Maybe I'm being a little dense this morning ~ but not sure of your meaning. Giving up on what exactly?

Well darlin, tried to send you my personal email address ~ in case you needed someone to talk with. Couldn't do it though, because I didn't meet your age range (go figure...lol).



Well, there are people here who care and would like to help, if you're feeling really down. Let us know.

i could see how that would be a little confusing...i did leave it a little vague...i was referring to my ex, she gave me a call, and i guess i had to come to tha understanding that no matter i she said, it just wasnt going to work out...just one of those thingz i suppose..

I almost did that once...Don't God has someone out there for all of us. And when it's time he'll bring him/her into our lives. The hard part is being patient enough to wait for His timing and moving past those relationships we thought were meant to be. That's not always easy...I pray God gives us all the courage and strength to do just hat.

Sweetheart, do not give up. We live in a "fallen world" and things just may not make sense to us and people will let us down. But God does not. His Word is true and He says, "I have a plan for you, a plan for GOOD and not for EVIL." Our job is to open to that plan and not to stay bitter - from whatever attacks us. We may be looking for an elaborate, unobtainable plan and desire - when what He has for us is simple, true and right under our nose. Also, when the enemy is beating you up, he is threatened by you in SOME WAY so don't take it personally.



We don't know what others are going through to make them leave a marriage, suddenly break up, or bolt for no reason that we can see. They are obviously going through a great trial and temptation. I think prayer is essential to bring good, supportive people into our lives and pray "through" those who are tempted and blinded by the enemy. But they do have a free will and maybe they need our prayers in the worst way. One thing I have observed is how we have high expectations for each other, rather than God's grace and long-suffering. Kind of like the vows say - for better or worse. We are so imperfect and need God's grace to give to others and receive for ourselves. Otherwise it would not be included in the vows. Meaning, watch out, there may be and probably will be choppy waters ahead but look to God's ways and He will smooth out the sea for you - for good sailing.

I wouldnt call is "giving up" cause those are harsh words that bring us down... i would call it "moving on"... Gods timing is peffect and he wants what is best for you, so just have patience (im still working on that one) and have faith because he will pull through for you like alwaays.

Your words were very sweet you must be a very person and I think that was very wise advice without telling him what to do.Just helping what to do and what to expect very good encouragement. I hope SCguy24 dont hold it against me by intruding in but it sound like good sound advice. bluereyes

Moving on, yes. And Gods timing is perfect whether we realize it or not. When one door closes, another opens. Just dont pray for the Lord to teach you patience, because he surely will.
