So I haven't been on much the past year/year and a half. I've had a massive amount of personal issues. The past few weeks I've been trying to distance myself from all the trouble, so GAW has been a great source of community for me. I don't post much, but I read and feel like you guys are my friends and telling me the latest I've missed out on. But it seems no matter how much I try to move on from my issues, they follow me. I found out my partner of 10 years was cheating on me for the last 2 that I was with him, and so I packed up and moved to another state. I found someone else I thought cared about me but that didn't work out so well either. I'm pretty much getting it from all angles. Financial problems too and I have a 4 year old daughter. I seemed to have made just a giant mess of my life, and no matter where I turn, I can't seem to fix it. I've been praying to God with my whole heart for months. Crying out to Him with tears in my heart and running down my face, and I get no answers. I'm really trying to stay strong for my little girl and strong in Him and I try to turn to Him but I seem to just be going in the same nauseating circle with no end.
Any prayers at all you guys can throw my way would be greatly appreciated. I am also aware that there are people on this board with bigger problems than mine, and in no way am I trying to downplay that or make out that my problems are more important. So please pray for them first, and if you have time please try to remember me. I just feel so alone and helpless.
God bless you all, frens. WWG1WGA
you are an π
Just doing what it takes to feel better myself: gratuitously making an unknown person feel better. I had it in me to begin with but seeing how other great Friends interact that inspired me. u/Mary911 βs answer to you gave me the chills.ππ»π Find some friends in need and just give them warmth and consideration, I guarantee you will be muck better. And, as you told, you are a young Mum. Maybes, not so far Frens know you will find the right Husband-Friend-Confident-Dad to make you a lucky Mom and your daughter some happy siblings. I pray this happens to you, LQdy.ππ»ππ€
So sweet your words are. I'm almost 38 so I don't know if I'll be able to have any more kids sadly. I would love to have more, but that's up to God I suppose. It also depends on how long/if ever I find someone. There go the tears again.....
Young LQdy, donβt cry unless if itβs of joy. Just take a walk with your daughter in the woods (unless youβre living in a big town), enjoy Godβs nature on this Day of rest. Find a used copy of Marcus Aurelius, and read it one note a day at bedtime, maybe discuss it with your little ewe of God, and any accept whatever comes to you as an experience and an opportunity, not a judgement. You have one mission in this life: to better yourself for the best. Be the exemplary person you search around. You will do it.ππ»π
solid advice. thank you, fren β€οΈ
Did you mean to send this to me. I think you wanted to send this reply to NewbieQbie.
No, I meant to send it to our your LQdy Fren in need. But I wanted you to know that I recommend people to get in touch with you.π€π
Thanks for believing in me and recommending me. I will be visiting Freeman Chapel Church today. It looks relatively small and on the edge of town. They start at 10:00 so I will have to leave earlier today. Who knows...this could be the one. I want George to feel at home and encouraged about it too. So we'll see. God bless.
