far from him . . .

[jesusismypeace]

Hi everyone,
I havent been online for a very long time and i decided to tell everyone what I'm going through at the moment.

For some those who dont know the story from the beginning here it is:
Last year in April Immigration took my dad and that really effected me and my family. When that happened i felt lonely like God wasent there and it was His fault that my dad was in jail when He was the one who called him to live in Charlotte, North Carolina. So i felt like i needed more love and i went out with the first guy that asked me out . . . yea i regret that to this day! well i was left heart broken and I'm still suffering from the pain . . .

So after i left from Charlotte and came to Colombia i felt even worse! I was missing my family & friends :[ I wud cry A LOT at night, i really didnt know what to do. And Ive been struggling with God since then. I dont know why all this had to happen, i feel like hes not by my side and i really need him . . .

Can anyone please help me??
Just praying for me can help :]

Just writing this makes me cry, i feel so empty

Jesus is closer than the air you breath. He was tortured brutally and willingly laid down His life out of His great love for you.
But- the one who paid everything to save your souls did not say he would negate your responsibilities. When we mess up we have a price to pay. That can make life feel like a storm but there is always that faithful One in the boat with us.
He loves you indeed and is longing to bring you and your dad close to His heart. It is when we decide to trust Him no matter the circumstance that we discover the meaning of God working all things for our good. He can and will bring something beautiful out of each and every situation.
You and your dad are in my prayers.

Just wanted to say I'm praying for you.

Greetings Sister,


Sometimes we do feel the Lord is far from us, which makes us plead all the more for Him to be close.

We don't often like or understand what can happen at the time it is happening, but be assured that the Love of God in Christ Jesus the Lord never stops and that through all things we can find Him, right there, with us.

We tend to look at what is happening and make our decision based on that. Of course, if what is happening is not to our liking, we will tend to decide something relating to that and the outcome is more one of sadness or frustration or anger or lonliness or confusion... etc etc.

I encourage you to look unto the Lord, and keep your eyes on Him until all your pain disappears. If we don't look to Him and seek His face, we won't be seeing His care for us, eternal and true, and we therefore might become a little confused. If we look to Him Who gave Himself for us and cares for our every breath and need, we will begin to see afresh the Hope we have in Him, and His joy will strengthen us to endure the cross we bear.


May these words offer some comfort and support to you and may you know that Jesus loves you and is the one holding you through this time.


Bless you ....><>
