I am having a really hard time tonight. I just need

I think in the end it's going to come down to HIM, if it's {and I agree with you that it probably is }an "out of sight, out of mind" thing,sometimes even with our moves,the other person has to be on the same page.Like, I'm on a Classmates site, and I noticed there's a family there that I used to be very friendly with, in fact, in that case, THEY even contacted ME{means they want to keep in touch,right?}Well, I responded, they either didn't answer, or responded one time, then "moved on".I've had people swear high and low they'll keep in touch, then got their attention on current things,and their not too strong promise fell by the wayside.Some people just have short attention spans.God has the POWER to change that, but with Him there's other iffiness, He doesn't always interfere with "free will",or it might not fit in with a bigger spiritual picture.I think you can make your moves, friend him on Facebook, call him.Can "out of sight, out of mind" be reversed? I've heard of it, in other cases, no. Your goal would be to find a way to reverse "out of sight, out of mind".

I guess my fear that he will reject me again is what is holding me back.

I've done similar.I found our one of my high school friends moved to within a days ride of me,and I thought it would be nice to take a a day or 2 to contact him and visit him. But then I thought, well, it's been a long time, i'd feel funny about "popping up" after this time if "out of sight, out of mind" applies, I might take all that time going up there, and he'd be busy with current things and half ignore me.Also, there was a girl from that same time frame that had a big effect on me,and for a long time I couldn't find out much on her.. Then a little at a time, I did, and eventually, I found her sister had a site inviting replies, and thru the back door I could reaccess  the other one!!I thought of it, but then,I thought, well, it was so long in the past.I probably wouldn't have the same "draw" on her and circumstances have changed so I thought maybe it wouldn't  get as good results as I would hope for. I guess the decision you have to make is it worth a try, or is it better to stay in your comfort zone?,And realize it may or may not get results, based on his level of"out of sight, out of mind"..

"Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need." Hebrew 4:16

Father, I boldly come to your throne of mercy with this child’s need. I ask in your mighty power to meet this child’s need. I pray that this child of yours may experience your great love and care for them today. Give them eyes to see your hand of mercy at work in their life. Awaken all their senses to the realization that you will never leave them or forsake them.

In Jesus Christ’s Name I pray,  that you will receive and answer your child's prayers according to your perfect will and timing. Amen
