I'm going through alot from possible eviction,health issues and a break up. My heart is so thoroughly broken. Why would God bring someone who is everything I wanted but knows I'm not ready. I'd rather God wait yrs to bring the guy instead of show me and it's not time. I feel heartbroken and upset about everything. I'm anxious..and nervous. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is when the rubber meets the road and things get oh so very tough that one's heart comes to knowledge of things that God has known all along. Sometimes our guardian angel has a tough job protection us from our own conclusions about most things, including people that we think we know, but don't. Sorry you are undergoing a hard time along with a difficult lesson. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Years can turn into decades waiting for such a tandem, may even help to see through setbacks, if it's salvable.

Just let go and place every burden of life upon Jesus. Immerse yourself in the teachings and application of those teachings. Being a Christian you know that obedience should lead to mental submission and therefore agreement with Jesus Christ, the head of the Church. Believe, apply and live the teachings and your mental state will improve and by so doing you will learn trust of Him in the process. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe some day you become friends or get the harvest in together. Corrie ten Boom was seeing a guy and she thought they would get married, but one day he came with his new fiancee. She was not rich enough for his mother. She went to her room and was laying on her bed crying. Her dad said: You can kill the love, but then a part of you dies. Or you can give it to God and ask Him to turn it into His Love. She said that enabled her to later love the unlovable, like traitors and Nazi's.

If everyone in this world seems to be abandoning you, he is the one that will stay with you. Jesus is my saviour, and my best friend. Hebrews 13:5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather God wait yrs to bring the guy instead of show me and it's not time. I feel heartbroken and upset about everything. I'm anxious..and nervous. I understand that you are anxious and nervous. I, myself, have depression and anxiety. I know exactly what that feels like. I know what it's like to be afraid and alone and afraid BECAUSE you are alone. I get it!! Truly!! Here's what I don't understand. You've been here for six years. Never have you posted a problem that you did not blame God for. Without fail. It's always God's fault. I get the crappy life. Mine is pretty much crappy. It would never dawn on me to lay the blame at God's feet and declare that I couldn't trust him. Unless a Godly and Christian man wishes to marry you without sex before marriage - a man is the last thing that you need. Your primary concern until a Godly man marries you is those two babies. You never speak of them. You only speak of your misery. And blame God for it. When He alone can help you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just vent about the things that distress me. My kids are healthy, happy and well.. still I just don't know how to trust God. I know blaming is bad but if I'm trying and doing the best I can and need a little extra help from God and help doesn't come it just creates that cycle of distrust. What keeps you from not blaming God? I'm genuinely wondering bc I do have an issue with this only bc God is capable. If he couldn't do everything then I would understand.

Also what does that mean turn it into his love. Edited February 18 by Figure of eighty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
