Title: Friend needs help
Post by: Sweetness88 on September 25, 2003, 09:21:13 PM
 :-[Hellllp! My friend recently had this really hard breakup with a guy, and it may seem small compared to some things but shes' really depressed over it.
But that's not why. She's really began to doubt God and is now thinking of becoming an atheist. Please pray for her to go the right way, thanks.

Don't worry Sweetheart, she is only thinking of becoming an atheist because of her disappointment and heartbreak.  
It is our pleasure to pray for her.

Love...Tamara.

I understand what you're going through completley.  This is kind of the opposite, but when my friend hooked up with an athiest guy, she began to doubt her faith too.  Let me assure you, however, that a bond you make with God is a strong one.  You cannot break it unless it is the ULTIMATE circumstance (meaning, you're REALLY REALLY angry).  A lost relationship is not gonna make her lose her spiritual promise.  God is more attached than that.  In the meantime, be sure to be there to support her.  Remind her of how good God is.  With my friend, we had a three person bible study(herself, myself, and an additional friend).  When she usually just went for a Starbucks Hot Chocolate and some gossip, she heard a lot about God's great promises.  I know 30 mins. b4 school might not seem like much, but trust me, they go a long way.  Those words will be popping up in her head until she goes to sleep that night.  Lastly, (sorry, I nkow this is really long), every Christian doubts God every once in a while.  We are human, we tend to wander and fall astray, why else would we need a sheperd to guide us?  Keep praying for her and nuge her in the right direction, and God will do the rest of the work  ;).
