Jesu said I call you friends. If we are called friends of Jesus and we are, then we are never alone with out friends. Pray to God that the friendship of the Lord will become ever more real. I felt his presence many times. And remember this age is shortly finish. Then the Lord will be here with all the saints. You and all of us will be with him in the new age. Our hope must be on him and not this world. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Praying in Christ Jesus, that you are not feeling so alone today. In Christ Jesus Always 1tol3 Here's an interesting fact. I have in my email this post before you edited it because it's very long. It was fine you shouldn't have edited it. You sound like you are in the same boat as me. I know I'm not the only one but I have a 2nd cousin who doesn't know. This guy is 37 and his mother died a yr ago while his father died 4 yrs ago. He also lost a few Aunts & Uncles so he feels very alone. He's not a Christian and I don't know what he believes concerning God. He's probably quite confused. He seems to think that it's extremely rare to lose 4 or 5 people in a few yrs to death. However, I knew it isn't because this happened in my father's family back in the 1970's. Within 3 yrs we lost 4 of the members and 1 was my father. You do learn as you get older, at least I did. If I was younger, in better health, or still had a car, I'd be able to find a church within an hour ride, but I have none of those things. Maybe you don't neither. I just wanted to tell you that I appreciated what you shared with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in bad shape. You need to read more posts to get to know a person. Oh, I'm sorry, you appeared to be asking for help.

I misunderstood your intent. I know you wanted to help. As I said you're new here so you don't know me. Between my walking disability as well as not owning a car I can't go hardly any where. So even if you found a nice church online I wouldn't be able to get to it. The only church is I can get to is a Catholic one which isn't so bad, I went there a few times. I was raised Catholic but left when I was 18. IMO many Catholic people are just as godly as we are. Many love God and they obey Him in the way they were taught to. (this gets into whether or not God is a legalistic and I say no) However, my problem is when I go in a Catholic church and I see all those statues I don't believe they should be there. I guess this takes my mind off God and onto things the average Catholic doesn't even know about. I struggle with this because I know the important thing is a person's relationship with God not how the person expresses it. (I know also, that in OT times God treated the ancient people differently, He demanded they worship Him as He told them through Moses and the prophets. But times have changed and I think God is way above our little minds) Stick around Angelfishie and you'll get to know some of us. The apology wasn't necessary but it showed your heart, which is a good one. ☺️ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
