Well, I am blessed by my wife, but if she passes first I may get a cat.
I have wished/prayed for my two grown children to find soulmates,
but at least they have not suffered the pain of unhappy marriage and divorce.
You have no good relationships with neighbors or fellow church members?

Such relationship is more like "situationship", occasional trading of greetings and favors, no emotional attachments.

I understand. We also have had trouble finding new friends, and our old friends and relatives have either died or live far away.
I encourage you to have the mind of Paul expressed in Philippians 3 & 4:

TOP #191: Christians should behave in accordance with what they have learned as they continue to learn God’s will/word. [Phil. 3:15-17] Paul cites himself as an example. Those who habitually sin indicate that their profession of Christ is false (cf. TOP #167 & 211).

TOP #192: Gentleness should be evident to all. [Phil. 4:5] This brief command is a fruit of the Spirit cited in GL 5:23 and is also found in 1Pet. 3:15.

TOP #193: Do not be anxious about anything, but instead pray to God. [Phil. 4:6-7] This is similar to TOJ #41: Do not worry.

TOP #194: Focus on the positive and put it into practice. [Phil. 4:8-9] As a song from the 1940s said, “Accentuate the positive, eliminate the negative…”. BTW, do you enjoy listening to good/beautiful/edifying music?

TOP #195: Learn to be content whatever the circumstances. [Phil. 4:11-13] God will enable believers to endure anything.

LIC, GWH :love:

She said to me straight out to turn on a radio station, around a certain time and listen to "People to People Ministries"
I did, and ever since my life started the new life in trust to God Father in risen Son, Jesus

How?

I heard from a certain man there, named Bob George, I am forgiven and remain that from God through Son, even if I sinned again.

When I first read this the name rang a bell but I couldn't place him. Last night I remembered . . . i had found him on the radio, I think while I was on my lunch break at work, years ago, I don't remember how long, but I remember how I was transfixed by his teaching, and how I knew it came from the word. His teaching was revolutionary in my life also! Got me pointed in the right direction.

Blessings!

Much love!

this one big thing I remember Bob George saying all the time
Don't take my word for it. Go read it yourself and trust God to reveal the truth to you. He wrote books, that I have read like
"Classic Christianity" "Complete in Christ" "Living above your circumstances" "Victory over depression"
Each book has been an amazing help in Father's love and mercy given for us all to choose to beleive it or not. I read and checked out and re-read, still read and see more than what I read priorly. Amazing love and mercy given us all to stand in thanksgiving and praise so deeply, no more time to even think about sin. For by thinking about sin I saw see I return to sin, me in the way of the done work again

Learn g this to remain 100% dependent on Father and Son. woe is me Isaiah 6:1-7
