Answer #1

(((hugs))) God bless you…

Jesus loves you so very much… and he is on your side…

He is not against you.. he is for you…

He will receive you with open arms…

All he wants from us, is to love him, and grow strong in him.

He has your best interest at heart…

And will always love you, no matter what you do.

Your price is paid.. in full…

All you have to do, is to walk in it…

Shake off what hinders you, and step up…

Into his marvelous light… and love.

I will be praying that God will bring a good friend across your path, that will help you, and lead you to the right fellowship…

Know that you are very precious to the Kingdom of God…

I will pray for you, or encourage you anytime, just send me a funmail…

And the same goes for you…Redguy…

God bless you both…

Take heart. You are not the only one who has strayed from God. God didn’t send His Son to Condemn us, but to save us. Lean on that. I agree that you should find friends who are Christians and on the good path. It is important to have those around you who can help you in your walk.

Know that He loves you, no matter how low you go, or how far away. Lean on Him. Ask others for prayer in seriousness and they will do it. Ask your friends, your pastor, or fun mail some of us here. I know I and probably a few others have already added you to the growing list of those we pray for.

Another good thing is to start praying for others yourself. If your focus is on helping the children of God, how can you focus on the demons that pull you down. Find a volunteer position if you want to help others very much. It does most good to yourself in the end I think, because you begin to understand how others feel and are better able to meet their needs.

Find a good Christian radio station like K-Love and listen to it as constantly as you can. Its positive and encouraging. There is tons of music to keep you constantly in a state of praise and thankfulness, as well as verses and topics of discussion to make you think.

Make your bible your favorite book. There is romance, history, drama, lectures, and many other types of genre. There is so much in there that is logical for everyday use today. Every story tells something. Each parable has a meaning. Each part of the history is your history! It truly is the best book ever written.

Make an effort to distance yourself from those who may bring you back down into that spiral. They will not be doing it necessarily to hurt you, but the temptation can get to be too much. My husband says if he hangs out with his old buddies, all they want to do is drink.

Just remember, you are a child of God, and no matter how far you have strayed, you’ve come back now and that means you are HIS!

Fun mail me if you have any other questions or need more advise or just someone to talk to and pray with.

Hoping this helped!

Answer #3

Do you even know why, Biblically, Jesus was crucified?

Here’s a hint: It had something to do with breaking one of the 10 Commandments.

So if Jesus didn’t treat them as absolute, why should you?

Answer #4

I have already done so I prayed his prayer again because I relised I was not a christian I was doing all the rong things but I get what your saying …just keep praying and try your best not to stray from him

Answer #5

Everyone has strayed and I have found that I always ask Jesus to guide me. The most important is getting with friends that know Jesus, pray, attend a good church and most of all know that He loves you. I will pray for your guidance and know that Jesus is the only way!

Answer #6

Yeah, we’re not perfect, we all make mistakes, like the prodigal son, he took his inhertence away, spent it all, and ended up working by feeding pigs, but he returns to his father’s house and begs his father to at least let him be his servant, but His Father forgives him and gives him a royal robe. maybe read your Bible more, or if you don’t go to church or youth group maybe give it a try.I’ll pray 4 u.

Answer #7

First off …start by asking for forgiveness and also forgive yourself. We all stray sometimes. If you are struggling in a certain area you can talk to a trusted friend or mentor…maybe the church. Sometimes we need someone to keep us on track and be accountable to. It really helps to talk to someone…we are not lone rangers. You are a child of God and you are blessed and highly favoured…Be Blessed

Answer #8

I think that if you’re having such a hard time keeping your faith, then maybe your heart really isn’t in it and that’s okay. No one says that you ‘have’ to believe in a God. I think that if you just believe in yourself, that’s the main thing. You know that there are other options and that if you live your life being a good person and Do unto others as you would have them do unto you, then you should be alright.

Peace, Carol

Answer #11

your journey through life is about making mistakes, wrong decisions etc. and learning from them. every single person on earth screws up every now and then. what counts is if you learn from your mistakes. try to be decent, honest, kind, trustworthy and so on. try to be the best that you can.

Answer #12

Christians aren’t perfect by any means, we’re human and thus will fall short - but remember, when we ask, He is: faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness - our sins are remembered no more - I would suggest you find a Praise-filled, on fire, pointing to Jesus, church - Praise Him daily - and read His word - then your batteries will stay charged and you grow in your walk ! - keep on your heart the verse below and Romans 8 : 28 - really helps me…Take care !!

“If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.” 1 John 1:8-10
