Im back for like two min becuase i need prayer from my fellow CAAers.
My dad cant find a house and his "wife" is giving him until the 17 of oct to get his dogs out of the house and send them somewhere else and the other day i sent out an email to all of my friends and is said basically said that i dont want to hang out with you unless you are sold out to God but i will make an acception if you dont do the following things around me (i made a list of 5 things such as dont cuss and no secular music) because im trying to get closer to God.
And my friend kinzey took it wrong none of my other friends did just her she was all you said blah blah blah and your not perfect (after that i told her i knew that and could not be perfect either) but its just she is acting like my sister Jennifer and she has changed since she started dating a guy named billy who has stopped going to church all together and she has become BAD i mean the new sense of the word its rediculous.
and also my grandma needs to rededicate her life to the Lord and my sister still needs to get saved but thats about it please pray for me and send me some kind of advice.

I'm lifting you up to the Father.

And as far as advice... you have to do what's right between yourself and God, but I'll throw in my 2 cents. It's totally cool if you need to separate yourself from these friends for a while. You do need to be careful how you approach non-Christian friends in order to avoid turning them off. Perhaps you could quietly isolate yourself from these friends without making a big deal about it to them. (I think that would go along with where Jesus spoke of not letting the left hand know what your right hand is doing when you do good works, so that you would be doing it to be seen by the Father -- Matthew 6:3-4.) If they ask you why you've not been coming around and doing these things that drag you down, perhaps you can explain that you needed some time away to get closer to God. Some of them may make negative comments, but in all likelihood they'll respect you. You may not see it for a while, but perhaps by not outright saying you're breaking off the friendship but at the same time living a Christ-like lifestyle, they will see from a distance that your witness is for real, and it could plant a seed in them coming to know Christ later on.
Theme Scripture: Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage. (Galatians 5:1)

And a verse for all us single folks: Do we have no right to take along a believing wife, as do also the other apostles, the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas? (1 Corinthians 9:5)

Which one is the one dating Billy?

You're doing the right thing by trying to focus on God. Our job is to live the Gospel. God will work in their hearts when they see the shining example you are. Also, have you tried apologizing to your friend? Apologies can go a long way in healing a relationship.

I understand somewhat the situation you are in because I have struggled with it some also. While you may not accept all of the things your friends do, try to accept them, because God loves and accepts them. (Although I do admit that it is easier said than done.)

But you could've written it in a nicer way...^^;

I see nothing wrong with wanting to become closer to the Lord, and it's great to see you're taking measures to ensure that. That rocks! :)

Maybe your friend kinzey took offense to it because she saw it as a list of demands... or maybe she felt you were judging her... Maybe?


Whatever the case, I'll be sure to keep you, your family and friends in my prayers. Stay strong in faith =)

Hey, I hear you. I've had to do the same thing, and one of them was a girl I felt really close to. He'll get you through it if you'll just hang on and believe He's faithful.

I'm glad to hear that things seem to be ok now. Yes, I know that this is, like, a month late, but I was having internet access problems. Long story. Anyway, God is good!
