I try to help everyone. I've learned from past mistakes . I feel I stand alone most of the time in everything I do. God is all I have. I feel like my family bullies me. I cry everyday. I pray and been having alone time with God. The harder I try the more I feel lost. Why do I feel like the one losing?

Maybe the issue is you are trying to hard? What I mean by that is, maybe some of your efforts are misplaced in that they are not God's will, but your own will and what you have determined to be the right thing to do? Sometimes the best thing to do is pray and be still, make sure you are doing what God wants as opposed to what you want. God bless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You show up their sin just by being nice and they don't like that. We have expressions like "go against the flow" which meant to swim up stream when all the rest are going down stream. In fact, Jesus said it would be better for the people who cause a young Cristian to fall if should have a millstone tied around there neck. SO they taunt you, or lie about you ---it doen't help 'the the pain right now to know God will reward you in heaven. It just hurts. So we weep with you. By the way, only God can change them. He will change their hearts. So keep praying for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes we forget that it is God who works in people's lives and hearts, and it is He alone who saves. Sometimes we take it all on our shoulders and, when we don't see results, we feel like we've failed. God only asks us to follow Him and be His witnesses; leave the changing of lives and hearts to Him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am 44 years old. I won't give up. The closer I get to God the more alone I feel. I know he is with me. I have to be patient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand what you mean, sometimes it isn't easy to be different than others, but the reward will be worth the trials of this life.
