The discussion centered around how, as Christians, we are to set our own boundaries...

Thank you for your comment! I'm leary of putting myself into a position of trying to determine whether or not she had an actual soul saving moment with her re-dedication. As a friend I feel more comfortable being supportive and giving her the love that I feel she needs as a sister in Christ...

Thank you for your comment. Let me be clear about this - I'm almost twice her age and this is a strictly platonic friendship. The trust that her and I have for each other is solid and has developed over the past two years of knowing each other. In short, I have no doubt that God smiles when he...

Thank you for such a lovely prayer! She has been in Church all of her life. Between myself and her mother, we have both been instrumental in keeping her as grounded in her faith as is possible without being demanding. She has severe self esteem issues, which causes her to be very open with her...

Thank you so much for your comment. The last sentence of your comment is what is the most difficult part of this for me as a Christian. Striking a balance between caring for someone as a Christian, and caring for them as a friend in todays world is becoming increasingly difficult. I'm a...

About 2 years ago I met a wonderful woman where I work. A few weeks before Christmas of '09 she approached me with tears in her eyes and told me that her ex-husband wasnt paying his child support and that she was not going to be able to give her two girls(ages 7 and 4) any gifts for Christmas...
