    i'm not really sure a poetry site forum is the best place for this sort of thing. best thing you can do is try to confide in religious friends or any friends to get over your problems or even see a chaplin or religious counselor. i'm not really that religious so i hope i kinda helped.

    just praying doesnt necessarily work...

    you have to want whatever ur praying for in your heart...and dont just think to yourself "oh i really want this so that God will answer my prayer for me".....you have to honest to God want it in your heart to happen....

    things take time...

    trust me.....i KNOW God will help you....He answered my prayers...maybe not right then or the next day or even a week later....it takes time....

    just be patient.....God knows what Hes doing....

    This is my personal advice i think it has to do with first if your ready to focus on God. You have to want to in your mind first and just remeber what God tells in his word to keep your eyes on him and not to turn to your left or right. That means to go by his word. Not to do what you think you should only what he says in the bible. And we will not fall.

    Ok , first of all...your pastor should ALWAYS be there to help you through.
    Secondly, if you are faithful to God, He will be faithful to you. He answers prayers in His time... not when we think it's best, but when He KNOWS it's best.
    Another thing is the Bible says cast ALL your cares on Him. This means give Him your worries, your anger, your problems period. Leave them with Him. Meaning you have faith in Him to take care of you and your worries. Once you leave them with Him, you never pick them back up. If you are angry with someone and you leave that with Him, but you are still carring around the same anger for that person, then you didn't really leave it with Him in the first place. You have to have faith in Him. Believe that what you ask in His name WILL be done.
    CB is right... God knows what He's doing. Trust Him.
    you may want to read some books on faith.
    Derek Prince is really good.
    or try some websites.

    I'd say explore faith and religion as a world wide subject..look at as many different faiths as possible, look at their history, and well as where they are heading for their future.

    And try and make it personal, take kindly the counsel of others, but remember that you are your own authority...neve stop listening to that little coice in your soul....that is God more than a book.

    I totally agree. Your relationship with God should be VERY personal. He's your best friend.

    i posted this on your other thread, but just in case you dont see it:

    just sit down either with a bible or just with your thoughts. just sit and tell him your problems and he'll listen. listen for that little voice in the back of your mind telling you everything will be okay and that he's here for you. its just like having a normal relationship except that he will never leave or abandon you no matter what. just talk to him when you need it and he will provide all the comfort you need.
