[Faith-talk] updates on my current living situation

Wed Mar 2 18:23:36 UTC 2016

Right on Andrew, many people are so desperate to feel a connection with
somebody that they will often abandon the real people who care about them to
seek out any kind of affection that they can get. No parent is perfect, but
once you become a parent you do find out how much love it took to raise you
and all of the sacrifices that had to be made to take care of you and then
you see how important a parents claims on you are. The connection and
attention that we all desire on the deepest level can only come from God. I
have found out that broken people without peace in their lives will
typically find somebody else who is in the same boat and then instead of
having one miserable struggling person they have multiplied all of the
misery, brokenness and baggage by two. Once that cycle starts in somebody's
life it is hard to choose a different path and healthy relationships, we
need to find ourselves desperate for God and not somebody to make us feel
loved because they will fail every time and then we will be left like a
scared baby in a crib all alone still rejecting the hands of our heavenly
father.

thanks papa bear the thing is this some might consider the bible old
fationed and stuff but  God never changes so there fore i feel he never
changes his word to us.  I was through a situation with a girl not long ago
and stuff actually. The thing was this She wanted me to live with her in the
worst way yet I let her talk about it for a while and let things  go for a
while but basically I just p ut an end to the relationship december.
She wanted to sleep with me in a hotel my parents said  i was with the young
adult group that night but during friday she got nasty with my parents in
fact. The thing is this she  had said allot of lies my dad called her
parents.  The thing is this I found out what she was really like under the
surface the truth of the matter  is this if you were to meet her she would
seem nice but  the thing is this she was very  very clingy and stuff like
that.  she did not even talk to her parents about me.  I not sure is if your
family is truly that bad or not but maybe your mom or dad have a reason
behind what they say to you and stuff like that.  you need to seek advice
from bible beliving christians. what you need to do is you can only serve tw
you can't serve two masters you either serve god or the devil.  Marriage i
know it may not always seem that way but marriage should bring families
together and things  when you mary a boy friend or girl friend you mary the
family. Family is very important.  The family is is the Godly way.  our
families may not be perfect  but  we need to respect our parents and respect
our alders that means respect those who are older than we are.  we need to
the bible says to honor your parents.
