One of the reasons why I was going to leave was because I didn't feel like I fit in here...sometimes I feel as though no one even knows I'm here. I know part of it is my fault because I am so quiet. That is something that God has been working with me on... believe it or not I'm even quieter in person ...a lot of that is because I have been hurt so so much especially by Christians (online and off). I know that God doesn't give us a spirit of fear...but it is soooo hard to step out when I'm afraid of being put down again. ...okay now that I've rambled ...I just want to say please bear with me as I try to get brave enough to come out of my shell a little more. dont worry... just be you... and do and say what you feel right... i think your great... we share a passion for grandmas id sure be sad to see you go... so if you struggle to find a reason to stay... stay for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am glad to see you are not leaving..I only came here a little over a month ago and I talk all the time..I can tell by the way some people respond that they don't really care for me or my opinions and other things I believe about our relationships with the Lord but it does not matter.. What matters is that some people do like to hear from me, and some people do get good out of what God leads me to say and I have learned so much from the people here, that is what matters..besides most of these people here you will never meet face to face..we are sounding boards, students, and teachers to one another and that's part of what fellowship is.. I understand your desire to run away from this place, I too have had those same feelings but God wants me here so I stay.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
