  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Confused And All Alone!!!

I'm very confused and feel so alone, my boyfriend that i thought was going to marry me just got engaged to someone else 2months ago. i'm at a breaking point and i have attempted suicide but thank God i didn't die. he says he didn't understand me for 2 and a half years and decided he understood a person he just met. i don't blame him for what he did because right now i'm starting to feel the emptiness inside me. i have a Pastor thats praying for me almost everyday at my house but then today i felt like giving up because i'm thinking maybe i'm just doing it because he left me. i'm not doing it because i really want a relationship with God. Part of me feels strongly about restoring my faith in Jesus but a huge part of me is just pulling me back. some one please help i really need deliverance before i find myself in my grave and going to hell.:groupray:

infact this makes me even loose more faith, i emailed Pastor Chris 2weeks ago for advise and council in my dilemma and he sent me those emails they forward to everyone they just change your name. its so crushing if you thought a man of God would take hi time and pray for you and even reply you on a personal note. maybe thats the same thing that happens here people just tell you they will pray for you and thats it. i'm praying for myself too but it might not be too efficient because i'm very bitter. Pastors are supposed to take their time and deal with their sheep thats lost not to follow the sheep thats already in the way. i need Prayers please!!!!

Weather you come back to God because your life has Gone down the tube, or because its great and you just wanted to. God is happy to see you again. He's there for us when we suffer, so don't feel guilty about that.

What your boyfriend did was trechorous. Becoming enguaged to someone only after a couple months is just asking for big trouble. If you are feeling very very depressed, take this time to better yourself. Maybe work out at a gym, or start some hobbies. Look for a better job, or get a make-over. When I'm absolutly gloomy I try to improve myself or my surroundings. Sometimes just makeing my place really clean makes me feel better. It will help you be more confident about things anyhow.

I hope you do ok and I'm praying for you,

BEN

Dear MandyDM, My dear girl you are not alone, You Bring Tears to my eyes, I am sorry you have been treated in this way, firstly by the man you hoped to marry, But let me say this he is not whom God has chosen for you, or he would not have done this sort of thing, when you meet that man your heart will tell you, this is him at last, and to try to take your own life, my dear Please Please from the core of my being I say do not, do not, you are very precious to Jesus, do you know that, you are a Child of Almighty God, a Princess, chosen by Him before the world was, do not take away what he has given you, Life itself, with free will to choose Him, or to choose
the enemy of God the devil, I know you are hurting But you can only lift your head up and say I choose you lord Jesus, Help me.
And he will, please believe that, he is right beside you just hold out your hand and ask, and I pray Holy Father I come before your Throne of Grace and Mercy, and I pray to you through the Mighty all Powerful Name of Jesus of Nazareth, and I ask in His Name, for your Comfort and reassurance for this young hurting girl, that you are
Almighty God, and she is your Daughter, and you love her so much that you gave your only Son, that she might live with you in heaven forever, I ask for your Holy Spirit, to show this young lady your Love, then she will know that you are God, and that she is loved,
As for your Pastor, my dear they deligate to others work that has to be done in the Church, he may not even know you telephoned, I am sure that He is Praying for you as He said, put it down to a mistake Pastors are very busy men, so do not be to hard on him, and again when people say they Pray they mean it, I am hear writing to you because I have to Pray for others, to Pray, to Pray, unless I do, I cannot rest, the heartfelt cry of Pray will not let me rest, so do not think we do not Pray.
My Dear I hope this helps, May God let you know His Will for your life,
and may He Bless you Mightly.
Elshevia.

Father,
Right now I lift up Mandy to you and I ask you to protect her from herself. Do not let her harm herself in ANY way, shape, or form. Help her to realize that she is one of your children and that you love her very much. Let her know that your promise is to never leave or forsake her. I also ask that you would heal her broken heart. Often when we look at our broken hearts all we see is the pieces that it is shattered into at the time. All we see is the hurt and the pain. Help her to see that you have some one else for her that will be far better than the one she had. Take all the hurt and all the pain, Father, and replace it with your love, your peace, and your joy. Lift this dark cloud of depression from her and surround her with your cloud of glory that it may be a comfort for her...in Jesus name...Amen

Mandy, please know that you are not alone even though you feel that way. God is with you and you are in my thoughts and prayers. I am here if you need to talk and there are other parts of this board that may be able to help you right now. I am going to put those links in here for you so you don't have to go looking for them:

Hi Mandy,

I will pray for you. I feel just like you do; today my son left home to go live at a group home for teen age boys. Now I am all alone, and yes I am feeling suicidal too. I feel like my son Justin was my whole life, and now he's gone, and I have nothing. But I am praying that my son and I will be restored back together better than ever. I don't know what will happen but I will pray for you, cause I feel ditched like you.

Hi and I am so sorry to hear about your situation. Right now just lean on God... this may sound redundant but things happen for a reason and believe it or not, this will pass. There is change in your life but that is how we grow. I know how uncomfortable it can be sometimes, but when you walk through it and face it you come out on the other side stronger. It sucks now, but God never allows anything to happen that we are not able to handle with Him next to us. Don't let Satan keep you from devolpeing in to that person that God wants you to be and you are stronger than Satan. There were some things that I was angry with God over because I didn't like the change or loss of people in my life and now looking back on it, I am so glad it happened and that God carried me through those rough times. When we are too weak to go on, let God carry you. And trust that he has a bigger and better plan for you. PM me anytime and my prayers are with you

Dear Mandy, I sure hope you return here to read all of these loving prayers and posts with great advice. One thing that really helps me when people don't react the way I would expect or want them to react is this...Life is 10% what happens to you, but 90% how you react to it. Your ex is moving on with someone else way too soon. I doubt if that new relationship will work out, but if it does, then he was not the right one for you anyway. As far as the Pastor goes, you will never know if indeed you got the same old response with a different name typed in so why worry about it. Focus on your blessings no matter how hard you have to dig to find them. Here is one for you. God lead you here to this site and that means he is already helping you. I have had more prayers answered by joining this site than I can even list. We are all here for you and God is the one who joined us. That is pretty powerful in itself! I have learned that no matter how hard it is you must forgive those who have done wrong to you wether they ask for it or not. You are not forgiving them for their sake but for God's sake. He forgives us and asks us to do the same. Don't let your anger or unforgiveness block your prayers. It is not worth it. I will pray for you.

Heavenly Father, I give you praise and thanks for joining us in prayer for it means you are already working on our circumstances. In Jesus name I pray that THY perfect will is done for Mandy. Give her comfort, peace and guidance so that this trial will soon be a distant memory that she can look back on and she how it only made her stronger and closer to you. I know that all things work out for your good and that you know better than we do what is best, so I thank you for your perfect will and timing and for leading her here in prayer. All glory and honor are yours, Amen!!

Mandy, please know that there are better days ahead even though you maybe can't quite see that at the moment. At the moment your heart breaks for this man and you feel betrayed and abandoned. Please know that you will move on from this hurt. I am not saying that you won't have a scar upon your heart from this, but you can move on.

What this man has done feels terrible to you and you can't see how life will ever not hurt, but one day, even though you don't believe it now, you will thank God that you had such a lucky escape and that you didn't end up with this man. Any man who promises commitment to one woman and then just a little while later proposes to another is not the kind of sincere and loving man that a woman needs.

I am praying for you.
