Life is wonderful again

Postby Kaiwano » Thu Aug 19, 2004 5:42 pm

Just recently, I felt very down. I'm at a new school, and one of my friends I made here is homesick. So homesick that she used to start the mornings by crying. On top of that, I made something I seriously regret and wish I had never done, I commited a serious sin. (Had nothing to do with my friend that is homesick.) I don't know if it was those two things hanging on me or something else that made me ill, but ill I got, with fever and throatache.

I spoke to friends I've found here at CAA about it, and I prayed to God to forgive my sin, and heal my sickness. Many of my friends did also pray for me, I know it not just because they told me, but also because I felt it.

As the forgiving God He is, He helped me by giving me the strength to straighten things out with the other persons involved in my sin, and they forgave me too. After this, I felt better from my sickness, because I had only one thing left to worry about. I went to my homesick friend because I had not seen her for a day or two when I was ill. I spoke to her and she told me she felt better too, and that her boyfriend will stay over this weekend. That will hopefully weaken her homesickness, and she will be able to stay at this school and be my friend.

So, everything went ok. And as I said before to one of my very special friends helping me when I was feeling down; Again, I thank God for my existance in this world. Right now I love my life, my friends and God.

I used to think death was the end
But that was before
I'm not scared anymore
I know that my soul will transcend"

It was nice to hear your message. ^-^ I am happy that everything is getting better now. Home sick ness is a terrible feeling, and guilt for a sin is also bad one, it's so wonderful how God forgives us!! I am also happy that people you met here could help you.

So am I. I'm still praying for you that you can find someone in your day-to-day life that can fellowship with you also. But I'm glad you're still here with us. :)

I'm so glad your feeling better. Everyone commits sin, all we can do is ask for forgiveness and move on. It's amazing what God can do to help heal people and lift their burdens off thier shoulders. And I am so happy that your friend is feeling a lot better. I say this all the time, but friends are very important and precious. It's good that everyone is doing okay now. Praise.

Thanks for your honesty in sharing with us! God is great isn't he? No matter how dirty we get he will always pick us up and dust us off when we come back to Him.

Bless you :)
