I officially hate God

[LoyalToGod]

first He allowed me to be bullied in school, then He blesses my enemies, and He blesses those who insult me. Second, He won't help me with my love issues. Now I came out as a bisexual. I'M ANGRY WITH YOU, GOD!!!!

Anger and hate are different. It's important to note the difference there. An encouragement might be that the Psalms are filled with laments. They are filled with prayers which the person praying is very angry with God. Check out Psalms 13 and 22. Read those Psalms and see how it is not only okay to be angry with God, but it is very Biblical to pray to Him in anger and tell Him what is on your heart. That's how healing can begin.

Hi LoyalToGod. God is not against you. When we measure our lives against everything around us we see ourselves as little. This is not how we should live. Despite all the noise in the world our we should not worry about it because if we do we will have our focus on whats going on elsewhere and forgetting to live.

I want to share these short sermon clips with you.

while I appreciate your advice, it sounds easier said than done. You don't know what it's like to be hurt, then have the salt rubbed in your mental wounds when you see your enemies prospering...

Actually I do. My worst high school bully who is 2 years younger than me is already married with a child. I'm nowhere even close as prosperous as those who have done me wrong. But the more we give thought to our past the more it will control our present and future. There is no good harvest from the bad memories of our past. What matters is right now despite what has happened to you.

Dear Loyal,
Regarding your first point; like you, I know what it is like to be bullied in school. I was tormented by a group of girls back in the late '70's when there were no anti-bullying organizations or laws to protect me. And like you, it seemed to me that my enemies were being blessed instead of punished by God for what they had done. That was more than 30 years ago, and this is what I have learned:

Dealing with difficult people tests our faith in God and puts our witness on display. When David was a teenager, he encountered a bully named Goliath. Goliath was a 9-feet, 9-inches tall giant Philistine warrior who had terrorized the entire Israelite army. David was probably about 14 years old which means he hadn't even grown any real whiskers yet. But David shouted to Goliath, "All those here will know that it is not by sword or spear that the Lord saves; for the battle is the Lord's, and he will give all of you into our hands." (1 Samuel 17:47).

Turning to God when we're attacked or bullied gives us understanding, patience, and most of all, courage. Some suggest taking a deep breath or counting to ten, but the real answer is saying a quick prayer.

Dealing with bullies also tests our witness as people are watching. We can lose our temper, or we can respond in love. David succeeded because he turned to God for direction.

David had many faults - broke every commandment, yet he was the only person in the Bible God called "a man after my own heart." (Acts 13:22) because David depended completely on God to direct his life, including dealing with difficult people.

We cannot control difficult people and we cannot change them, but with God's guidance we can understand them better and find a way to cope with them.

Regarding your second point:
God wants to help you with your love issues; however, He must be your first true love. Until you have made Jesus more important to you than any thing or any one, don't expect much help in that department.

Regarding your last point:
You say "now I came out as a bisexual". That is a decision you are making - not God. He gives you the freedom to be whatever you choose; bisexual, gay, straight, a nun or a murderer. Regardless of your choices, He loves you and wants desperately to be the love of your life.

Can you imagine being in love with someone who says they are in love with you but only speaks to you for a few minutes each day? Or maybe only speaks to you for a few minutes each week? How long would your relationship last? How good would that relationship be? God is a person, too. He has feelings. He longs to be near you. He longs to answer your prayers and to bless you openly for the world to see. But you only get out what you put into some relationships.

If I were you - and I WAS you - I would listen to wisdom and experience when they say, "Love God with all your heart, mind, soul and strength, and love others the way you want to be loved; even your enemies."

Be blessed sister girl.

thank you very much, casey, and I'm very sorry if I came off as defensive, and thank you very much, singpeace, I think you must be my guardian angel. I'll go and forgive those who hurt me, then repent to God, then praise Him

I can relate to your feelings about being bullied. From the time I was about 5 to about 13 I was bullied pretty much everyday.
the thing I will mention is don't confuse temporary worldly blessing with the blessings of God. Some people who are condemned and going to hell are being blessed now with temporary things, but once they die they will experience an eternity in hell. Like the parable of the rich man and Lazarus that Jesus tells.
While your blessings, are eternal and not something that can fade away or be corrupted or destroyed in any way. Theirs is temporary, yours are eternal.
