whats wrong?

[Jo1]

well everyone here i am again! where are all my friends? dont seem to get any phone calls these days, part from sale ones. cant remember the last time somebody asked if they could come and see me, im not talking about coming because of things to do with church, but coming to see me, because they wanted to spend time with me. yes i belong to a church, but wouldnt it be wonderful if it was like the days in Acts where everybody was going in and out to each others houses. but its not like that. me and my other half live quite an isolated exsistence. yes we go to church meetings and groups but part from that there is NOTHING.. we do try with people.Sorry i know im writing this to get attention again, please pray for us, ive had enough today.love you guys so much xx

i will pray for you! I sure hope things turn around for you both. I know how it is not to have really anyone to really spend time with.

+God Bless+

This might sound like a stupid suggestion but why don't you try inviting someone over yourself. If they come and have a nice time even if it is just for coffe or something like that then they are more likly to want to spend more time with you. It is hard but sometimes we have to put alot of effort into something before we get anything back if you know what I mean...

I was about to suggest the same thing. I know it can be an effort, but keep it simple and you will probably enjoy it.

I can feel very isolated too and I have to do things like this when I feel I can cope with it.

Please let us know how you get on.

Blessings

"My heart is not proud, O Lord, my eyes are not haughty; I do not concern myself with great matters or things too wonderous for me. I have stilled & quieted my soul; like a weaned child with its mother, like a weaned child is my soul within me" (Psalm 131:1,2)

I find that when I find contentment in Jesus, I am happy whether I am with people or without. When I do not find contentment in Jesus, it doesn't matter how many people I am with.

It has been my experience that longing for the company of another is a sign that I have lost company with God through the Holy Spirit.

I will pray that you find the cause of your discontent.

Maybe you all could invite another couple from your church out to each after church. My wife use to do that all the time at the last church we were at. She would call the other couple and set up a lunch with them after church a few days ahead of time.
Or just plan something with another couple. I know we don't do that enough either.
