People okay without me

I feel like people move on and it's just a natural part of life...

@Anonymous Yes but also a true and real friend can be closer then your own family sometimes you have to lose people to earn someone better trust god plan Proverbs 18:24 which states, "A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.".

@Notfun Maybe even brothers (and those who stick closer than one) can move on. But if you'd say otherwise, the only friend I can think that would fit that verse is God -- it seems like everyone else is guaranteed to move on. Arguably, a different relative might also fit the verse, like a spouse or something, but I know even a partner wouldn't "need" me either, and I don't intend on getting into any relationships either... Maybe a different relative, like a parent, would fit the verse for me? Idk

@Anonymous I think you were right on the first part the person that verse fits the most is god I’m having a hard time too I was thinking about doing a 3 day fast if you wanna join I hope I don’t fail no drinking or eating until 6pm and when I break my fast no dairy or anything from animals

@Notfun Do you mean that each of the three days you won't eat until 6PM, then the next day you won't eat until 6PM again? Or you won't eat at all for 3 days straight until 6 on the final day?

@Anonymous No the first thing you said my body can’t handle fasting for 3 days fully praying one day I will

@Notfun Okay, I was going to say that three days straight was a long time! What day are you going to start?

@Anonymous Tomorrow you wanna join

@Anonymous People do that in my church for the Jonah fast but you have to Work to that you can’t do that out of nowhere you would get sick

@Notfun I normally would say that I shouldn't fast for my own reasons (in the past I fasted so much that I lost way too much weight, and I need to re-learn an appropriate way to fast), but considering that I'm concerned for some people at the moment, sure I'll fast with you. I might only do the first day or two, or I might do all three. And I'll probably fast until dinner, instead of the set time of 6PM. Thanks for inviting me by the way :)

@Anonymous Ofc anytime

@Notfun I've been fasting today, but I'm having difficulties. Unfortunately, I've been upset with God the last few years, and that's making it difficult today to fast. Hopefully God won't let bad things happen to the people I care about as a way to punish me for being upset. So, I'm thinking about just fasting for the day and then being done, but I'll of course still support you as you continue to fast. I feel bad about not doing more, especially since I was praying for others.

@Anonymous Aw thank you may god reveal himself to your and his mercy may I ask what god your refusing to

@Anonymous Any chance you can tell me why your upset with him

@Anonymous No you did all that you could thank you

@Notfun For clarification, are you asking what I gave up as I fasted?

@Notfun I'm upset about a few things. First, I'm upset that Israel seems more special to God than a Gentile like me. I'm also upset about the bad things that happen in life

@Anonymous No I’m just asking why your mad at god and which god you believe in

@Notfun Oh, I believe in the Bible and in Jesus. How about you? What's your belief?

@Anonymous Oh he doesn’t love anyone more I promise you we are all equal to him I John 4:8) God loved the world and everyone in it so much that He gave His Only Begotten Son to die for their sins and make a way of redemption for each and every one of them. God loves all of us he doesn’t put one higher the other I promise that’s why he died for ours sins and god doesn’t do anything in our life to cause us pain if it does most likely the devil yes god let that thing happen to you but only because he has a plan bigger then what you see I know it’s hard trust me I’m kinda in the same boat but I’m not mad at god because he has a reason for it that we don’t know Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. Another verse Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. And here’s another verse John 13:7 Jesus answered and said to him, “What I am doing you do not understand now, but you will know after this.” I promise he loves you and wants you with him I knows it’s hard trust me may god be with you and bless you just think about it

@Anonymous Same

@Notfun I hear a lot that everyone is equal, but I also see Bible verses that make Israel look extra special. I know God allows bad things and uses them for good, but that still leaves really bad things to happen -- and I feel like I'm not supposed to be upset that really bad things happen, or even care.

@Anonymous No you can be upset but instead of being upset with god talk to him and tell him how you feel ask him to allow you to see his hand in this

@Notfun Ask him to reveal himself you you I promise at the right time he will show you why everything is the way it is just talk to him like your best friend tell him all that you have inside let it out here’s there to listen

@Notfun I just feel like I can't expect to keep happiness in this life, and I guess I can't, because I can always lose the things I care about. And I try to pray, but it never feels like He listens. Also, I hope you had a good second day of fasting!

@Anonymous I know it feels like he doesn’t listen I feel the same way right now but he does sometimes we can’t hear them

@Notfun Sometimes it’s to make us strong I have a question when was the last time you opened your bible

@Jesus Is King ☦️❤️ It's been a while since I last read my Bible, unfortunately. I needed a break from it a while back because all I saw were the depressing things in it, and I haven't gotten back into reading it. But I should get back into reading it. Sorry I didn't respond earlier, but I hope the fasting went alright! I see you changed your username

@Anonymous Yes thank you may you get back to the Bible

@Jesus Is King ☦️❤️ Thank you, I will try!
