:groupray:God loves us, He doesnt want us to go through terrible things, but when we do, He is nearby and will comfort, shelter and strengthen us as we weather the storm.

God is love. God is kind, patient, merciful and He is sad that you are suffering, but hopes that your focus will turn to Him, and that your heart will do the same.

You can be honest with God, express your anger, frustration and disbelief. He is a Big God, and He can take it. I remember when I was your age, and I had alot of talking to do at God..lol.

God is there with you now, He will be there tomorrow. and even Forever. So, dont worry about Him not caring or being ignorant of your circumstances. He loves you. He wants you to trust in Him. His ways are above our ways. He fashioned the Heavens and the Earth. He is Omnipotent and All Powerful, Has always been and will always be. I believe our wisdom and understanding will never be a match to His...no matter how you reason about life. ..the Creator is Always greater than the created. He is a just God. In Heaven He may make up for the pain and suffering many have had to face here on this earth. ..and many have suffered much worse than you or me...although at times we probably doubt that..
God's love and blessings to you today. Hoping He is giving you more strength and comfort as the Holy Spirit is called The Comforter, The Counselor. God is able, just let Him in your situation and your present and your future.
I didnt say it is easy to believe, trust, love and follow a God we dont always completely understand. But then again, I dont believe it was easy for Gods One and Only Son, to leave the comforts of Heaven, with the Divine Purpose to come to this Earth to die for every one of my sins, and yours. Gods power is His awesome love and mercy for us, and His desire to clear us by the Blood of Jesus of All of our sins, so we can live in a ETernal Paradise with a Holy, Loving and Merciful God. God has given us the answer to Eternal blessings, joys, and Paradise. This world and its troubles are fleeting. Seventy years as compared to Eternity (forever and never ending) is but a tiny speck of time. We must collect ourselves, our worries, our pain and struggles and burdens and recognize Gods One and Only Son, has died a horrid , shameful death on a Cross, the Cross reserved for those cursed by God. God has given us everything we need, through this one man, Jesus Christ, Our Redeemer, and Our Savior.

:crossrc:Britina, do your best to pray and focus on the man who gives you Eternal life in Paradise. Christ Jesus, and thank Him for His Blood that washes away any and every sin you ever have commited. Jesus has all power and authority and those who believe He has died and risen from the dead, will also be risen from the dead after they have died. We are not on our way to death, but to Eternal Paradise, and these fleeting years that we spend here, will be watched and remembered by the God who gave us this life. He will see what we will think about Him, and how our heart will look towards Him. He isnt interested in mans outward appearance, but on the inside, on the heart, thoughts , feelings and that is His concern for you and for me. Not what house we live in, or the size of our bank account, or our education or strength. But how do we think about our lives, the gift given to us by God. How do we think about Him. Do we love Him? Are we hard hearted? Are we loving? If we love Him, we obey His commands. If we obey Him, we will live forever with Him. We are a part of Gods family.

:wave:Well, its quite late , almost midnite Sunday and Monday morning starts nice and early. All three kiddos are off to school, so I must get an early start.

Lord, please help my friend Britina, she is coming here in her pain and distress. She needs comfort, and support and strength. God we are just trying to help and counsel her, although Im sure the HOly Spirit can do a much better job than I. Lord. bring her comfort today by the Holy Spirit and bring her more hope and love for You, despite her circumstances. Help her love and lean on You. and to speak to You and cry out to You about her problems and concerns , and anger . God help her draw closer to You, so You can be closer to her. Amen. Please hear this prayer. Glory be to God for His Goodness , kindness , mercy and His gift of Our Lord and SAvior, Jesus Christ. Amen.

britina,
i am in the same boat as you are. Difference is now i do not have a house. My daughter that is going to college is with me. I lost everything. My business. LAst week for the first time in my life we did not eat for a day to save. Over the weekend we had to take a bus to go to a relative just so we can sleep. I had to get my daughter's cell to pay for the bus trip ( her only remaining property) . Am i mad yes i guess you can say i am. But i have learned that my circumstance may be difficult but i sincerly believe that He is there. I too know the feeling of the silence of God. But we hold on coz after all that is what faith is all about.

Do not lose hope. Learn from it and embrace God's plan for your life. I too am hopeful even though right now as i write this i do not even know where we will sleep tonight. God bless you and wjatever you feel just talk to your folks and grandma about it. let it out. that is what my daughter and i did over the weekend. Remember Consider the lilies.

Father God, reveal Your love and mercy and show this one that You love her and that You do answer prayer, sometimes later, and sometimes not the exact way we expect but that You are with her and You do answer. Reveal Yourself to her LORD, In Jesus Name, Amen

Britina,
I'm praying for you and your family.

God never left you even when you gave into your desires. He is always there. Even when you do not feel him, you need to have faith. You have chose who and where your going. Your desires are you chioce, not Gods. You always have chioce on what you do in life. Know that!~
God, didn't do this to you. Don't blame him for the chioces made, there were other options weren't there?

We all go thru trials in our life, it's how we weather them that matters. I know it seems like there is no hope. In my life there were several times I felt that way, but God not me ,but God saw me thru those times. You need to have faith not give up on your trials. If you give up who wins? Not you, not your grandparents, you know as well as I do that the devil love to do this. You know this is not Gods will for your life. This is a trail to see where you are at with the Lord.

Prayer:
Father, I come to you to pray for the Grandparents of this young lady that you will Guide them thru this time. Father, also I pray your blanket of love and protection surround them. Father also in need of prayer is there Grandaughter, Britina. Father, I pray for her that she will come to you Lord and build a relationship with you Lord. I pray when she feels like doing fleshly things you will guide her towards the correct direction in her life. I pray for your complete guidence in her life Lord.
I pray that this families burdens be lifted at this time and give them to you Lord.
Thank you Lord.
Amen

Father we pray for Your Holy Spirit to enter this matter and meet all needs. We know nothing is impossible for You and we pray for Your divine intervention. As Your children we know to expect a miracle. It is in Jesus Beloved, Holy, Gentle and Mighty Name we pray.
Amen

you state you barely believe in god then state you do everything which is against him,ie dont pray,read the bible,go to church and comitt sexual sins then when things turn bad you cry" why do you treat me thus"

is this ringing any bells?........barely full christians ever get their wishes granted.......look im not being hard on you i swear,i wouldnt with a woman in difficulties,GOD likes nothing better than a penitant heart reaching out for him whatever the reason but you gotta meet him halfway?......least you came here so that implies you do have belief despite your thoughts to the contrary,whats the old biblical saying "faith as small as a mustard seed" means even the smallest of faith can move mountains

hope i dont sound mean to you,im just outlining what i think your not seeing

Prays to the lord of all hosts for this woman and her families financial situation,that according to his will he may help them out of this difficulty,i also pray for this woman who has openly confessed her faults that she may be free from her guilt of commiting sin and that he above imparts a spark of revival concerning fellowship with him,AMEN
