hi im new on here my name is louiseelis on this website, i just saw the forum prayers requests then i hesitated and thought why not just ask so here i am, i just wanna ask if anyone could pray for me its a really hard month its the anniversary of my dads death on the 28th of april he was my bestfreind and i know its gonna be a tough one as it will make it two years since he died, i would also be ever so grateful if you will pray that god leads me to the christian freinds he has for me.


I have forged an amazin freindship with a freind who is now miles away and i dont know what to do because she seems to brush me off its like the freinds around me are changing i thought maybe its me somethings wrong with me than i had to really stand on gods word cos the enemy was runnin riot with fillin my mind with lies about myself.

I just feel that no matter how real i keep it with freinds and no matter how much im there for them they seem to fade out and i look around me and question the people i have left so please pray that the enemys cruel tactics will be cut loose from me.

sos this is so long, i just dont know what to do about this freind its got so bad that when someone doesnt reply to a txt i send them and its been a day or two i start to frett and think its got to be me im just suppose to have pople that dont care around me and its never gonna change i feel like i will never meet people that stay, i get confused cos when i make freinds with peop[le if they want me to be im there for keeps ):

Hey...welcome to CC

I will pray for you, and I can kind of empathize with you on this. I've lost friends before, and it's not always easy--if it were easy we wouldn't consider it a loss when people walked out on us. The key is just not to get caught up in emotions and feelings, pray for the reconciliation of your friendship, if it is God's will, and do what you can to try and make things right. Maybe things don't present themselves right away in such a way that you could work for reconciliation, but be patient--God will allow things to happen when they need to.

well i lost a best freind and i know the trust is shattered there so we will never be freinds again, but like you said i guess it is up to god it was god that revealed her to me i found out she never really cared at all for me or love me like she said ): but i shouldnt have been that ignorant as one of my mates said ha: cos she was unsaved, i guess i should have known a lil bit.


As for the other freinds i could try although we are still freinds they just dont treat me like one i know it sounds like im being sorry for my self but im not, there has been many times where i have told myself give such and such the benifit of the doubt when i do that nothing gets resolved and when i try to resolve things they fob me off all in gods hands i guess i have to learn to let go in this particular area of my life it can be an unbelieveably lonely road to travel ):

Having trust shattered does not always mean that you can never be friends again--look to the example of St. Peter. He denied Christ three times, and when Christ was most in need. Yet we see Christ forgiving him and talking to him lovingly after the Resurrection. If your friend is not "saved," how do you know this? Can you read her soul? And if she is not, oughtn't you to try to show her the way to Christ, rather than abandoning her? Discord is what the devil sows to impede love, to impede our showing forth of the Gospel. St. Francis of Assisi is often quoted as saying "Preach the Gospel at all times. If necessary, use words." Our actions are the most effective way of showing forth Christ--he forgave even the worst of sinners, can you not forgive someone you once called friend?

hello and welcome. i am somewhat new also. i have prayed for you and though i am much older than you (43) i am going through some of the same things you talked about. first let me tell you how sorry i am for the passing of your dad. i know this is a difficult time for you. i too lost my dad a couple of years back. the thing that i really relate to is the friendship thing. i some times wonder too if it is just me. am i just too sensitive? but i never expect out of others anything that i would do for them. i treat others the way i wish i would be treated. you know it is hard to find a true friend but a true christian friend is really rare! i pray you find one! God has shown me in his word that sometimes we go through things we may not understand (like others not treating us right) so we can mature and grow. i just read in 1 peter 3:1-22 that we are not to repay evil with evil and that we are to live in harmony with one another. this is not always easy but i guess that is the growth part. God Bless!

First, I want to say welcome to CC. I understand about losing your dad. I lost my grandfather a couple years ago and I really miss him. We sang one of his favorite songs at church last night and I almost cried. I'll always miss him, but I know I'll see him again one day
