Prayers needed

[MrKrillz0r]

Hey guys, I'm really in need of some prayers.

I just feel like I lost the focus on God and started to care about other things instead like money, gaming, friends etc. I want to focus on God and not all those other things around me but I have a hard time to really give it my all.

And right now I'm pretty scared to be honest, pictures in my head of some satanic symbol just keep coming up and I get all sweaty.. I just want it to go away but its so hard, I feel like I'm just calling out on God now when I'm scared and keep losing focus when everything feels alright.

Will be praying. In these instances, I would address what you are thinking. And often that is when our weaknesses are at their strongest, when things are going "okay" worldly. I mean not always but I know for me I tend to be more complacent then when things are hard.

*cringe*. The enemy doesn't want you to be thinking about God so he's attacking. That might be a good sign or a bad one. I'm praying for you, dude!

That all happens to everyone man. Especially the "calling out on God now and losing focus when everything's alright". YOu gotta work on it, but it doesn't make you a bad person or horrible or anything. Heck, I'm dealing with most of that myself.

I will pray for you my friend. If you ever need to talk. You know how to contact me.

[TopazRaven]

I'll be praying for you to. In all honestly, I have the same problem. Sometimes I forget to focus on God.

[Nanao]

it's hard to stay focused on God sometimes. but, the devil certainly does not want you focusing on your Saviour. praying for you that God gives you clarity and peace.

Update: The images ain't a problem no more, but I still got a lot personal problems left to finish.

[TGJesusfreak]

Thats good news. But I am still praying for you nonetheless. =)

[acgifford]

thats good.^^ I am praying for you still.

[MrKrillz0r]

Thanks so much for praying for me!

I would like you to pray for my girlfriend as well, she is not a christian and she had a lot of problems in her life which I don't know that much about really. All I know is that he parents got divorced for a few years ago and I think she still haven't gotten over it. And that she used to party and drink a lot (She is 16) before she started to hang out with me and my friends.

Anyway, last time I visited her she seemed so sad that I asked if something was wrong, and she told me that she felt really down because of stuff that happened in her past. She didn't want to tell me what it was, and she told me she was going to start seeing the counselor again. She had apparently been fine for a while and thought she had overcome whatever it was that happened, but she hadn't. And she said to me that the only one that could fix this was herself, which I think is part of the problem.

I don't know what happened, and I don't know how to get her to open up for me. All I do know is that what she needs it not a counselor, what she needs is Jesus.

Warning: MATURE STUFF! (If you wouldn't read the mature prayer topics don't read this.)

On side of this I am struggling with my faith and the relationship, I told her that sex was out of the picture and she accepted it. But still we are sexually active, and as lost as I might be on this topic I think that all the sexual stuff was made for the marriage?..
So I feel so guilty and worthless, and I cannot count how many times I thought about breaking up because of this.
But still I can't force myself to do that, I know that it would make her feel even worse than she is right now. And I love her a lot as well, but I love Jesus more and I'm ready to do whatever it takes to fix this, I just don't know how. I would really like to talk with someone who got experience with stuff like this but I'm to scared to talk with someone IRL..

The conclusion I've come up to is that what I should do is probably to tell her that we cannot be sexually active at all, but I feel like a big loser to first say that sex is out of the picture, and then changing my mind telling her that I cannot be sexually active at all. I know this will most likely make it even harder for her though, because she will fear that we'll grow apart more and more.

This is just a big mess and I'm not really good at explaining this, but anyway, please pray for both her and our relationship.

Hey, don't judge relationship status on sex. Center every relationship on Jesus. That, or rather, HE, is what should be the commonality.

I'll be praying for you two! May the Lord direct your steps and open your eyes to see His work in all this.

God bless you!

I'm with Blip- don't judge a relationship status on sex. If she really likes you, then she'll accept that and stick with you. But if it makes you feel bad and worthless, then set a clear boundary and stick with it. Of course, you can ease her into that with an explanation that says it doesn't mean she isn't attractive, it's that if she's that special someone, then you want to wait until marriage to know that it'll be forever.

[MrKrillz0r]

I know I might make it sound like the relationship is about sex but its not. Actually thats a rather small part of our relationship but its making me worried because I don't know if its okey at all for a christian.

Anyway I'm gonna do my best to let Jesus be in the center of everything, 'cuz its not just the relationship I've been struggling with.

Thanks for praying!

Krillz, I'm praying for you buddy.

As for sex, I think that it should be saved for Marriage. Of course, that point could be argued until the cows come home. Which may never happen. But that's my perspective on it. Sex is a sacred thing and shouldn't be ruined. I know how hard it is to keep Jesus as our center and guiding force. Its easy to get lost in worldly thing. But whenever you feel yourself slipping, run to your Bible, pray and read. Focus on God until you feel He is re-centered.

^_^ My prayers are with you Krillz! God Bless.

I haven't had sex, and will not have it either (Before marriage). I already told her why and tried to explain, which I wasn't very good at. T_T But anyway, I just wanted to make sure ya didn't misunderstand. ^^ Thanks for praying Nami! Although that warning sign in my kitchen is still coming up.

[Wind]

Hey Krille I know what you are going through I am a mom because of having sex and it ended badly. Sex does nothing but Complicate life if its done incorrectly and improperly it only hurts people. I got really hurt. If you need a friend to lean on I am here for you and I am already praying and will keep praying for you.

I wasn't sure about what you meant so I tried to be as generic and yet related to the subject as possible. Sorry for the confusion.

I'll still be praying for you two.

God bless!

[MrKrillz0r]

Its no problem, I'm very bad at explaining and my english isn't the best either. Anyway, thanks for praying!
