Why is it that so many bad things are going on in this world?  It seems no matter how hard you try, nothing is ever what it seems. Today i woke up and all that i could think of was how self absorbed some people are  . I try not to be. In some cases it is extremly difficult. I just resently asked God into my life and since then very strange things have been happing. No explanation I can think of except one. Most of my best friends don't belive it in God (or anything to be exact) so some times it is extremely hard to focus on being a good christian. My Best-Best friend is now my foster sister ( i moved in with her) and her whole family is christian so its easier to talkj about it at home and yet for some reason i found my way here. I needed someone (in the flesh- well sorta) to "talk" too. so I hope someone will read this. Anyway bye.

To all friends in the Faith:
I was touched by reading your posts. The christian life friends is a difficult one; in fact it is impossible. But that's why we don't have to face it alone. WE never have to face it alone.
God gives us people, God gives us grace, and God gives us friendship. Friends, every day Jesus is teaching me these things.
Somedays the enemy attacks so powerfully that I just have to pause, and say "Jesus, you are my center. Never let me let you go. Oh intimate God I'm trying, but I am so weak, I am so unworthy."
I can attest to the fact that it is so easy to fall short friends. Do you know that Paul said "Anything that is not done by faith is sin?" It's so true, and I find myself falling into traps everyday. I want to assure you friends we are not independent in facing these trials.
BUT THAT IS THE POWER OF GRACE! Grace through the blood of Jesus who is the Christ and through no other merrit. He was crushed for our inequities! He was wounded for our transgressions.
What can we do? Give our hearts; our entire hearts. That is what Christ requires of us. There are going to be dark days, there are going to be struggles, but at the end of the journey through his mighty power you and I are going to be dancing in the Kingdom Forever and ever!
The Lord hears you friend! He wants you to understand that his grace is only a prayer away! He wants to not only be "Known by you" but he wants you to know him, deeper and deeper through each passing momment.
He desires to change you; to give you his kingdom to mold you into a true vessel for Christ!
Assuredly I say; he will never forsake you! Never forsake him!
Friends, in this time I struggle with many things. I am a constant failure, a sinner, a weakling, but hear me now; Christ is changing me! He is showing me that though satan tempts he has no power against me! Why? Because Every principality must bow to Jesus Christ who is the Lord Forever and ever!
Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I shall fear no evil!
We are all on a journey friends, a journey that entails pain, anguish, and suffering. But do not be discouraged, for the end my friends is Joy! Forever and ever!
Peace be unto you, you're in my prayers;
A brother in Christ,

Hey Taylor,
thanks for your honesty, asking Jesus into your life is an interesting thing. Sometimes people feel it sometimes they don't. The important thing is to press in through all obstacles and just go after God and his will for you no matter what the cost. The emotions will follow and they will be sweet. But yeah please don't just rely on your feelings to think about how you are doing with God. Rely on the bible to tell you about him and what it means to follow him.
