when i was little my faith was strong despite everything going on in my life i clung to my beliefs in hopes that God would still love me inspite of everything as i have gotten older i seem to have lost my way i feel like there is no way that God could ever forgive me much less want me i am not sure where i adopted this thought that has taken hold of my but for those of you that might want to could you pray that i might find my way back to God .... it is so dark without him......

Ginnie we can look together if you like.....l too am very lost.....sat in dark places.....feeling unworthy of His love or forgiveness........but most of all have prayer blocked by dark and evil thoughts intruding......

l wish you vision and hearing so that we may see and hear in the daily things that we do.....that He is there with us....................................

in my thoughts and prayers hunny

Actually both of you are in my prayers daily, and will continue to be. Though it doesn't seem like it, God really is with you. I know it seems dark and I don't have any answer to why, but you really are being held in the arms of God. I wish peace and joy for you both.

Amen to that, Can't!

Both you ladies are in my prayers. Sassy, you know that, Hon.

God is there with you although there are forces that would make you think otherwise.

ginniesky and sassy,

i was 18 years old before someone helped me see that God does love me and for a long time that loving relationship with Him has been the source of help and healing that has done the most good in my life and recovery. the God i worship openly forgives over and over - no matter how often or how badly i mess up God forgives me and never throws it in my face that i have messed up. there is no greater power in all the universe than the love of God.

i can honestly say i have been exposed to undiluted evil. i've witnessed things too depraved and horrifying to repeat and yet God's love keeps rescuing me from my past. God keeps healing me and giving me new life in place of old misery.

God never plays favorites; He freely loves anyone who will receive His love. it is there for the asking. please don't let any feelings of guilt or shame keep you away from the love of God.

Ginniesky,

You will be in my thoughts for sure. I have gone through this same feeling. The only real advice I can give is what has soothed me- when I start to feel disconnected from god, I try to spend some extra time outdoors. Winter is upon us but even when the weather isn't great outside, I like to be outside because I can experience god showing me the truth of things through nature. It reminds me that creation's beautiful gifts surround us daily, it reminds me that god's presence and love is always around for everyone, and it reminds me that everything in life is a cycle, and things won't always be so dreary. I am sure you will get through this soon.

-E
Thanks for this!
