Please Pray for me

[DavinMochrie]

Going through some bad stuff guys.

Was going good there with the Christianity stuff, but I let something derail me. As much as I thought I could take it, going to that church that loves money - kinda sent me away.

I just lost my job, My little bros been arrested for being a drug guy (dealing using and violence and theft), and I'm now dealing with the abuse from my parents in the past. Mother is Undiagnosed Borderline Personality disorder, She had me under abusive control up till 26, when I escaped from being her employee and moved away. Just now as a 32 yr old dealing with teh consequences of a lifetime of abuse.

I haven't been losing weight so that troubles me too.

Sorry, this is me reaching out.

Pagans and New Agers and Buddhists just spout a lot of stuff about doing it myself, but Christians seem to be good people.

I don't want this uncertainty of faith.

Hi there,

I'm so sorry you are having such a bad time. I will pray for you.

Please believe that God is with you during this time and pray with an open heart for guidance. Even though it may feel like He is not there, He is. You need God now more than ever, trust in Him. Faith does wain at some point for every Christian. (I've just got my faith back) Prayer and a Church with good fellowship brings it back.

My prayers are with you.

God bless

Hi Davin,

Going through some bad stuff guys.
Mate, when we walk the narrow path with our Lord Jesus Christ, we come up against a lot of bad stuff. It no simple walk, but a walk of faith, and a race of endurance.

Was going good there with the Christianity stuff, but I let something derail me.
When we refer to walking with our Lord Jesus Christ and obeying His Word as "Christianity Stuff", then it tells me that you haven't had any good ground and foundation in His Word by those in your church who should be responsible for you and your accountability.

As much as I thought I could take it, going to that church that loves money - kinda sent me away.
Ah, now I can see what you are talking about, you go to a church that berates their congregation for MONEY, is that correct?

Is your church a church that flogs Malachi 3 in regards to tithing?

That is old testament stuff, and isn't New Covenant stuff.

We give with a grateful heart, it's all about giving not getting up mickey mouse points.

I just lost my job, My little bros been arrested for being a drug guy (dealing using and violence and theft), and I'm now dealing with the abuse from my parents in the past. Mother is Undiagnosed Borderline Personality disorder, She had me under abusive control up till 26, when I escaped from being her employee and moved away. Just now as a 32 yr old dealing with teh consequences of a lifetime of abuse.
Mate, it is very obvious after all what you said that you need some good GOD-anointed Christian counselling, and a good foundation in His Word.

What church are you going to?

I haven't been losing weight so that troubles me too.
Mate, I can understand that, and it's obvious that you are stressed out and suffering from anxiety, and many other spiritual problems that you need to address.

When you came to our Lord Jesus Christ did a mature Christian take you under their arms for guiding and leading?

Sorry, this is me reaching out.
Keep reach Davin, and you can PM me if you wish.
Pagans and New Agers and Buddhists just spout a lot of stuff about doing it myself, but Christians seem to be good people.
About 80% of most Christians are struggling with many emotional, physical, and spiritual problems, mate. So don't thin you are alone.

Most Christians try their hardest to be good Christians, but just because they go to church it doesn't make them a Christian.

Most have good in them, but because of the pressures of the world, many cannot stand the heat and fall beside the wayside, and become half-hearted and lukewarm.

CHRIST-centredness and Active Lordship is the first fruit of any church, then Holy Communion each Sunday, then good fellowship and accountability, etc., etc.

I don't want this uncertainty of faith.
Read Hebrews 11:1, there is no uncertainity of faith, because faith is the only certain thing that will keep you walking the narrow path at all cost.

It's no easy picnic, and there are no quick-fixes to the many trials that face us day-by-day.

PM me Davin.

Love in CHrist

God loves you mate.... keep seeking him as for your bad experience don't base your faith on people because you will most likely be dissapointed. Look to Jesus, talk to him(Pray) and listen to what he has to say to you (he has spoken to us through the Bible.)

You know I really want to help, but I do know to pray.

I've had trouble keeping my weight under control too. It isn't easy, and it impacts my work. I so feel for you.

I'm so glad for MrFD's concrete response in prayer as well. I'll pray for you a new job too.

I know your Father cares about this too, so please let your heart out to Him. He's not going to punish you for how badly you feel right now. He sees. He knows what you're going through.

The good news is that I was only out of work one day.

I finished on the wednesday. I had two job interviews lined up for Friday. Had to ring the second guy and cancel because I had been offered a position!

Thank you all for your prayers and words of wisdom.

 

[SteadFastAlex]

Prime example of how our God cares about us, I think that the best thing to say here is thank god!

Praying for you as
All things are possible with Jesus
He will lead and guide us
Through the rought times!

I've posted this verse several times on here already, because it's been extremely uplifting to me since being saved:

20 So Jesus said to them, “Because of your unbelief; for assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you. 21 However, this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.”

All it takes is a mustard seed-sized faith. Focus on it, pray and fast, and God will take care of the rest.
