I am praying for God's help in letting go of a friendship

[PrayerRequest1997]

I am praying for God's help in letting go of a friendship that is no longer healthy and is hurting me emotionally. The friend I am trying to let go of has stopped wanting to hear my problems, tells me I'm difficult to talk to or be around, and uses their own problems as ways to say mean things to me or accuse me of making things about me when I attempt to help them. At one time, this wasn't the case - I felt like the person opened up to me, told me about their problems, and wanted me to help, wanted to hear my ideas. I felt like I could be myself with this friend, be heard, be understood and accepted. I have depression and very few people accept me, but I thought this person was one of those people. Over the past year, though, that hasn't been the case, and all I feel is hurt and rejected. And so I need God's help to let go of this friend. I need God's help to make the process less painful. I need God's help to be strong and actually let go.

 

[Rick1]

Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. (Matthew 11:28)

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on you own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight. (Proverbs 3:5-6)

I am praying for you and with you.

Praying with you and for you In Jesus Name Amen

6. Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanks giving let your request be made known unto God. 7. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Amen (Philippians 4: 6-7)
