Christianity Oasis Forum

Hey everyone.

I have not been on the site for a very long time. Almost a year maybe? But I then I got an email from the site admins saying I haven't logged in for a while and maybe I should. I have to admit, when I read it, I hesitated. Hesitated for about 3 days actually

When I found this website I was going through an incredibly difficult time in my life. I had no one in my life to support me and I thought that this would be the perfect place for Christian fellowship and support. I did not have that kind of experience. I made a few posts and commented on a few threads, but I was treated very poorly. I was mocked, laughed at, and I was very, very hurt by the things people would say. I was judged and made to feel like I was some kind of lesser Christian because I was experiencing a trial in my life and didn't have all the answers.

My experience on this site was truly a bad one, and I wanted nothing more to do with it. But we have all sinned and fallen short of the glory of Almighty God. Even though my previous experience was so bad, I realize that not everyone is like that. I need to extend the same grace to others that God extends to me every single day, even to the people that treated my poorly. I forgive them, as I am forgiven. I will give this another try. I will keep my heart guarded, but I will give it another try.
