Troubles with Friends

Submitted by blanca-fan1221 on June 04, 2009.

ok, i just had 2 let this out ( if it seems boring or anything u dont have 2 read it, dont wanna put that on u). anyway, i've got some christion friends of course and we all luv God and everything but at school they r so wrong. cussing & fighting & lying behind each others backs which leads to more cussing & fighting. and my church friends r really distrating. i mean theres nothing wrong with them its just that havent had a sermin ( i think i spelled that wrong) in like over a month without her or them messing with my ipod or talking to me or whatever. everything really is distracting me from God. the only real time i have with Him is when im listening 2 G1c ( which is really helpful) or saying my nightly prayers ( helpful but not with sleep) . so if u read this i want u to tell how true it is, how dumb i am or whatever. i luv God and this is true so hit me with ur best shot!

You aren't alone. Alot of my friends are the same way. I try to talk to them about how they act but it dont work mainly. I have kinda got one girl to come back to the Lord and she is better now but not all of them. Just pray for them that God will stir their hearts. PRAYER DOES WORK!! Maybe not a quickly as we want it but it does.

GOD is you life!
KEEP HIM FIRST!!

Hey girl, whatsup? Has something changed?

My best shot... I'm praying for you! Whats your real name blanca-fan1221?
I also have friends like yours. It's sad and I'm praying for them. I don't really have advice for you, because Im in the same thing and Idk what to do either. But I do have more real time with Him. Like.. after school or whenever I want to talk with God, I go to my room and close the door. Read the Bible, Worship Him and have some Daddy-Daughter time with Him. You could also do that if you want! :)

It feels really good to have someone care like that. I feel really alone sometimes. I love to read my Bible ,but I have difficulty rememering to ( Im not just saying that as an exuse). Oh, my real name's Lauren. Very, Very shy Lauren. Thax so much for your support!

ah Ok Lauren! Don't be shy (lol, I know its hard. Its much easier to say but trying not to be shy feels good!)
Please Keep me updated

peace - Rachel

My friends are always fighting over something! One of them kept thinking that her sister was wearing her jean jacket and kept trying to make her change jackets through the whole session! The music minister had to shush us down! And of course one of them was playing something on my iPod and my mom had to quite us! Ugh, they are really loud! I really need to tune down right now. Peace Out*-Lauren

Wow your friends are pretty childish.. and this all happened in Church?

They can be.... weird....I dont know the word that really describes them. ;D
*~Lauren~*

wow, they do seem really childish, ill be praying 4 u, Lauren.

I know, itll be hard to talk to your friends about doing stuff in a way that will be pleasing to God, bc theyll obviously think that they're ok, but maybe try to just slip things into what you say. Like if u guys are talking about something good that happened or something like that, u could even say like "that's sweet, I prayed about that and it worked out" or something less cheesy, but u get the idea.

if u just slip in stuff like that in your speech, itll force them to think about God more than usual and the Holy Spirit could work through that to help change them. But don't give up!!!

peace out, man

That's some awesome advice. thx! this is really getting my hopes up! :)
