It kind of hurts me to hear that something has made you cry, because I have been there, sadly mine was over a break up and friendship issues. I felt like I was being pulled in every direction with no relief in sight. I too had to take it to the Lord in prayer and it seriously worked. <BR/><BR/>I know I read this a little late but i am praying for your dad. I truly hope he is okay. You take care of yourself, young man, and don't let anyone steal your joy. <BR/><BR/>Peace.One Man’s Opinionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10369070920453105981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12180121.post-90724417075673429302008-11-21T17:30:00.000-05:002008-11-21T17:30:00.000-05:00Thanks for this post man.

It is crazy how things get so wild at times that we forget the easiest thing, which is to kneel and say a prayer. <BR/><BR/>I feel the same way as you right now... a lot of things going, leaving me just to go through the motions.<BR/><BR/>Funny thing, I said my prayer last night. I read your post today. Hmm... sounds like confirmation to me. <BR/><BR/>Where two or three are gathered... sounds like confirmation for you too.<BR/><BR/>You will get through my brother.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12180121.post-64578248618938930682008-11-21T10:24:00.000-05:002008-11-21T10:24:00.000-05:00I feel like, lately, I'm constantly there...I feel like, lately, I'm constantly there...Nobody not really...https://www.blogger.com/profile/04486066073903759496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12180121.post-23141898268271104812008-11-20T18:00:00.000-05:002008-11-20T18:00:00.000-05:00I know how you feel...I know how you feel...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14948903601663342276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12180121.post-48240936776851302352008-11-20T09:58:00.000-05:002008-11-20T09:58:00.000-05:00I don't do the whole religion/God thing nor do I w...I don't do the whole religion/God thing nor do I worry able things I can't control.

I'm at that place now and I'm figuring it like this - God has NEVER let me down before, I need to rest on that fact...just let my history with him be a witness, a testament even, to the hope that still lies within.Darius T.

Ever since I made that pact with myself, my life has been so much better, and I can go to bed every night with inner peace. You have the right idea Cocoa, all things work together for the good.
