Hi, Sweet Little Angel . . . you shared >
"Me have a bad time last few days.. hurt..
that i thought i couldnt put up with that kind of situation.
But then, i looked at it in a spiritual way.
At first, i listened to a christian song entitled..how cud i ever..
the lyrics goes something like this..
when i woke up today, thinking of all the things You ve done..
Suddenly i broke into tears..as
i cud felt Jesus n Papa wrapping me close to them..
was very real. At the same time, i could feel His heart."
Yes . . . we can feel His heart, what He is feeling.
"I know we love n accept ppl just the way they are.
But doesnt mean they can mistreat or make us to do things in their way."
If we go through things, now, that are hard and painful > later, when we have different people to share with in love, we will be able to feel for them about what they are going through, and know what they need, from how God got us through these painful things. Jesus went through things so hard, so now He can feel for us and help us > Hebrews 4:15 > also 2 Corinthians 2:3-4. But Jesus did not just let anyone do anything, at all, to Him.
"As when a child of God hurt, He hurt too. I know..He is..when He hugged me.
Then i stared in the sky for hours..feel His presence..
and suddenly..when i looked at material things around me..
i said, what s that..means nothing to me..
all i want is only Him..nothing compare to that.."
WOW!!! That's beautiful ! ! !
"i feel want to do something ony for Him..
when a child wants an attention..they wud stretch the boundries..
He wants my attention..my bounderies stretched..
He got my attention..and now seeing with new eyes."
Thank you

Angelbaby,
I Was just thinking about how your heart smiles when you are able to help someone else.
You have a heart that loves people and loves to help people.
God smiles on this.
You are his child, who he dearly loves.
Big squeeze.

I would like to quote part of the step #12
As your friend, I caution you ...
You ARE gonna fall down ...
EVERYONE DOES
The devil sees every instance as an opportunity to attack. His evil offerings will not appear to be bad, but he'll package them with ribbons and bows and make them look like a gift instead of a curse. He is dressed in a tuxedo, not a red suit with a forked tail, a pitchfork in his hand, and horns on his head. His intent is to disguise evil. He'll try to make you think he and/or his ideas are romantic, fun, intelligent, captivating honorable even. Be alert. Be careful how you walk. Be alert. Walk in the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Do not be deceived. He does not sleep. He will use whatever means that he can to lure you into his deceit: television shows, commercials, movies, books, magazines, billboards, food packaging, newspapers, mail, clothing, dreams, music, thoughts, even Christian holiday gimmicks such as Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny. You name it, his purpose is to win your soul away from God, ANY way he can.
He's depending on the chance that his repeated attempts will make you give up the fight for righteousness.
BEAT THE DEVIL AT HIS OWN GAME
How do you do that? By reverse psychology. He's depending on your weakness, so he's going to aim for that. Guess how you send his arrows crashing to the ground ... By planting this good seed:
2 Corinthians 12:9
My strength is made perfect in weakness.
The last thing the devil is expecting is that Jesus will become stronger in you because of his games. So, use it to your advantage. Lean on Jesus when the arrows are flying. Don't let temptation become stronger than the presence of the Lord at any time. Do whatever you have to do to get rid of it. An even better thing to do is avoid it in the first place.

Now, Angel Baby, here I am, praying about what God wants me to share with you . . . since God is the One who knows you, and I shouldn't just give you an answer going by just what you say and what I suppose I know to say to what you say. And I'm thinking > this is what you should do, in order to support someone > pray for God to prepare you for whoever He wants you to support, to have you ready, and able to say what He will want you to say with the person. And the people. Be faithful, trusting God to take care of this . . . as well as you can > you're not perfect at this, like I'm not, but we can trust You, LORD, to do this with us . . . as long as it takes > correction and improvement in being able to do this takes Your time and patience with us Your kiddos
And be peaceful that you know you have trusted this to God, and are depending on Him and not on yourself > what a rest *that* can be, to not be depending on ourselves and putting it all on us And, no . . . I'm not like this, all the time. When I wake up in the morning, I have to stop and wait while the nonsense gets cleared from my head and then I am in peace and my attention is to God. And I be open, for what He will please to do with me.
And are we here to please ourselves, or to be pleasing to You, God? We need to be pleasing to Him, first, before we start anything. How do we know we are pleasing to God or not? Well, if I'm operating in nasty and negative stuff, no way am I in His peace and beauty of love which makes me pleasing to Him. So, I think we have this ready feedback > when we are deeply pleased and satisfied with God in His goodness and beauty of peace and joy and love . . . this is pleasing to Him, too And so often I need to get corrected about this. No one is alone in needing to do better in this. So, we can support each other, then, can't we

angel, there are people right here in this forum, who could use your help and encouragement. The problem is sis, most are afraid to ask for help, so they go through life so very lonely. That's why we have to step up and reach out to them, kinda like throwing them a rope when they are stuck in a hole. So seek sis, and you shall find...just start reading some posts in the forums of souls who are hurting, and respond...even if you just tell them your there and will be glad to listen.
luv ya sis

A poem for you:
Questions by Nolongerbleeding
How could He do this?
Die for me?
my sin was on His back,
My hand beat Him...
yet He died loving me...
ME..
Jesus Christ loves a sinner,
died for a sinner...
ME.
Why?
Why did He die for me?
Why not die for the ones who loved Him and served Him?
You know ...Peter, Mary, John ..
Why die for me?
The sick, twisted, sinner I am?
Why?
Because He came as a Healer to heal the sick,
And a Savior to save the sinful ...
ME.
