prayer works,


When I think of all that is going on in my life, it is at times hard to think clearly, I know that some have been through much worse situation than me but today I will say that I am totally overwhelmed.
I know that GOD hears my prayers and answers everyone of them, and still I have to wonder “why this is happening to me” I am striving to do better with my feelings and look at things differently. When I take steps toward achieving that “high” point in my life where I can say “whew” I made it, it seems that right then and there I am knock back even further than I was before I started, I am asking you all to help me pray, and if you have any answer, please feel free to share your heart with me. I have faith that GOD will continue to see me through, as I know that all things work together for the good...GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME!!!
I am not saying that I am depressed, but I will say that I get so so lonely, all my close friends are married, and have a family, or have been married, and have children, I am too old to be in the youth group, (12-25) and not too many things are happening to the ones (in between age) we don’t have a “singles’ group, or anything remotely close to it, and I am not going to start one, I make myself work 60+ hours just so that I am not alone. Which is a "sickness" I will make it, I know, as for the last few years I have made it, I have a made up mind to live for GOD, and I wll not by the grace of GOD lose out with Him, I am asking however to... HELP ME PRAY,

Oh, Cheri, I will pray for you. I have one suggestion to add to the ones you already know.

Get involved in the work of the Kingdom.
Teach a Bible Study, visit the elderly in a nursing home, make dinner for a sick mom, volunteer at a homeless shelter, ask your Pastor's wife if there is anything you can do for her, etc... The list can be as long as you want. Ask God to show you what to do and just go do it!
For me, doing things for others, always makes me feel better and I forget about how bad I felt. Let me know what you do and how it goes, okay?
God bless you! I love you.

Cheri - The lack of a singles group or anything remotely like it has been a pet peeve of mine for a VERY long time. Us older ones that aren't in the youth group but aren't married yet seem to have no place in the church. We never quite fit in anywhere. It is very, very frustrating! Maybe we just need to form our own group!

Hmmm...of course, maybe I won't be in the singles group much longer.... YAY!! :)

Anyway, I just want you to know that I SO SO feel your pain!

I LOVE YOU!
