Please pray for me. I am feeling so broken right now....some healing needed in my family..I hate this situation...I hate the excuses, I hate avoiding people...I feel this heavy weight and emptiness...I just hate it right now. I can feel things breaking and it is painful.

If anyone could lend me a listening ear or maybe some advice, just message me...I am not posting it here...

praying for you

you can pm me if you feel comfortable doing that
 
Biological families are very difficult... even if they claim Christ...it seems all their "Christian behavior" is reserved for strangers and friends.
And those who don't behave poorly towards you are trying to take advantage of you.

And everyone is trying to change you (by browbeating) even though they don't know you or how you live your life.

And others behave foolishly... like continued alcoholic beverage consumption while having liver problems...

Just know...you have a true Christian family that cares for you in spirit and truth.
 
I will pray for you. You also expressed my situation to a T, so I hear ya sister.

I don't know if this will resonate with you, but here is what the Lord is revealing to me. Time is winding down and we are getting ready for our eternal family. I have poured my heart out and given my all to family and it just never is good enough. They don't receive it because they are looking for something other than what I know love to be. Just be you and sit at the Lord's feet. Luke 10:41-42
 
Praying for you and your family. Matthew 10:32-40 came to mind reading your post. I too am available to lend an ear as I am only a PM away.

Matthew 10:32 Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven. 33 But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven. 34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. 35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. 36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household. 37 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. 38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me. 39 He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it. 40 He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.

Well I know you know who Albus Dumbledore is, you probably just meant that you wouldn't have noticed. For those of you who don't know this is when he said it. I always tear up when Amos Diggory finds his son was killed. :crying That and when Cedric tells Harry to go take his body back to his father. Dang nappit! The whole entire end of the movie is so freaking sad! :sad



Oh yeah and my bad it's come from different places not lands.

hi. sorry to wait to jump in. I've admired your faith since you first started posting here. i thought about pm-ing, but I think...the ladies are probably better for this one. and yet...

hand your broken-ness to The Lord. He loves a contrite heart and broken spirit, if you come to Him with as much humility and honest, bare need as you can...

in my experience, He honors that, big time. :)
 
Hi Luminous Rose, I am so sorry to hear the things going on in your life. I also do not want to come across as Jobs friends. Please know everything I say is with the love of Christ and if it does not come out right its all my fault. When I have been in a position that sounds like yours with all the despair and hopelessness I had a friend tell me I was unequally yoked with the Lord and it would be a miracle not to be under the pressure these things bring to bear on us.…

I also had someone point out that with this horrific situation and how difficult it becomes to walk with Christ as we hoped we would I recognized myself in your word hate. I didn't write mine down but I had written it all over my heart. I found I was the prisoner in all this and to free myself I needed to free others without ignoring the wrong. For me the passage that speaks to me everyday how I wish I was to everyone, especially other drivers. When I was younger I journal a few years. I found those journals a few months ago and reread what I had wrote. Some was good, some a waste of time and ink and other stuff made me wince. You are not alone in the path you are called to walk and Hebrews 12 tells us the Lord walks it every step of the way with us. Plus you have a whole bunch of u praying for you. God bless.

7The end of all things is near. Therefore be clear-minded and sober, so that you can pray. 8Above all, love one another deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. 9Show hospitality to one another without complaining.…
