Please Pray for me

[chrisrwashington]

Dear Lord, I have hit my limit, both mentally and physically. I have given all that I could. You have answered my prayers in the past, but this one is the 2nd most important (besides when I asked for forgiveness). Dear lord, Please let Andrea see that I truly love her, and that I am right for her. She is my life, she knows I love her, she knows I love her. And I wish that her father would see that to. Please help me lord, I am flying to her, even though she doesn't want me too, but I have to lord, I will need so much help lord, seeing as I don't have money, and a place to stay. Lord, please help her, and her father realize that I truly love her with all of my heart, and I cant let her go, its impossible Lord. I cant move on, because I could never love anyone as much as I love her. Lord please, I have done everything I can, she loves me and I love her, and that should be all that matters. PLEASE GOD, PLEASE HELP ME

I know that her dad only wants whats best for her, but I can not help that I am not rich, I have worked extremely hard in my life to have what I have, and I am proud that I have made it this far. But asking her to marry some guy she doesnt love right before you enter into major surgery isnt right.

Re: Please Pray for me

Why don't you tell us about this Andrea girl, friend? Share your testimony with us, that we might include the details in our Prayers.

What church do you attend? How old are you and Andrea?

Re: Please Pray for me

We both are 18, and we have been seeing each other for a couple of months, but I have known she was the one for me since day one. She is amazing, and so perfect, and everything I have been praying for since I can remember.

But her dad recently had a heart attack and he asked her to marry one of his friends sons. "so that she can be happy" but she doesnt love the guy, But she promised that she would before he had surgery. (he had a heart attack shortly after he found out about me) so she is blaming herself and her family is blaming her.

So she broke it off with me, and wont even talk to me, i am going to where she lives in a couple of days, i wont have a place to stay or a job, but i am hoping and praying that she will realize that i love her and if living on the streets in downtown is what it takes for how ever long it takes then so be it.

(she is the only one that I have ever been in love with, and I do mean love, not lust. I care for her deeply, she has made me comfortable about myself after many years of not being. I can not imagine being with someone else)

I currently go to two churches a Baptist and ARP

Well 18 is mighty young. Why aren't you over in Iraquistan sending terrorists to hell?

Re: Please Pray for me

I agree. What is she, Pakistani? Is this some kind of arranged marriage?

I think the thing to do is fly to her and explain how you feel. Go to the hospital or to the wedding with that other guy and refuse to leave until she hears you out. The family might be a little hostile, so use the 2nd amendment to your advantage and have a little protection just in case, or to get her attention so that she will just listen. After all, that's all you ask for: for her to just listen. That is perfectly reasonable and if you have to waive a little metal around to get their attention, then do it. It's a tactic that works and it's not dangerous if they choose to be reasonable and give you a chance to explain.

God is love, so they say, and so I believe with all my heart. If you are right for her, He will see that and He will protect you.

Then, enlist in the Army WITHOUT DELAY!! No matter how it goes down at the hospital they will be glad to have you and if you are not over there defending your country from the Muslims then you don't deserve her.

And register to vote. If Obama wins you might not get the chance to impress her with your bravery in Sadr City.

Re: Please Pray for me

I agree, thats what i am going to be doing, I am just waiting for a bit because I know she is not doing well, and her dad is not doing well, I care for her so I am waiting til next week, i am trying to line up housing and a job, because I dont want to be homeless having to sleep on the streets in chicago, but if thats what it takes then so be it.

As far as joining to military, i cant, I have already tried, medical condition is preventing me, but I wish I could.

Son, I hope you aren't having pre-marital sex with that young lady.

Re: Please Pray for me

No, we are both against it

Re: Please Pray for me

If the dad is doing badly, then there probably will be even more effort by the family to keep you away in this "difficult time" when all you want to do is talk. All the more reason to protect yourself with a little .22 caliber protection, just in case they get out of hand and just won't listen.

I am glad you are keeping your body pure, as Jesus wants. As soon as you are married you are free to do what you want, and her body will be yours. Imagine your beautiful honeymoon. But that's not going to happen if they won't just let you explain how much she means to you.

I know you love her and want to be with her (in every sense of the word). 1 Corinthians 7:8-9 says that if you burn with passion for someone, you should get married. Paul says something along similar lines later in Ch 7. "If anyone thinks that he is not behaving properly toward his betrothed, if his passions are strong, and it has to be, let him do as he wishes: let them marry--it is no sin."

God wants this for you. Good luck, son!

Re: Please Pray for me

Friend, I believe the Bible might have an answer for you. Read 1 Samuel 18:20-28. David was once in the same situation you are in.

Young David was in love with King Saul's daughter Michal, but King Saul wasn't too keen on David. Sometimes David would just be sitting there playing his harp and minding his own business, and Saul would just pick up a javelin and throw it at David to try to kill him. This happened on more than one occasion. If this girl's father hasn't thrown a javelin at you yet, then your situation isn't as bad as David's was.

Anyway, David didn't have any money to pay a dowry, so King Saul told him that he would take 100 Philistine foreskins as payment. David smiled, drew his sword, and came back with 200 Philistine foreskins.

Maybe you should go to the mountain region between Afghanistan and Pakistan, and come back with 200 terrorist foreskins as a present for her father. I know you said that the military won't take you, but maybe you could get a job as a civilian contractor. That girl's father will certainly be impressed. I know I would be.

Re: Please Pray for me

With all of this hardship and surgery you talk about, someone must have done something to offend the Lord? Are you sure you didn't "slip it to her" just once maybe?

God frowns on young ones like yourself if they even dry-fornicate. Did the tip slip in son, just for a second? Be honest boy!

And I know for a fact that using the hands or the mouth by either of you offends the Baby Jesus something AWFUL!!! And you remember what happened to Onan:

Genesis 38:8-10
And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto thy brother's wife, and marry her, and raise up seed to thy brother.

And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in unto his brother's wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest that he should give seed to his brother.

And the thing which he did displeased the LORD: wherefore he slew him also.

So how many ways did you offend Jesus boy? Did you get your pinky all stinky with innocent little Andrea?

Re: Please Pray for me

You haven''t said why the Dad and the famiily seem so set against you..

Do we have some Catholic or minority issues here, that you haven't mentioned ??

Re: Please Pray for me

Brother Alex, the .22 is certainly a noble American round but for these purposes this would be more appropriate.
