hi .
for the last few days I have bin feeling really really depressed . I have had a lot of horrible things happen to me in my life like no job , being in debt and now I'm single again . ok I know I should talk to the lord about this, but I don't have anyone else to talk to.there has there is so much bad stuff going on in my life at the moment , but what is really making me very depressed is that I'm single .......... being single is more then I can take. I have given up on see how my life can get any better ( and before you ask , yes I do trust the lord , but if you was in my shoes you would then understand how hard my life has just got). My family use to care now they are fed up with me and don't want to talk to me ( this is being to hurt me ) I'm so sorry guys for go on and on but I just can't take any more of this life . I know that the lord cares about me very much. I hope someone can help ?????
 
allow me to remind you at this time that Christ had it a lot harder than you ..He was spat on and punched and yet he still fullfilled His Fathers bizz...if you continue to croppy flop.;.you will gain no ground ..i want you to know that this is not a time of loss but gain..there is plenty of work out ther but ask God instead to POSTION you where He can use you the best for His will and hold on tight He will answer that kind of request ..as for me im on my 4th marraige and this one is going on 17 yrs..Because I asked God for a mate instead of chasing skirts because i was lonley ...and for the reacord youre never alone ! concentrate on The things of God and let Him do the rest.ask God show me why im here and how i can Glorify YOU then watch what happens..I promise you this MY GOD CAN SUPPLY ALL YOURE NEEDS if they are of God and not youre emotions or lonliness ..Dont allow youreself to concentrte on what you dont have but what God wants you to have ..LET GO AND LET GOD...Rev
 
If you put yourself in Christ's shoes then your heart would be filled with the fearlessness of Christ. The supernatural power of God would make you discover the secret faith that is so strong inside you, sin cannot weaken such power of faith when linked together with Christ's faith. Jesus would never stop showing any concern for the poor, the helpless and the sick.
Becoming a volunteer for the Salvation Army, for example, can be a life-changing experience where your partner and your family can see the miracle of Jesus working inside you. The pain of your past failures turn into the painless supernatural peace of Jesus as we Christians quietly look forward into the future for the coming of Christ's kingdom on Earth.

We Christians in our global community wait patiently for the coming of our victorious Lord Jesus, hopefully very soon in the future, so that Satan can be defeated and sin can be deleted once Jesus has transformed our old earth-born selves to new glorious minds and bodies of Christ...

As we socialize together as brothers and sisters of Christ in God's most massive and most modern place of Community: the Kingdom of God on a new oceanless planet Earth where Christ's supernatural joy will be so over-joyous, our hearts will be so very positive and our faces so very always smiling.:*:.

Maybe the singleness could be turned into a good thing for awhile, to spend more time getting closer to Jesus, and learning about HIS will for your life? I'm sorry to hear you're having such a rough time though, and just know that he's a friend that will stick closer than a brother.

When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up. - Psalm 27:10

When you have put all of who you are into a
human being, and that person leaves, you will
feel as if a void has been created. You felt
you had to be with this person to be complete, but
I have learned the hard way that unless you are 100%
complete in Jesus Christ, then you will find it very
difficult to be when you get into another relationship.
Ephesians 3:19

Let the Lord be your everything. Lay down your feelings,
your problems, your broken heart at His feet. He will
take those broken pieces and recreate them into something
beautiful that will never look the same, but instead, will
look more glorious because He is using your pieces
for His will and His plan for you.

Jeremiah 29:11
 
Hi For Christ,

First let me say I'm sorry you are hurting, I can't possibly know what you are feeling but God does and He knows you need Him more than ever. When we face things we don't always understand why they are happening, and maybe it's not for us to understand but
to lean on God and His understanding not on our own understanding.

I remember a time in my life where things were aweful and I too felt there was noone to talk to you and nowhere to turn, but in that time God showed me that the only one I truely need is Him...you said that you have no job, are in debt and single again...don't despair because God is there and wants you to know that He is there and that you need only Him to make it through. He is your provider, sustainer, your strength, your peace, your hope, your strong tower and with Him you can do all things and come through any situation.

You spoke of being single again. I am 41 and still single because I choose to wait on the Lord instead of doing what I did in the past which is going on my own feelings and emotions..now I want His will for me and am waiting for that one special man He has for me. Be patient for Christ and wait on the Lord. He tells us in pslams to be still and know that He is God. He wants the best for you and if you wait on Him that is surely what you will recieve blessings upon blessings more than you ever thought possible.

I will be lifting you in prayer. God surround and fill you with his love, peace, comfort and strength now and always

Proverbs3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.

