I had that same problem for years, but recently God opened my eyes to something that was right under my nose all this time and I still can't believe I didn't think of it earlier because it's such a no-brainer. I believe He will show you too when its time...

Do not fear Death, embrace it. Only when we embrace our mortality do we truly start living. Go forth my friends, make your mark on history.
But if you give them to yourself you don't have to make up an excuse for why they are late. Yourself understands. =^.^=

i must have clarity of the image I MUST!
There's nothing to read. Its a TV commercial from the 80's for Eggo waffles.
I just had a small miracle happen! (I don't know how else to explain it)
Something very strange just happened. I'm calling it a miracle. I was cleaning between the seats of my car when a coin got wedged in the seat track and it was stuck in a way that made it impossible to get out and it locked the seat into the furthest setting so I couldn't drive the car.
I could barely reach the coin reach with my fingertips and couldn't get it to budge at all. It was wedged in at the top and wouldn't slide left or right. The space was so tight that I couldn't get any tools in there and I couldn't remove the seat because it was blocking the seat bolts.
After an hour of trying everything I could, I was panicking and started praying hard to God to show me how to fix this because I couldn't even drive it to the mechanic. I also prayed for forgiveness of anything that I might have done to upset the Lord.
During my prayer I got the idea of using a small key so I went looking for one in the garage and when I got back I once again felt for the coin and couldn't seem to find it with my fingertips so I bent over to try and look and saw a quarter sitting on the floor. I thought I just didn't notice it before. It was impossible to see where the stuck coin was. I tried feeling for it again and couldn't feel it anywhere along the track. I decided to try and move the seat because it still could move a couple notches and to my total surprise the seat moved all the way forward! The coin on the floor was the one that was wedged in! It somehow popped out all by itself while I was in the garage!

I'm feeling particularly lonely tonight. And I have to be honest that it has nothing to do with Valentine's day. Even when I was in my last relationship, my then boyfriend never once got me anything or made any gestures. So, I'm used to spending the day alone and really am not stressing about it...
I'm at a weird spot in my life. I moved to a new city less than a year ago b/c of my job (which i love). But, my community is filled with people 55 plus. It's a wealthy suburb where if people aren't old, then they're younger and married with kids. I don't drink, smoke, and I don't do clubs. My days are filled with crazy work shifts. When I'm off, I just sit at home. I don't have any close friends except one person (she's married with 2 very young kids). I feel a disconnect from my would be church home b/c every sermon focuses on families. I feel left out.
I'm struggling to wonder what the Lord would have me do next with my life. I feel lost. I want a Christ-centered husband and children. I want close friends. Yet, I feel lost in this wilderness. I wonder why I'm here at all..
I could move anywhere and can move back down to FL to be closer to my family...But I don't feel at peace with doing that. yet, the loneliness is audible...it's a struggle.

I'm so sorry to hear you're experiencing this struggle with loneliness. I will say a prayer for you. Everyone goes through stages of loneliness but it is so hard especially if your geographically isolated from family.
Just a thought but have you tried to find a volunteer opportunity? It is such a great way to feel a sense of purpose and get connected into a new community in ways we couldn't imagine.
Thank you chickwithsticks.
I'm an emergency room doctor and my schedule is just so crazy and erratic. I thought about looking into opportunities to volunteer but it's so hard to commit to days xyz per week b/c my schedule changes day to day, week to week, and is never consistently the same. Even my days off are not consistent.
I feel very lost in life now. Professionally, I'm at a great spot. But seeing the same 4 walls every day, and having no one to spend time with, hurts. I recently started following a great christian author, Lisa Terkeurst, on facebook. Reading her daily posts and has helped to give me some perspective and how I should be approaching Christ during this time.
I'm not sure what I should be praying for now. The loneliness never seems to leave me.
Have you ever listened to Joyce Meyers? There was a time about 4 years ago that for about 2 months I would have one of her videos streaming any time I was alone. It was so helpful and immensely comforting at the time.
I can only imagine your schedule constraints but possibly find a church that offers wed, sat evening and Sunday services so depending on your schedule you can attend service? Might be helpful to have flexibility and know your options for the upcoming week?
Keep praying and lay it at His feet..He will lead you through this.
