I'm having a battle with myself in my head. I feel as though I am in a very tough spot and I want a way out. I am the only Christian in my family therefore we do not attend church. I'm old enough to drive now so I can drive myself to chruch but it's hard to find the courage to go alone. I know I need to go and I'm longing for the fellowship in my heart. I haven't been the best Christian but lately I feel the tugging at my heart telling my to shape up and take hold of my life. If you could pray for me I would really appreciate it, I really want this to happen, I'm just a little scared about it all. Thank you!!

I was 12 years old when God gave me a new life to live in him. My father greatly disapproved of my decision for Christ and I found myself running off to a nearby church alone as well. Though I really was not alone for God was with me and he is with you as well. You will have so much fun and blessings in a bible believing church and there really is no reason for fear for we are your brothers and sisters in Christ, your family.
*Praying for you*

Peace

Father, give Kristi the desire, the will and the courage to get involved with a great church and let her participation draw her whole family toward Christ. Amen.

I prayed for you!

Be encouraged, God is with you!

I suggest finding a youth group where you can meet people. Go there every week, go on their trips, participate in their events. Soon after doing this, you will have tight relationships with belivers, and you will be plugged into a church. This will be a wonderful spot for you to be in. Hopefully they offer small groups so you can share whats going on in your life, and ideally get some accountability so that you stay on the narrow road.

Saying a prayer for you. Be brave, be bold, and don't give up.

Hey kristie. I tell you i was once like that too because my family aren't believers except ym brother and even he's still growing in Christ. Nothing much shining from him yet.

Anyway i was uncomfortable too. Sometimes i wouldn't want to go because they'd be asking me stuff which i can't answer and they'll do something to stop me from going. But really, if you do enjoy being with God, you wouldn't give a nut cracker abotu who says what to you.

Just force yourself a few times and after that you'll be fine. Becase once you get there, you won't regret it .

Dear God i pray for Kristie that you can bring courage to her to burst that big bubble in her house that prevents her from coming to church to interact. I pray You can give her a good friend to bond with so that she can simply walk through that bubble. Hmm, i'm not sure if that sounded right but i'm sure You know what i mean.

Praying for you kristi24! Let us know how you are doing so we can continue to encourage you! I agree with the others, sometimes you just gotta take that first, huge, scary step. Then when you get there, you will be so glad you did. Maybe it is just the fear of the unknown right now. But once you start, it won't be unknown right now. and for you!

Don't be scared, Kristi. Simply ask Him for help. If your prayer is righteous, and I have no doubt in my mind it is, He will make it come true. I speak from personal experience. I have been born again for only a few months, but since then, many miracles have happened to me.

The Old saying "If there is a Will.. there is a Way!" comes to mine here.. The Lord has lead you this far.. he will lead the rest of the way. Lean on him for Guidence.

Will Be Praying for you

I have found a church that I'm interested in and I think that one day during the week I'm going to go there and talk with the youth minister so I can see what it's all about. Thank you for the prays, I really appreciate it!

sorry i didn't see this 'til now. i feel like i've missed out on some praying. i guess that means i 'll have to pray twice as hard for ya.

i hope everything works out for you at the church you found. and i pray that god will bring the right people into your life who will help you along life's path. i will also ask god to grant you the necessary amount of courage that you need to "take hold of your life."

have a brave heart, kristi.

your friend,
