Life Problems

[mannyefx]

Guys i dont know if this is the right place for this but here goes. I am having serious problems with my life in the area of moving my life forward or waiting for Gods will.
My will is to be a successful business man with a wife and kids simples. I love the simple life a lot. But for some reason i have been stuck for the past 12 years. I mean it is like my life is in reverse. I seem to be living my life backwards instead of forwards.
I just dont get it anymore. I’ll be 30 on the 21st of February and i have noting to show for it.
I work really hard at work. I am one of those guys who would work through the night to make sure the company moves forward.
I just dont know what i have to do in this life. I dont even know what God wants from me.
My hope is fading fast and if i could move just one step forward in my life i will make such a huge difference.
Is any one going through the same problem?

Never let your hope fade. Things don’t always go the way we want. I mean if you have faith it will be ok. I have had no luck in finding any women in my life but I know it will come in time. You could try to move to a different company, because sometimes we need to do somethings for ourselves God will always be there to help us but we sometimes need to make the move.
God bless I will keep you in my prayers.

I think virtually everyone on this forum can empathize with you in one way or another. Let me ask you this: Had you already achieved what you wanted to at this point, would you be on this forum seeking God’s will? I have gone and am going through something similar to you.

Every time God takes me somewhere I had no desire to go, I grow and learn stuff about myself, my faith and God that I could have never learned otherwise. You’re not alone and you are in the right place. Listen to God and go where he guides you.

Dear mannyefx.

At least you have a job I have currently less than you do, no home of my own, no money, no job, no boyfriend anymore… and I’m also going to be 30 too soon - which I think is still more of a problem for a woman than for a man.

But I feel okay… Like Jesus said: You cannot add one day to your life by worrying. Worrying is time badly spent dear brother. You are only 29. RELAX

Dear, I think all of us who approached this age, went through similar thoughts…Do not wait upon GOD’s will…Surrender onto His Mercy and Grace. Do not be weak of Faith, but Know as you have surrendered your life into His hands…He will bless your life and help you attain those wishes, which you most want…

Being successful in life is not important, because this human life you are trapped in…is your time in Creation, to be spent in finding, surrendering, worshipping and glorifying GOD…so that once this life ends here…you return to GOD’s Home.

Success and money are things, you cannot take with you.

Go to Church and annoit your head and face in holy water, kneel and pray to GOD. He hears all your thoughts…Surrender completely unto Him and ask Him to take the reins of your life. In this Faith, He will guide you forward…stay in the Church for how ever many hours, until you are at peace and His love fills your heart.

Do not worry so, "Jesus said “Who of you by worrying, can change anything?”

Be in the quiet, listen to GOD in your heart, where He resides, surrender completely and you will be found…GOD bless you.

I first had similar desires and frustrations at round about the same age (I was 28). My career, although ok, wasn’t satisfying me and I wasn’t finding the wife-and-kids that I would have loved to despite having no particular desire or inclination to go out and find her/them!

Then I started to pray a lot. I got more involved in the Church. I took much more of an interest in God.

And then it suddenly clicked into place…

All this time, the reason why none of it had satisfied me was that in the back of my mind there was a better path, just waiting to be followed. Something that, once I realised it, was a path illuminated by love, by service, by fulfilment and joy. Something I knew that, once achieved, would define my life and be more worthwhile than anything else I could imagine.

I discovered that the reason I felt unsatisfied and unsuccessful was that I’d been suppressing, for many years, a desire to become a priest.

I’ve not managed to fulfil that wish as yet, but I was accepted by my diocese and I’m just waiting for the right practical moment to commence.

Ask yourself the question: would that be a good life for you? Would it make you feel whole in a way you haven’t thought of before?

Don’t worry if the answer is no, it’s not for everyone, but it’s always worth asking the question if only to put your life into context.
