Hey to you all, I don't have this feeling all the time, but when I do get this lonely feeling in my gut, it is very heart wrenching. I am married, and disabled. I have always been a loner, and have had several online friends at one time, but through the years they have moved on away from the internet. I have one friend online and we chat quite a bit during the day. When my wife is at work is the toughest time for me. She is a nurse and works nights. I do go to a mental health support group on Tuesday and Thursdays during the day. But I still have to deal with this loneliness and dont know why? I have joined many social sites in search of friendships but they are just few and far between these days. If you have any words of encouragment or advice, please feel free to comment on this. If you want to add me as a friend, by all means I will humbly accept any request. Richard

Thought i would post a update: Last week my wife told me she wanted to go to church Sunday at the aog church. I told her i had been praying and I wanted to go back. So we went Sunday. Everyone shook our hand and got some hugs too, even the pastor was glad to see us, it was a good service too. This is nothing other than a miracle in my book! I plan us to be going back and being regulars again. There were a couple of people who didnt come shake our hand, but I pray tht we will gain the ground we lost, and move forward. Thank you all so much for your encouraging words and your prayers as well. Richard

When i got married in 2010 I was hoping it would be easier for me to go to church going with somone. I had some bad experiences with churches when i was divorced/single and have been in and out of churches. We joined a baptist church when we first got married, but my heart is really in the charasmatic church, even if i have had numermous setbacks in that denomination, i thought i would go back to my baptist roots-i grew up in a southern baptist church. About a year ago we quit the baptist church and got involved in the assembly of God church. My wife was really liking it as first. But then the pastor did something she didnt agree with. He winded up calling her and she gave him a piece of her mind, Lets just say we will not be going back there. Now we are in church limbo going no where. IM starting to feel distant from God i guess when i went to church it was better. I guess we expect too much from other christians especially church leaders. I wanted it to be a l joint decision with us going. Now she wants to go back to baptist church we just havent took that step yet. Please keep this situation in your prayers. I know we need to be in church. I want to be where the Holy Spirit is moving and active. Im not saying he doesnt move in the baptist church. Thanks for reading this.
