I've read your questions and man let me tell you. I have been tested with bumps, trenches, walls, you name it and God has tested me with it. Don't lose your faith in Him, he's testing you to see how strong you can be, how loyal your faith is, and to make you stronger in preparation for a tough tough world. I've been there. BELIEVE ME, and i used to curse him. But now I thank him for the trials and tribulations he put me through. They made me a strong person. Good luck friend. email me @ wudbiser@yahoo.com if you need to talk. later

You think you're the only one that that happens too. I am a Christian and there are lots of times I don't always get what I want. You just have to have faith and trust that God knows what is best for you. It may not be that God isn't going to give you the blessing you want. It may be that it isn't time for that to happen in your life yet. I struggle with my faith sometimes too, but I know God will take care of me. Did you ever read the book of Job in the Bible? I suggest you pull out your Bible and read it. Job was a man of faith. God put him to the ultimate test. Whenever God tests you, that means He loves you. If you want something that you're not getting, don't think that God is telling you "No." It could just be that God is telling you "Not now." Be patient. The Bible tells us that if we follow God's word and continue to trust Him everything else will fall into place for us. God does not make bad things happen to us, but I believe God will allow those things to happen sometimes. There is a difference. Through those hard times, we often become stronger people. God is always preparing us for something in the future that only He knows will happen. Don't lose your faith. This world needs it.

That is the dumbest thing I ever heard. God knows what is best for you. If you got everything you wanted you'd be spoiled, and probably in a lot of trouble. Don't try to think that you are better than God. And I'll give you a simple answer for how you can get what you want. Pray about it, and work towards it....and if that doesn't work, then hey, it's just not meant to be.

If you are wicked, then surely God has it out for you. If you don't trust God, how can God trust you? You are in a bad situation. You need to read the Bible more, and think less about yourself, and more about God's will. If you are not aligned with God's will, you are against God. So the first thing to do to avoid peril is to read the Bible, know about God, pray to God (for his will not yours). Doubting is no way to deal with God. The more you doubt, the more God will become distant, and you don't want that.
Look at how selfless Jesus was? Read the Gospel of John, be inspired by how selfless Jesus, and the Aposles became after following Christ's example? The more willing you are to give up yourself, the more God will bless you. All the ministers out there are happy, because they are serving God. I don't know of many happy ministers that became happy independent of following God. Doesn't this truth hit you? Don't try to put God in a box, and make him do your will. That's futile. You are going against the grain. This is a hard saying that is even difficult for me to follow, so join the club. My problems is with me, not with God. Oh how that is a hard pill to swallow, and I know I need to change.
All of Job's wealth was taken from him, and he suffered a terrible skin desease. All his friends heckled him. But Job refused to deny God. Job gained back all of this wealth and even more after God finally intervened after Job passed this terrible test.

Get alone in your room and have it out with God. Tell him exactly what you think (he already knows!), and ask him why you never get what you want. Ask him to please give you want you want. Then ask him to show you what he wants you to do about it.
It might also help you to make a list of what's right about your life. If you focus on what you're grateful for, it may help you cope with things you're discontented about.
And maybe you can thank God for what's right in your life. I think he tend to give more to people who are grateful for what they've already received from him.
There's a bible verse that says you don't receive because you don't ask, and when you do ask, you ask from wrong motives. See if this applies to you. Why do you want what you want?

God does not prohibit life, the devil wants to steal, kill, and destroy the gift of life. Maybe you should start trusting God and stop thinking like the devil. The devil hates you because God loves you. The devil wants you to go to hell with him, misery loves company.

You gotta trust God. He knows everything. Think of your hardships as tests which you have to accomplish or be prosecuted by Satan.

Have you even considered the possibility that you've been asking for the wrong things anyway?? Maybe it's you who can't be trusted...
Peace be with you!
