Well, I guess I'm suppose to share my thoughts..

I've been kind of miserable lately... I'm living with my parents in a small city (I'm from a bigger city) and I don't much care for it... I love my parents but I miss my independence... Um, other thoughts are that I feel like a waste of air and a burden to people... but that just fuels my loneliness... I'm tired of crying and other days I'm just tired of living...

I don't feel like I can recognize God's voice or what His will is for me... I tend to be wrong in that area...

I have a deep desire that... concerns a guy... I have a desire to be his wife and encourage him... and it sounds so stupid and impossible (especially since he lives a thousand miles away and doesn't see me that way...) but I can't shake this desire and I'm praying to know God's will, but I don't hear anything... >_< and it's frustrating...

I've been having trouble focusing lately and I don't much like myself so I don't expect others to..

Um... there's probably more confusing thoughts and feelings that I have, but that's all I can think of right now..

hi hrw :)

welcome

Ive actually been in similar circumstances (give or take a few things) and I can relate a lil bit to how you feel.

I had to remember that nothing is a constant except the God who never changes, but who can indeed change things. We all experience seasons in our lives, and no matter what season you may be in, it is but a season and will pass to make room for another. And no matter what our circumstances, God will help us to learn and grow from them, if we allow Him to.

You shared that you have a lil difficulty recognizing God's voice, and I believe that there are times when even the most 'tuned in' Christian has that problem too. When you doubt, go directly to the written Word and KNOW that you are hearing the voice of God within those pages.

Its good that you are sharing your thoughts, as scattered as they may seem now to you now. Because as you progress you will see God work in you and bring you understanding of those things that are confusing now. And these very posts will become a testimony to Gods power and presence in your life. Keep sharing and keep seeking God.
