I approach on bended knee.

[MatthewFive]

Hello, my name is Kevin and I'm kind of new to the whole fellowship/companion thing. I must begin by saying that I haven't gone to church in many years except for one night a couple months back.

I've been, I guess, in denial for several years that God is watching over my actions and have grown angry at circumstances in life until one evening about a week ago I was finally able to realize that the anger that I saw in everything around me was God smacking me in the face and telling me to listen.

I am currently lost and confused and trying to simply find a way through my own turmoil as I show compassion to others about theirs.

Matthew 9:36 says "When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd." -NIV

With that in mind, I took it upon myself to be the bearer of burdens and try to show compassion in others suffering, simply because I felt it was the right thing to do, but as I reflect back on it I've come to realize that I've been drawing myself deeper and deeper into resentment for the people I'm trying to help simply because they either don't care or lack the ambition to help themselves.

So, I hope that's a good introduction and I thank everyone for having this place available.

Welcome!!

Welcome!

Not everyone can be helped, or want help on their own terms. If people have no time for the word of God, then there is not much you or I can do anyway.
There are always people to help, and it's easy to get to wrapped up on someone that really is not ready to receive Godly help, but want only help they think they need. It's time to move on.

Enjoy your time here.

Jesus Is Lord.

Hello Matthew.

On bended knee, is there any other position?

Perhaps, face down before the King of Kings.

A broken and contrite heart He will not despise, Kevin. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Humble yourself and He will exhult you. Cry out to God and He will deliver you from all your troubles.

Welcome to this place. May you find rest here. In Jesus' name I pray...

 

[MatthewFive]

Thank you for the replies. It's only been less than a day and already I've talked to 3 different people who welcomed me and congradulated me on finding Jesus...it's funny though, he was standing right next to me the whole time.
