I am really alone. I know God is with me. I keep trusting Him. There are so many scoffers and pharasees. I wish I had a chrisitan buddy. Seems like no one is out there. No one cares. People say that I should "step up to the plate". Sorry. I am not changing who I am for someone elses problem to communicate. If you are a true christian, it should not be so hard to see who is and who isn't your bro/sis in Christ. I see Christ in some of the people here. Sometimes I think people don't really KNOW Him and have a true relationship. I wish they did. And not only a relationship with Jesus, but with each other. God says it is IMPOSSIBLE to love Him if you don't even love your brothers and sisters. So why don't we do it? I talked to this one guy, I thought Jesus had led me to. Maybe He did for a reason I might not understand. But I really thought this guy was a genuine christian who recognized me as his sister. That is very special, because no matter how much the world can pat you on the back and give you everything worldy, its all a lie and it will all fade. But Jesus love and life is eternal and that is truly a gift, especially when old broken things are restored because of Him and brought back together, i.e. relationships, people, family, friends...you name it. Its a true blessing to me to see someone who is christian, even if they are not perfect, but just that they are in Him, who greets me and I them. Because it is eternal in the state of recognizing one another. It is NOT LIKE THE WORLD. It is from GOD. It is real and it is valuable. It is the only thing that matters. As christians, we can not only go astray, but be a prodigal son. Last night I was really hurt. I thought Jesus led me to someone who I could talk to, being accepted for who I am. Working on problems in my life, with only Jesus being my guide!! But this guy said the worlds approval comes first!!! And Jesus second. Except the only difference is, He said, oh yea Jesus first...but kept talking about I should stop worrying so much about what Jesus thinks, He is simple and I need to just worry about getting into school, changing my goals, doing this, doing that, coming out of my "shell" just hurry up and change. And ya know what? It's no WONDER I haven't changed? Look at me...yea I am too worried about Jesus. That is basically what He said. I really thought who I met was a genuine Christian. But now I feel decieved. I hope if he is christian, he straightens out those wrong heretical ways he was telling me about. I hope that if he doesn't know Jesus, he will soon. Please pray for his eternal state, that he may have eternal life. Please pray for me, that I can find someone who knows Jesus, that is willing to just put Jesus first. we aren't perfect..but im just tired of being looked down on as not enough. Jesus is the only one who truly accepts me. I just wish His people would too.

Annahay, first I would just like to say I'm sorry to hear about how things have been for you. Secondly, don't worry about what others think. Only worry about what the Lord says, as only He can judge you. Only He can help you, only He alone, can do all things. Keep your faith in Him, trust Him, seek Him, cast all your cares upon Him. Always put Him first no matter what, and as far as changing...well...don't change or settle for what the world/society wants you to, or what they think,say, and feel you should be. To be socially accepted by people you'll more than likely NEVER even meet in person, why bother? Even if it's those around you, no, don't worry about that. However, if God says change something, then yes listen to Him. Be willing to allow Him to break,shape, and mold you. There's some very awesome, on fire, for God, true Christians on this site. You have to sort out whom is and isn't best for you to talk with, and just because they may not agree on certain things, doesn't mean they aren't real. As for the guy who was saying the world first, well I most certainly won't and can't judge, therefore, I shall not. However, sounds like to me, that person is a carnal type. They have their eyes and heart and things focused on the world, not upon the Lord. Pray for them, as I shall do. I will aslo keep you in prayer, and anytime you need to talk, need prayer, need someone to just listen, anything at all, I'm here for you. Lastly I would just like to say, some may not respond to issues, as they're not sure or able to if they don't personally understand. Sometimes, it's just the fact they have many things going on themself, and sometimes it's both. Either way, don't give up, we're all in the same boat in life. The waves get rough at times, but Jesus can and will calm the storm if we simply believe and remain faithful. God bless you, I'll be praying.

Quick note, I forgot to mention, there's ALWAYS a reason for God leading two people together. Maybe it's to help you realize, ''hey, I'm so thankful that God has helped me to keep my eyes on Him, not the world, as some do'' or something less, something more, only He knows. However, there is a reason, that's the key point. Also, rememberthis, everything we go through in life, we learn and grow from it. Our faith grows, we mature in Christ, and so much more, the most important things in life, in our walk and relationship with Christ, and our brothers/sisters in Him.

You just kee praying for that special friend, who has the same heart as you, who loves the Lord like you do, who can relate to you, who can be your true friend. If I wrote down how many times I thought God led someone into my life, and it ended up in a disaster, I could write a book. Or how often I felt totally alone. BUT, you are NEVER alone,. He walks with you, He talks with you, HE, the Lord Jesus IS YOUR FRIEND! Talk to Him, as if He is right there beside you, as if HE is your best friend, cause He is. You will hear Hin talk back, the more you talk to Him. Speak to Him about all things. He cares about every feeling you are having. He cares when you feel alone, or betrayed, or disappointed. Remember what HIS friends did to HIM???? Life is not easy, but HE promises to be by our side. Read Psalms 23, over and over. Let it sink in. Remember, too, that the word says we are strangers here on this planet, and people will often view us that way. You can never be too much into serving the Lord, Never. Others will see the difference in you, and this will be used bu God to minister to others. You watch. Stay steadfast. Don't be tossed to and frow by a human's words. Only what God says about you, , is the truth. And you never know what imipact you may have even made on this guy. But again, you are NEVER alone. I talk to Him all the time, about everything, because he is right there, and He hears, and He wants to be first and your best friend. He will bring you the right friends. I promise. Kat
