HEALING AND RENEWAL
Lord Jesus Christ,
most Holy Redeemer,
you make all things new.
Your word promises:
Whoever is in Christ has become a new creation.
The old has passed away;
behold the new has come.
Renew us, and heal us with your love.
Make new my mind:
let me see life and death,
time and eternity,
this world and beyond,
with the eyes of faith.
Make new my will:
let me walk more loyally
in the way of your commandments.
Renew us, and heal us with your love.
Make new my heart:
let me love your truly
and love others for your sake.
Make new, Lord Jesus, my whole life:
let there be no more sin,
no more compromise,
but only devotion to you.
Renew us, and heal us with your love.
I bring to you, dearest Lord,
my life and it is, my hopes and dreams,
my struggles and pains,
my fears, anxieties and addictions,
my hurts, my talents,
my achievements, my disappointments
and my sickness.
I bring to you all whom I love.
I entrust all to you
and with confident faith I take heart;
for you make all things new.
Renew us, and heal us with your love.

Amen.
 
thank you all so much for your prayers, especially you tbcrawford - I really appreciate everything you’ve done.
I’m still hurting a lot but I’m getting better and putting my trust in the Lord. If me and my ex are supposed to be then one day we will be reunited, and if not I will find someone better…one day.
I went shopping yesterday with a friend who I like and I think likes me but its complicated so I don’t really know what to do about it? I have prayed a lot though so I guess it’ll work out if its supposed to.
I also went out for some drinks last night, a kind of “ladies night” as it was just me and four other girls. I had a fun night but I’m only close to one of them. She has a long term boyfriend and although she doesn’t take rubbish from people shes a really nice person. The other three are nice enough but not really my kind of people, they sleep around, get revenge on people they don’t like, gossip, etc. Granted I sometimes gossip myself (never to the extent they do though) and I obviously sin in other ways but I don’t understand society today. So many girls my age or similar age have had multipule partners and think its the best way to be. I really don’t want to be like that and know I won’t be but so many of the guys are like that too. For example my friend who I like, he’s not religious at all and I know hes slept around a lot but he is a really nice person and it was his reaction to his heart being badly broken a couple of years ago (this is how we became better friends and feelings started to develop for him because he understands what I’m going through and is helping me deal with things). I’m scared that if something happens between us he’ll expect me to sleep with him. I know he would never preassure me into doing somehting or anything like that but (especially where I am from) people who are similar age to me with similar interests never ever seem to have similar morals to me, and the ones who have similar morals always seem to be the fundamentalists who I find to be too extreme and more damaging in a way than those who don’t believe in much or in anything. So basically I don’t understand how I’m going to meet someone who is likeminded to me or what I should do?
thanks everyone
God bless and Merry Christmas xxx
 
Time heals. I’ve been through many painful times in my life, God has always seen me through them, I know He’ll see you through this trail. I know how it feels to have a “friend” spread lies about you, for someone you trusted to tell others the worst about you. Its very painful, it hurts alot. But remember, God is there for you to cry to. He sees all those tears you shed that no one else sees. When no one else understands you, He does. He’s here for you now. The tiny little baby in the manger wants to comfort you and help you. I pray you trust Him enough to let Him heal your pain.
 
I think you need to cut your ex out of your life, it will help you to get over him.

My dear friend you are very welcome.My goodness what a positive post this is.I am so pleased for you that you are keeping busy and making other friends…good on you girl!!!
You know,there is a lot of pressure on people nowadays to sleep around etc because moral standards seem to have declined generally with ex 'adult sex industry models’being role models for girls. and it being perfectly acceptable.Jordan aka Katie price ring a bell?
I think the thing to remember when you meet new people or this friendship may develop into more is
1.take things slowly because you have just come out of a relationship and you are not ready for a serious relationship again yet.
2.By being friends first for a nice long while you establish ground rules of morals etc.You get to know each other really well and respect each other.
3. A guy will really respect you and grow to really love you deeply by you not being the sort to sleep around and ‘save’ yourself.
I am really pleased to read of your positive attitude.Well done.God is helping you through.Never forget He loves you!!! My thoughts and prayers are with you.Happy Christmas and Happy New Year !! xx

Thanks for your prayers, please keep praying for me. I’m sick of feeling upset and really angry whenever I wake up.
God bless

Loving God please encourage milletsmo to seek help for the causes of these symptoms of distress and anger upon awakening. Symptoms are the person’s body and brain’s way of crying out for healing and help. Help her not to make choices that will lead to another round of unhappiness. Help her to first of all work for physical, emotional, and mental recovery and growth.
Please embrace and protect her in Your merciful love
