Also Pray for my sister Ami she ran away and may be pregnant she is thought to be in Oakland California
Ecclesiastes 11:9-10 "Be happy, young man, while you are young, and let your heart give you joy in the days of your youth, So then, banish anxiety from your heart and cast off the troubles of your body, for youth and vigor are meaningless,"


God is bigger than the boogie man, he's bigger than Godzilla or the monsters on TV. God is bigger than the boogie man and he's watching out for you and me

Lifted one for both sitations. And as far as feeling like your faith is waning... I know I write about this quite a bit in this forum, but I think the mind is one of the primary areas where Satan tries to get at us. He knows that God has given us freedom through Christ as Christians, but Satan certainly doesn't want us to stand in that freedom. But know that what God's Word says is true, about who God is, about who He makes us and about the love He has for us. Know that our standing with Christ is not about how we feel, but about what God says in His Word.

Be encouraged, my brother, and if you need to talk to someone, my PM box is open.
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)

Wow man, I know how this is. About a month ago my best friend ran away to California. I know where he was and everything, and I had to tell so they could get him back. He's in a boy's home now, but, yeah, during that whole time my faith felt like it was dangling by a string, and for sometime after, though not entirely because of the same reason, but I understand what you're going through. Prayers will be lifted for you.

Hey I hope things are getting better. I'm praying for ya.
I thought this might help:

"We wish to see Jesus." ~John 12:21

The constant cry of the world is, "Who will show us any good?" They seek satisfaction in earthly comforts, enjoyments, and riches. But the quickened sinner knows of only one good. "I wish I knew where I might find Him!" When he is truly awakened to feel his guilt, if you could lay a fortune before him he would say, "Take it away: I want to find Him." It is a blessed thing for a man when he has brought his desires into focus, so that they all center in one object. When he has fifty different desires, his heart resembles a stagnant pool spreading out into a marsh, breeding disease; but when all his desires are channeled in one direction, his heart becomes like a river of pure water, running swiftly to fertilize the fields. Happy is he who has one desire, if that one desire is set on Christ, though it may not yet have been realized. When a soul desires Jesus, it is a sure indication of divine work within. Such a man will never be content with mere externals. He will say, "I want Christ; I must have Him--mere ordinances are of no use to me. I want Himself; do not offer me these; you offer me the empty pitcher, while I am dying of thirst; give me water or I die. Jesus is my soul's desire. I wish to see Jesus!" Is this your condition, my friend, at this moment? Have you only one desire, and is that for Christ? Then you are not far from the kingdom of heaven. Have you only one wish in your heart, and that is that you may be washed from all your sins in Jesus' blood? Can you really say, "I would give all I have to be a Christian. I would give up everything I have and hope for, in order to know that I have an interest in Christ"? Then, despite all your fears, be encouraged--the Lord loves you, and you will come out into daylight soon and rejoice in the liberty with which Christ makes you free.

When you can't see your way in the dark... look toward the son.

God Bless
