My best friend was born and brought up in a christian family. She is 29 now and in her life, she has suffered a lot..believe me, when i say she has been through immense torment, be it physical, financial or emotional..more of emotional..

it will take me hours to type abt the story of her life but all i can say is that..she has been through a lot!!...i am a born again christian and i often try to motivate her to start believing in God..and i do pray to God to bless her with the gift of faith...she does pray (sometimes)..but never finds solace..

she often wonders, why people always spit on your face though you love them and wish their wellbeing. Bad and wicked people progress and succeed in life.... Even your biological parents want to kill you.... You may live life earnestly and honestly but still all you get is pain and hurt..WHY??

i say to her that..God will help us after we repent for our sins, recieve the gift of salvation and accept him as our personal savour..but she says..HE helps the wicked too??..what if one says; "why not do bad, who cares about going to hell after this life..when life now is living hell..cant get any worse in hell.."

i have often prayed to God to bless her with peace and wisdom..and give her a chance to grow her faith in You..but my this prayer never gets answered..this girl was so frustrated that she tried to commit suicide since her childhood days but always failed..now she has given up on that idea..and all is left of her is a girl with void inside out..just living life coz she has to take care of her mother..

Can anyone help me, as to how i can provide support and guidance to her..also how should i pray to God and get an answer for her..plz help, asap guys..

God Bless..

All I can really tell you is that you just need to be sure to bring Jesus up every possible time that you can. Pray and ask God to use you and to be able to share the knowledge of Jesus with her again. Ask God to open her heart continually. Don't ever get dissuaded - you have to be persistent in prayer. God does not work in a "right this second answering"- as I'm sure you know.



I'll begin praying for your friend as well. Please realize that I will actually take up this request. It will not be something I just say over the internet. Have faith yourself. God can make anything happen. Even the people who do not seem even close to salvation can be turned to it in an instant.

I'll pray for your friend and I wish her the best.


Your brother in Christ,
Tyler
 
God isnt here to remove our problems,
so that we can live without fear and suffering.
Jesus said: are you ready to suffering for my name?

"Those also who render evil for good, They are my adversaries, because i follow what is good." Psalm 38:20
"Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify god on this behalf." 1 Peter 4:16
we must be pursued, because we can destroy the evil, because the evil is threatened.
otherwise we havent discovered the allmighty God.

we are here on earth to show, how much Jesus us worth is.

"For this is thankworthy, if a man for conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully" 1 Peter 2:19
tell her, that she honours God with every second of pain and torment!

God doesnt let she die,
because she is important. really important.

God is fair
he will distribute us the deserved wage in heaven

pray for the best, even if it means more pain.


ill pray for her also
may be God with you

Dear Jesuscares
Providing your friend has not totally closed herself off from help, you can pray
that God would send HIS LOVE into her heart to break down the barriers and
let HIM into her life to show her all the answers she needs and that she would
accept the answers and turn her life over to Jesus no matter what she has
gone thru or seen in this life.

Sincerely, LIZABE
 
speaking to a friend who in an unbeliever...

JesusCares...your name says it all. Jesus cares for all of His children. Sometimes through the troubles we having in this life, the suffering that is caused by sin, we have a hard time seeing and/or hearing from Him.
I have a little different opinion than the one I just read about bringing Jesus up every time you speak to your friend - that may just cause an opposite reaction. One thing I have learned is that I cannot change anyone - but I can love them and lead them to Christ who can change their hearts.
It sounds like your friend has a ton of pain in her heart. There is a song I haven't heard lately - but it talks about "love them like Jesus, carry them to Him". If we can remember that we are not the healers here, we are just the messengers, and Christ in God is the healer.
Scripture is full of Gods promises of healing and peace to those that love Him. I will be glad to share scripture with you if you are interested but for now just know this - your prayers will be answered. God hears everything you are saying to Him, He hears your hearts desire even if you cannot put into words what you are trying to say or ask for. Trust in Him to have your and her best interest at heart. Trust in Him to love you more than you could ever be loved and trust in Him to love her more than she could ever be loved. Pray for her, don't stop - pray all the time - pray for her heart and for her soul and for her to feel the love of God through His son Jesus Christ.
I will be praying for you and for her as well.
God is faithful - He does answer prayers - but those answers come in His time - not ours.
Be blessed - and remember - your prayers are answered so don't stop.

My friend, we should never be surprised when a lost wold acts like a lost world. All those who seem to succeed while livng an ungodly lifestyle have gotten their reward and without Christ their future is beyond bleak.
As believers we know our reward is twofold:
The first part is we get to have an intimate realtionship with God now and know He is with us no matter what we must walk through in life. Remember Jesus promise that the same world who hated Him will hate us.
Secondly, this world is not our home. What people do in this life only serves to reveal their choice of where and how they will spend their eternal life. No my friend, we as believers know that what we do in this life is an offering of love to place at the feet of our Lord.
Let us learn to make Jesus the center of all we do and as we abide in the Vine the very life of God will flow in and through all we touch. When others come at us in anger we will see them as Jesus does- lost souls in darkness and bondage. Such spiritual sight allows us to react with love and compassion instead of hurt and anger. That is after all the nature of the indwelling Holy Spirit of God is it not?
I will be praying for you both.
Many blessings in Jesus wonderful Name,
your brother Larry.
 
Heavenly Father,

I lift this sister in Christ and her lost friend up to you. I pray that you will soften her friend's heart that she may find some glimmer of hope in her pain, and realize that that deliverance is only one prayer away.

In Jesus' name, Amen
