ok...so i have given my life to Christ and i know that He is in control. why do i still feel lonley..i am surrounded by good christian friends, but on the inside, i feel so alone. i dont know what to do. every once in a while, i still have thoughts of suicide and thoughts of cutting away at my wrist. i know that is not what God wants for me and i know He loves me. i dont know how to trust people and it is starting to take its toll on me. so please pray for me and pray that God will reveal His saving light to me once again and help me to get out of the hole that I am in.

Hey Liz4Jesus, I can relate a lot to how you feel. Sometimes I am plagued my loneliness to the point where I don't even feel like Christ is with me...but he is, always. All I can advise you to do is tell someone you trust. A pastor, friend, family member...tell them that you're hurting and they'll try to help you. I know it isn't easy to let anyone know, believe me. I have had an eating disorder for four years, and came to Christ only last December, but the ED is still there sometimes even stronger than ever. I told my pastor, sort of, he doesn't know specifically what I am fighting, but I know he is praying for me. Ask God to give you an opportunity to tell someone you trust. Make sure you get into the Word, so you can read about how much God loves you, it really is comforting.

Lord, please help Liz see your love in her life every single day, and let her be comforted by your love. Please bring people into her life that can help her deal with her current situation. Let her know how much you care for her God because she loves you and this is holding her back from giving all she has for your glory. Thank you God for your continued guidance in all of our lives.

Have u been baptised with full water immersion?
I ask this coz some dont think u have to be and some think you dont have to be baptised at all.
Even still after that it takes time to get better but atleast you have the Holy Spirit to guide and comfort you.

Liz4Jesus,

I TOTALLY understand how you feel. I'm a Spirit-filled Christian, have been for quite some time now, and I still struggle with depression and loneliness. What I do though is either A.) I write a prayer to Jesus about why I'm feeling the way I'm feeling, or B.) Talk to my youth Pastor about my issues and how I'm feeling and we usually pray together and everythings all better, or C.) I read the Word of God, especially the Psalms because they give me hope to go on and not dwell on my emotions just dwell on Jesus.