Psalm55:22 Cast your burden on the Lord, And He shall sustain you; He shall never permit
the righteous to be moved.


Psalm46:10 Be still, and know that I am God
 
I know how is feels to be depressed, it ain't no fun. Right now you're hurt, but grab ahold of the hand of God and you will be all right. You may think you have no faith, but a shaking hand is still a hand, so you take His hand. Let Him carry you through this, God will not leave you in the fire too long. He never said that our hearts would not be broken, but He did say He would mend them again!!!! If you need a friend, just keep on posting here, all of us will pray for you! Your circumstances are enough to depress anyone.....but sometimes these things happen. It is so easy to praise God when everything is fine, but near impossible when everything is going wrong. God has not abandoned you. I used to tell the Lord when I was going through a very hard and hot trial. Lord, this fire is so hot, I'm done now, take me out!!!:wink:

No problem, anytime you need some support you will know where we're. I've hit rock bottom several times in my life, and even though I sometimes think there is no hope, God will always be there with outstretched arms when you fully seek him. Even reading the bible can have amazing therapeutic effects to renew the mind and start to focus on the things above. God bless!
 
For Christ!! Hi sis!! I just want you to know something!! Not only does Jesus love you!! but so do we in him!! Do you know how we can do this sis??? Here is why!! 1 John 4:19!! WE LOVE!!! Because!!! HE!!!( meaning Jesus!!) FIRST!!! Not second or third,but FIRST!!! LOVED US!!

Let your heart become glad!! I sure understand what feeling lonely is and means!! I am 58 and never married!! LOL So I am content with what I do have.I have found that by doing this,good things are just around the corner!! If you really need to have someone God will provide this!! How do I know this??? 1 Cor 10:13 he will provide the way of escape for you!! YOUR JOB?? Give him the time you so need from another!! Jesus can get lonely to!

That is why he made us in the first place! My prayers are with you,be of good cheer and comfort!! When you understand what love truly is,then my dear sister you are ready to receive it from a person. Blessing always!
 
Sister, we can all relate to what your going through to some degree. I was at a point where I felt so depressed about being single and lonely, then ended up in a marriage not intended by God, an abusive marriage and going through a divorce. However, God brought tremendous good into my life even now going through this divorce. He has restored peace of Christ which transcends all understanding. He has restored joy in my heart. I have been a born again Christian ten years this month and I finally understand what it means to truly draw close to Him AND be content with where you are, in my case single again just like you. There is a special feeling in you that comes from God alone, not even your spouse can match. It is the Holy Spirit stirring within that just touches the person that no words can describe.

Draw close unto Him. I have learned through this hellish marriage and divorce that the goodness of God is always amazing, regardless of our circumstances. You can always rely on Him for peace, redemption, restoration and blessings. The divorce and other attacks in my life no longer have a hold onto my joy in Christ. He is greater, He is Savior.

Pray out loud with all your heart, in your prayer closet (that is, privately). It works. He listens and He answers a sincere faithful heart.
 
I have to agree with all the others that the Lord is where we find joy,peace,stability and strength of mind and heart.

Consider this:When the Lord makes us whole we are different and the true person that God had always intended us to be may attract a different type of person.We may also be attracted to a different type of person when we are made whole.
The renewing of our mind also includes a change of desires that is not forced by us.
It is simply better to be fixed than broken and it's really tough for two broken ones to fix themselves well enough to even be able to help fix each other.
Until we are stable we really don't have that much to offer.

I pray that you find the joy and peace that God intended for you so that you will be a benefit to any partner and all who come in contact with you.I ask this in the name that is above every other name,Jesus Christ.

1 Corinthians 7:32 But I want you to be free from concern. One who is unmarried is concerned about the things of the Lord, how he may please the Lord
1 Corinthians 7:33 but one who is married is concerned about the things of the world, how he may please his wife,
1 Corinthians 7:34 His interests are divided. In the same way, a woman who is no longer married or has never been married can be devoted to the Lord and holy in body and in spirit. But a married woman has to think about her earthly responsibilities and how to please her husband

This devotion will accelerate your learning curve in the Lord and once you are strong and full of the love of God and faith you will attract many(maybe to many) people to you whether it be for love or friendship.

I thought I'd share this with you. The point is that we must seek GOD with all our hearts. Our attention must be fully on Him, first, foremost.

Matthew 6:32-34

<sup class="versenum" id="en-NIV-23315">32</sup> For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. <sup class="versenum" id="en-NIV-23316">33</sup> But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. <sup class="versenum" id="en-NIV-23317">34</sup> Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
