I'm at a point where it seems no matter how much I try to reach out to others I feel like I'm constantly being rejected, and it seems also that when I seek God's guidance when this happens, not to mention praying for good to take place in my life all I find is more heartache. Why doesn't He hear me? I consider myself to be a verty caring person toward all those around me and I'm NOT finding the same in my life from anyone. . .any advice here?

Dearest Lord, So often we feel so alone. We forget that you are right there with us. That you not only see our suffering but experience it with us. So often men reject us. We don't look right, we don't talk right, we aren't like them. Father forgive them. Give us the grace to see that you are here with us, that you will never forsake us. Now Father I ask that you put us in a place in your kingdom where we can be feed by your people in love. Put us in a place where our love can reach out and touch others. Thank you Lord for your love and your grace we clam your word that all thing work out for good to those who love you those of us called by your name. In that name we pray...
Jim

He does hear you, but it sounds like you may be focusing too much on yourself, feeling sorry for yourself. While you’re asking God to give you good things in your life, pray for others to receive good things as well. Try to find an activity where you can help others in need, such as at a soup kitchen, clothing drive or food pantry. The more we put our thoughts and actions into the lives of others, the better we feel about our own lives.

You may be looking to hard for an answer from God. Sometimes when we are really in need of answers, we overlook the obvious. Not that it makes you feel better, but we have to have heartache to learn from and grow from. God will never give you more than you can handle, but you have to be open to the answers you are wanting to receive. Good luck to you and never lose your faith, it may be all that you have one day.

Place all your faith in God and none in people.
You must realize that the seeds you are planting may very well be harvested by someone else.
Pray, study and Praise God.

You're extremely sensitive. Please try doing things for the things' sake, without expecting ANYTHING in return.
You can participate in charitable programmes too.
