I know the inner workings of man. I know there reality and when I try to give advice, they will not heed it! If only they knew, I could save them a life time of troubles!

Have you ever heard the phrase "A legend in your own mind"

It sounds like you are trying to help someone through something, or to lead them to Christ. Well, you must remember that only God can save them. You can be a vessel used for God, you can be a example of Christianity to them, but never will you beable to save them. God is the only one who saves.
The only advice I can give is to keep planting those seeds to your lost loved ones. Do not give up. Also know that sometimes it is not necesary to "preach" to a person. Them watching how we live can also be a wonderful thing. If they see you happy and doing right, they will wonder what it is that is making you so very happy. They will want what you have. It is okay to tell others about God and his son, it is okay to show the example of Christ through your life, it is okay to invite people to church. Just remember not to be to preachy or to forceful. God gave all man the choice to accept him or not, so we must remember in our wittnessing not to be forceful because no one can be forced into loving God and accepting him. Prayer too is very important for what you are frustrated about. Pray for those, that God will reveal himself to them. That you can be an example of his love and mercy. That God will bring the right people in their lives at the right time. Ultimatly it is up to the individual to accept God and his son. God saves, we are just his workers. Hope this helped.

A lot of people are not here for sound advice and logical answers. They mostly want people to reinforce their questionable behavior or just to agree with them.

If only we could see so clearly into our own situations. Why are we so blind in the one place that could do us the most good?
