Answer 1

There's nothing I can say, so I'll offer a Word from The Word. If you trust in yourself or others, you'll come up short. Look to Jesus, the Word alone. God doesn't want religiosity, He wants a relationship with you. Read the bible everyday prayerfully and carefully. Seek ye first the kingdom and righteousness and all these things will be added to you.

Jeremiah 17
5 This is what the LORD says:
"Cursed is the one who trusts in man,
who depends on flesh for his strength
and whose heart turns away from the LORD.

6 He will be like a bush in the wastelands;
he will not see prosperity when it comes.
He will dwell in the parched places of the desert,
in a salt land where no one lives.

7 "But blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD,
whose confidence is in him.

8 He will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit."

Answer 2

I am going to try and help you if I can. God does not hate you. Think of Jesus hanging on the cross because He desires you to have a personal relationship with God. God loves you that much, that if you were the only person on earth, He would have still sent Jesus. My health is not perfect, finances are far from perfect. Things on my husband's side of the family are not really good either- however I can say one thing- God is good. What are you looking for in a church? A place where you can all your needs met, or a place where you serve God, by serving others. I agree that there are some churches that are better than others, that there is a different church for different people= however I have learned you get out of worship what you put into it. Why do you say God hates you? As a child of God, we have to look within ourselves to see why we feel this way- also it could very well be Satan that is trying to convince you that God hates you. DO NOT BELIEVE HIM- He loves you.

Hi N!cky:
You may be going through what is know as the dark night of the soul. This happens when you are going through a transition period spiritually.
Another thing is that you may want to go see a doctor and have your blood tested. Maybe you are feeling a little depression because of hormone imbalance.
If it is just being down on your luck, well there is no such thing as luck, so you are just going through tough times right now and you need to hang in there. This too shall pass.
God Loves you all the time. we make our own reality. Ask and you shall receive. But be careful what you ask for. Be specific. Think it out good and long and put it on a piece of paper and pray over it and believe that God will take it into his care. Prayer does work. If you are not specific, you may get something you don't want. I wish you the best.

Answer 4

I'm not going to take advantage of your unhappiness by trying to persuade you that my belief system is right and yours is wrong. That's not my way. All I can do is try to give you some good advice, which may or may not work for you.

Sit down and make a list of specific things that are troubling you in your life. Don't think of them as one big problem hanging over you like a dark cloud. Deal with each problem separately, one at a time, and be patient with yourself and the world.

Try your best to get enough sleep and eat well. Every problem seems unsolvable when you're tired and ill-nourished. If you're a single parent, seek out the fellowship of other single parents. They will understand better than anyone else what you're dealing with and how hard it can be. If no such group exists in your neighborhood, perhaps you could organize one. Help yourself by helping others.

The solutions are within you.

Answer 5

Hang in there. We're all wanting something better in our lives. Even the most popular celebrities. And if we don't get that something, we are unhappy. It's very natural to feel that way. Everyone needs help. I'm telling you this because a while back, I was scared to ask for help. I just wasn't totally sure that I wanted to die, therefore I thought it was unimportant. Then without me realizing, it got worse and worse. So I did stick a knife through myself, it just didn't hit the spots where it would kill you. Yes, I was majorly injured but I didn't kill myself. Luckily my sister was there and she called 911 then my mother. All I'm saying is, it's not worth it! If you kill yourself then you will be treated worse than you're being treated now. Hell is sooo much worse than a bad life, I would know because the man who went to hell and back is a friend of my fathers. He told me and my dad a lot about the crap that happens there. I'm hoping you'll choose wisely about staying on earth, or leaving earth to a place worse. Thank you for reading, Natalie Parker💖

Answer 6

I was in the same boat. However, I realized I put myself there. It's easy to blame god when things don't go our way. We know we should save for a rainy day, but we always seem to find something to spend our money on. Your son is a blessing from god and hopefully you can straighten everything out, for his sake.

Go back to school and get a better job. Join mommy groups, to hook up babysitters for free ( switch off). You's be surprised how many people are in your shoes.

Pray the novena, out loud, with your son! You don't need to go to church if it doesn't feel right. You may want to call the pastor and speak with him anonymously. Just talking really helps.

Good Luck!

Answer 7

I think the first step into feeling better is to search deep inside you, and be at peace with yourself.

When I feel low or upset, i've learned to stop, take a step back, and look at the "bigger picture".

I think of all the things i'm thankful for.
My wonderful family, friends, job, and so many memories.

Just thinking about that brings a smile to my face.

Try it. Just think about the wonderful things you have.
Your son, whom I'm sure you love dearly, the air you're breathing, the warm sunshine.....

(I don't want too sound too corny, but when you think about it, there is LOTS of things we can be thankful for.)

Just remember that life is a gift...a wonderful gift that we only get once, and every minute that ticks on by is lost forever.
We all have rainy moments like the one you might be passing by, but remember, after every storm, there's a rainbow.

I wish you the best.

Answer 8

every one will give you advice on times when you feel God is not there,they'll tell you to keep praying,to go to church more,and do other things that sometimes they dont do,but you have something right going for you,you see God in others, like your child for example,just because you dont feel Him right know doesn't mean He's not there,now about the money who hasn't gone through money problems? family is just a word,sometimes they're the worst people we can go to for advice because they're so judgemental.just wait on God and go do what you feel is right,more than likely youll make the right choice,and remember, God wont judge you like people do.

Answer 9

you have a son! He should be your life. The center of your life. Dedicate you life to make sure that his life will be fruitful and enjoyed. God wouldn't put you into a situation that you can not handle....just try to think of all the people on this earth who are in a more trying situation than you.
Cheer up....we live once.

Answer 10

Nicky, we all have times like that where nothing feels right.
Sometimes we just have to "go through the motions" and the feeling will come around and match up with the right things you're doing later. If this makes any sense.
