Guest abby6799 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 I have a couple of friends who were on a really good path with God and they were getting really strong in their relationship with him and then they started meeting boys and one started going to public school and now they've changed completely and just don't care about giving their heart away and they're straying away from God. As their friend I wanna help them but it's hard to do so when I've never experienced what they have and to help them through it. Any advice on what to do?

Always remember God has too. Now as xyluz said to pray for them, that is foremost. Pray that their eyes will be opened to see where their actions are leading them. Pray that God will help you to be a friend without coming over as condemning. Over time, your friends will see that you are a true friend who will help them & stand by them through life`s difficulties. Don`t carry the burden but trust that God has you in there to help & pray for them. God bless, Marilyn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are away from God it could be a temporary thing in order to fit in with others. If they hold a strong influence on you yet you will likely have to consider finding new friends. Expect the Lord to give you new encounters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
