I Give Up

[GodsAmbassador]

I want to see God as good but no longer see how. I've been denied so much in life. Guess what i want and what he wants is different. I don't like or trust what he wants for me. I want to die and go to heaven. Life is torture everyday seeing others blessed and I'm forced to see God as good just existing. I'm tired of church. Its a waste of time. Just a social club. I wish i knew what God had against me or why he decides to not help me. I'm even sick of praying. Why bother? Except for death as he'll do what he wants. I just want to be blessed in the midst of my suffering..tired of living alone but no one for me. No hope. People are useless!! And if God doesn't help me..recently he isn't then what do I do? Where do I go? When people speak against God I defend him!! Now that I need help or something worth living for he isn't there. He wants me to be happy?? Too funny. Impossible. I welcome death as a friend. I hoped for so much. No more I give up. I belive God. But see no blessing in life. At least he can be gracious and let me die..no place for me in the church. Can't afford life. Sick of

One night a man had a dream.

He dreamed he was walking along

the beach with the Lord.

Across the dark sky flashed scenes from his life.

For each scene, he noticed

two sets of footprints in the sand,

one beloning to him and the other to the Lord.

When the last scene of his life flashed before him,

he looked back at the footprints in the sand.

He noticed that many times along the path of his life

there was only one set of footprints.

He also noticed that it happened at the

very lowest and saddest times in his life.

This bothered him and he questioned the Lord about it.

"Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you,

you'd walk with me all the way.

But I have noticed that during the most

troublesome times in my life there is

only one set of footprints.

I don't understand why when I needed you most

you would leave me."

The Lord replied "My precious, precious child,

I love you and would never leave you.

During your times of trial and suffereing,

when you see only one set of footprints in the sand,

it was then that I carried you."

Don't give up brother.

sick of seeing others blessed and nothing happen for me. Will do what I can for myself and God tho he choses to do nothing for me! I'm not living in disobedience or open sin so I've no idea why he does nothing to help me. Will just go through motions try to keep busy and kill or forget my desires..and God if I could but he is always on my mind. Too bad I'm not on his.

You and I will never know the true purpose behind what God has in store for us, why he approaches it the way he does and why we see other succeed at what we fail - even when we might work harder for it, need more of it or deserve all of it. You aren't alone in the abandonment we feel. Hell, I am going through that exact situation right now with something very important to me. But, it is the journey and our response that matter as far as I can see. Maybe instead of Church, go to a homeless shelter and help serve the poor people that walk through those doors, visit a nursing home for the elderly or a and ICU at a children's hospital.

God knows I am not one to preach. I am just as guilty as the sinners on my left and right. But i am trying to make a change and these are some of the things that can truly strike the heart with care and compassion for your fellow man and the belief that there is a God who REALLY DOES care for all of us. It's hard to believe that given those identified circumstances but maybe you should give it a try. Find the passion in your life where you can actually be an extension of the grace that you so desperately seek. Ask for help and be free of the malice that might be in your heart. I and others will be praying for you.

Dear Lord, You know the hopelessness and heartache in this man. I ask dear Lord that You would please bring him the peace that only You can. I pray that You would help him to work through and deal with his pain and to not give up. Please help him to know and believe that his life IS important and that You have a purpose for him-he just needs to find it.
