Undecided To Carry On

[prayman]

Hi folks after 25 years of being a Christian of building a prayer life, fasting life and stepping forward to minister, I look back at what I believed God was calling me into and my entire life has been impacted that I see it as if God has deserted me and my family, that all that I built my life on the Word that I sat under, under various ministries seems to have done nothing for me. There is too much evidence staring me in the face, family have deserted us and as for the church the experience has been such a bad one that I do not in any manner way and form want to be involved or even found in any kind of church. I do not see a way forward in being a Christian, God does not seem to be around, yes I know what the Word says but when I look at 25 years of desiring to serve God and when I stepped out to serve the furnace has gotten too hot, and I now realize that I am not ministry material. The effect on my family has been negative it has affected my marriage, my finances right up to my daughter's education, turned my family against me, led my church to desert me. I just do not see any point in carrying on pursuing a God who has not answered my prayers, life everyday has no purpose, no point I do not even want to get out of bed anymore to face a day that is just one miserable existence after another, the days just roll into one another. My prayer closet and the reading of the Word is just an empty experience I find no joy in my life. If you folks want to pray for me please go ahead but I have heard it all from every which way but nothing has made the difference. Thanks for all your prayers.

Lord we give you praise, we magnify your name. May the peace of GOD which passes all understanding, now abide with you, my brother in CHRIST. Job's wife advised him to curse GOD and die. Having read the end of the story, we know this would have prevented GOD's future blessings and restoration to his servant job. The race is not to the swift nor the strong, but unto him that endures until the end. Believe me, we are all being tested these days. The LORD says HE will never leave nor forsake you. Let GOD be true and every man a liar. Let us not put our confidence in mankind, but in the "Ancient Of Days". The GOD who formed the world's and asked no one for instruction or advice. Now when the load gets too heavy, ask the LORD to grant you contentment with godliness, which is great gain. Seek the LORD with all of your heart, cry before him day and night until you are comforted, then pick up your bed and W-A-L-K!
