Looking as I already don't feel good about asking a bunch of strangers a question about my personal life as it is.. I 'd like for you guys to be gentle on me.
A little background:
I am divorced and have 2 kids. We decided to give it a second chance to see how this would work out if we started fresh. But, as I am seeing there is no freshness, if you will, because all the old garbage is hanging over our heads. Things I don't need to get into but, just know there things most people should and do solve the first time and don't let it repeat over and over again.
So, the second chance for me is over with my ex-husband. We are about to foreclose on our house and it seems, and feels like all 4 walls of my life are closing in on me.
Ok now for the question:
I want to know what the hell God is trying to tell me here. Because I am one frighted chick right now! Bad things happen to good people crap needs to stop anytime now! Because I am full and had my share. Then again, maybe I am n

OPS maybe I am not. But how do you tell what God is trying to tell you, teach you and show you. Because it feels like everyone is against me, even God~

Thank you for your reality check, however, I am not against God and I do pray to him every day, and night asking him to protect me and my children. I didn't say out right he was against me, I asked why does he keep testing me and giving me crap. Because I am full and don't feel I am strong enough to go on. I am tired! But, thanks for putting a prejudgment on me-I appreciate that!

I think it's pretty obvious--God either has someone better lined up for you or wants you to become more independant

There's no way of knowing which gender is truly more aggressive than the other when it comes to relationships (lesbian, gay, transsexual, straight, or bisexual) and its impossible to be 100% sure when it comes to the studies that record data from others, because people are not always honest when comes down to it. This is a very tender subject and people are not always eager to discuss matters of partner abuse or to report it to authorities. While it the study may be very accurate, it has also been shown that woman tend to be more open about more tender subjects than most men, because most men don't like to admit they've been beaten up by their partner (male or female) and taking this into consideration, its nearly impossible to be certain that everyone is telling the truth (unless of course we add security cameras all around them or have someone follow them 24/7, but that wouldn't work for obvious reasons) So while this study may be accurate its almost impossible to tell whether its true or not, and if its true and homosexual women tend to be more violent than homosexual men, than there is some reasons why this could be (verbal disagreements that turn physical, mood swings, pms etc)

Hi,
Just for smiles, I am well going through with my husband and we are in foreclosure, actually lost the property. I am fed up with the fact that my husband has been spending time talking with another woman. We are Christians and are to be one. If either of the "one" commits any act of infidelty then they must repent on their own actions. If that "one" continues on in unrighteousness then the other "one" feels lost as well because it's not "whole"ness anymore. I know it is through all things, but if "one" doesn't want to stop their irrational and unreasonable ways that is making everyone miserable around him or her then something must be done. It will only be so long before the "whole" ship sinks. Now, the only thing we can do is PRAY, PRAY, PRAY.
I would like to say a small prayer for you:)
Dear Father,
Please give unto us the Peace that surpasses all understanding that is in your Word oh God. We stand on all your promises that You Say Father. We know that without You we will fail. But, because You are our Father, we are more than conquerors and will overcome any obstacle and make it an opportunity that brings us closer to You God. Touch our homes, our husbands, as well as giving us the understanding and knowledge of Your Word that we may speak and it shall be. for we were made in Your image Father and have the Power of your Son Jesus to call those things that be not as though they are. We know Father that marriage is very precious and Holy to You and we ask in Jesus name that You would lead and guide us in the Holiness of our marriages.
In Jesus Name,
AMEN

Jews call God Adonai. You feel God is trying to tell you something, maybe he is. But I'm not so sure. You sound like a pretty smart person to me. My only comment is to keep going.
I have a feeling you have already prayed and will pray some more.
That said, just keep going. With all my heart I believe that God loves you.

First off, you don't know God that is why you believe that he is against you. maybe it is you against him!! Have you ever thought about it that way? What do you do for God? You want him to do everything for you and you are complaining because he gives us challenges in life. How many people are in the same situation as you? Get real sister. Turn your focused around. God is not aganist you. If he was you would be in Hell. I am not trying to be harsh but learn about God and understand His Blessings and Be Thankful for everything no matter what.

The truth is, God is not responsible for the bad things which happen in our lives. 99% of them are the result of OUR poor choices. The other 1% are just bad luck! So do not blame God or think that He is trying to teach you something. Simply look at the choices that YOU made which led to your current situation. If it is NOT of your doing, then it is your husband's fault and you need to take out all your frustrations on him.

OK here goes God is not against you but sometimes we need to know when to be silent and listen without our ego being in in charge of our listening. As far as your relationship I know that if you are expeiriencing negative feelings you must accept those negative feelings since only you are the one who owns those feelings. The next part is to let go of those feelings by this I mean you tell yourself "I let go of these feelings" But just as you let go of your money when you pay a bill you let go of those negative feelings. This is called REBT or CRT = Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy or Cognative Rehabilitative Therapy. This require you to think and accept and let go. Only you can do this once you have you can work on those things in your relationship that are what keeps you in confict. I hope this web site help you in you anguish.

But like I stated God is not against you nor do you have to become an atomitom and follow the crowd on who or what is God. Your concept of God is yours and yours alone. Jesus did not give a discription of God but did describe Gods attributes. Knowing all " If a sparrow fall....." God is always working " My father is always working to this day.....John 5:16 You are in Christ family, " My mother and brothers are those who hears Gods words and put it to practice. " Luke 8:21 I say this because you have stated in the past you are Christian. I choose my self to love the teacings of Christ and Look at my faith in the cosmos and universe. Nothing abosolutely nothing happens in Gods universe by mistake. So what ever you happen to be going through weather it is drugs and alchohol are a fire burning down your home when you get through it and come out the other side you will have been made stronger or wiser to help others in the same problems. I really appreciate you asking such in depth question.
desiderata - by max ehrmann
Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant, they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love, for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is perennial as the grass.
Take kindly to the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul.
With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

your first question should be: are you against ADONAI?
do you want all the goodies for doing nothing?
your angry at ADONAI for satan's crimes. put the blame
where it belongs; with satan. now figure out what ADONAI
gets out of the deal. nothing. ADONAI is not the reason
of broken homes. the me's are as is satan.

its probably a test. you should just keep praying and loving God and worship him even though these bad things are happening, like Job.
