I can't take it anymore

[rockymountainman]

My life sucks and I can't take it anymore. Does God really care for just one person like me who has done sooooo much wrong that the world hates???

At my mid life and am no better than I was at birth. And I have prayed to no avail.

God cares. Sometimes we can't see or feel it for other things that
are in our lives, but God does care. Prayers can be answered in
ways we don't understand or want to accept. There's alot of
good folks here that can answer questions, but you may want to
seek guidance from some real live spiritual counsel. Not trying to
chase you off or dismiss, just don't want you to give up hope.

God bless,

absolutely He does. I don't know what you are going through so I don't want to make any generic statements, but I do know that God does love you and promised that He has a plan for us all. You sound like you are going through a really tough time, but don't make any haste decisions about things. If you need someone to talk to about this or anytihng i know you don't know me but PM if you need to talk more personally.

rockymountainman,

Yes, God does care for just one person, because he cares about all of us. Jesus died for all of our sins, so that whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.... what this means is that He did not die for certain sins, one or two sins, or only the not so really bad sins, but ALL our sins.... thatWHOSOEVER ..... not certain people, not just the really good people, and not just the people who only sin a little, not just one person , or a few, but everyonewho would Truthfully believe in their heart. If you honestly believe, and trust in Jesus, then He knows your situation. There may be some things in your life that YOU have to take responsibility for that only you can stop them, but He is faithful to give you His strength to break these bonds that you are under. Other things which you may be praying for, if they are within His will for your life, will come in His time not yours or Ours. We have to believe in His timing for our lives, and trust that we will not abandon Jesus, when we don't get things done our way in our time. Your faith sometimes comes in the way of a long wait for His answer to prayer, to show our faithfulness to Him.

I pray that you will not lose sight of the One Who is Our Salvation. In Him we can be forgiven and redeemed. He will forgive you, but you must believe, and in your life follow Him Faithfully. I hope you can endure and see the future He has for you, if you trust in Him.

God Bless

I would yet pray for this fellow . . .Many is the truth said in jest, "for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh".

I too think ED is searching for something. If he reads this I hope he finds a church of Christ near him. and talks to them about God!

Or maybe he will find a Baptist, or Presbyterian, or Catholic church and talk to them about God.

You're all wrong. He's independent. He's in a league of his own.
