Hello, my name is Simone and I was born in Lebanon but my family moved to Israel in year 2000 when I was really young. When we moved to Israel was when my mom found a church for believers who came from Lebanon and joined it. I grew up with other Lebanese kids that moved to Israel too and they were my friends during the time i was at school but only one of them was a believer; she and i went to the same church. Now with time i got closer to her and slowly stopped being as close to the other as i used to be and, because i am shy, i didnt really make any new friends. My only friend, and my best friend, was the one i go to church with. the others always love to gossip and make fun of other people and their conversations are stupid and the things that they find important to them are sort of shallow things. year 2012 was the year i fully accepted Jesus as my savior (my final decision) and started kind of drifting away into a new world without them.
but now, after finishing school, i dont see my bestfriend anymore. She's the kind of person who agrees to meet up maybe one every two weeks and for like two hours. I love her but i stopped enjoying her friendship.... but i began feeling really really lonely. I want friends who are also believer; i know israel is full of believers but most of them live far away and my church doesnt really meet with other churches often or have any young people in it except me and my sisters (it's a very small and new church). I know a few believers who are my age but they live so far away that i dont really get to be their friend and so far it feels like no other young believer guy or girl that i did get to meet really connected with me.
I prayed about it, but never wanted to ask for prayer, because i feel like it's a stupid subject and that i am the one who isnt doing anything about this. but eventually we all have to accept the fact that if we dont ask God to make the change, nothing is really going to get better.
I dont like being alone even though i've kind of been alone for a long time. My job was keeping me busy but now i am about to finish and feeling lonely again bothers me.
