    Why doesn’t God heal me?

    I feel bad asking this because you probably shouldn’t question God but I’ve been struggling for a few years now with various problems and I never get any better. It started with one particular problem that tormented me mentally and caused a chain of other problems. It has in itself shaped my...

    How to not be lonely

    I am quite a lonely person and I’m very shy in general. I find it hard to speak to people for the first time and so there’s many people I see everyday who I’ve never spoken too - is this odd or normal? I still have a couple of friends from when I was at school but I hardly see them anymore since...

    Prayer Request

    Hey people. I have a prayer request. For a very long time I've been asking God for a partner. I've been single my whole life and I get really lonely sometimes. I'm not asking for advice (please don't say, "well just go on a dating site or go hang out here or there". It's not that simple). I...

    Lost my attraction to women and now very depressed and sad

    When I was 16 it seemed that overnight my attraction to women dramatically reduced. I am now 20 and I am still struggling with this and have become very depressed. I find it very hard to get on with other people as I hate myself and get negative thoughts about myself all the time. All I want is...

    Will someone pray for me?

    I need an answer from the Lord. I know this sounds like a cliche prayer request, but I honestly need it. It's been emotionally exhausting for me. Basically, I need to know if I'm going to get married one day or if the Lord wants me to stay single my whole life. And if I am to get married, I...

    Suicidal because of loneliness.

    [deeply sorry for being negative] I can’t stand being so lonely anymore :( I hate my life so much and because of that I am starting to hate God. If there is God. I am struggling with living and believing. (edit) I don’t want to live like this anymore. I’m at a point I have to force myself to...

    Grieving husband. How do I support him, handle the loneliness, and not resent his mother?

    Recently(February '18) my Father-in-law passed away in a terrible unexpected way. Just 3 months prior to this, his mother (our grandmother) passed away at age - 91. She lived with my husband's parents since his birth. My mother-in-law is a terrible controlling and manipulative person. When we...

    Dropped Off

    Mohembo leaned over and kissed his wife goodbye before he got out of the car, took his suitcase out of the trunk and walked into the international departures terminal at the airport. Parking was a headache and an expensive one at that. She would drive straight back home, stopping only at the...

    New year, old problems

    I'm feeling quite despairing at the moment of ever finding a life partner or even a fulfilling social life and career. I've registered on a dating site where my messages to men whose profiles I like never get returned. All I ever say is I like the look of their profile or it seems we've some...

    It's all such a struggle

    At the moment I'm finding it so hard to believe in myself, things getting better or anyone being there for me. For many years I've struggled with loneliness, anxiety and financial problems. I've not had nearly such a good career as I could have done after my degree. My latest job's probation...

    Warning, I'm just gonna throw up here on the interent, sorry. Thats pretty much it, just sad and lonely again. No good reason as usual either. No friends to hang out with and no prospective spouse are some instigators. Found this site like anyone else these days. Typed my situation into...

    When It Feels Like No One Is Listening...

    Does it ever feel like you're just talking to your ceiling? Even though I know God is always there, sometimes it's as if he isn't listening to me. Or he's just looking down on me, unresponsive. Sometimes his silence is infuriating; why does he leave me when I'm in so much pain? It's a hard...

    Seeking Christian Wife but Doesn't Exist?

    Hi all, I'm new to this forum and need advice, suggestions, just anything at this point. I'm not OK at all. The hole in my heart has become catastrophic and prayer does nothing. I've been darkening in my mind like most existentialists and my soul has become sick. I do not feel love, only...

    The Back Room

    Due to my hearing problems I have to sit in our church's cryroom during service (we have a room in the back that has a window and a speaker so that people can bring their crying children in there to calm them down without disrupting the service and still watch and hear the service) and I do so...

    Forgiving my husband's past..

    We have been married for five years. He just recently came to me and told me that he cheated on me when we were dating. The person he cheated with is someone we have seen at multiple events and even gone to dinner with since being married. He would rake me over the coals if I even talked to...
