welcome to cc, there's a limit to the powers of a chatroom, but there's always some power to be found.
How you find some good answers ^^

Hi Colin =] In answer to your question why God won't free you, I have been there. I know what its like to have suffering. But I want to share with you a lesson I learned from my own experiences. God gives us trials in our life to make us stronger. At the time, we feel weak and frail, but that's when we have to remember that he is strong for us. Paul had a problem like this to, did you know? And he prayed and prayed and prayed for God to take it away. God simply told him "My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness" (2 Cor 12:9). Paul goes on to say that he understands "When I am weak, then I am strong" (verse 10). God knows your problems and only does what is best for you. I have an illness, too. And it hurts, all the time. But the only thing that can comfort me is to know that my life is an unfinished painting. While its being made, its a mess and it seems like nothing will turn out. But when you see the finished image, it is far more beautiful than you can imagine =]

HI Colin. You sound a lot better than I was once. God gives us what we seek, to HE who seeks and believes, they receive.

REMEMBER.. Nothing is Impossible for God. What if I said you can actually receive a piece of the REAL heaven now, within you, and that was the ENTIRE purpose of all CREATION... to be ONE with GOD, Christ and Heaven WHILE you walk here, as Adam was. God is your Father brother, read the link below, its my testimony or one of them, God bless you my brother.. and remember, JESUS IS THE LIVING WATER.
