Prayer Requests

[Ethan_Burnkeep]

@Jacoby_Elderfun1 do you need and prayer.

When I first joined the forums I would look at your avatar and Just see the avatar.

But after you wrote you steping down from the community modership, I just would see your profile and feel sad.

I just feel like you may be sad or frustrated about some stuff.

Just something I was feeling.

@Ethan_Burnkeep
There is something. I'm not going to go into full details, but it has to do with one of my sisters. We would argue about foolish things and I believe it originated from my own selfishness and greed. I know God is helping me through it and I asked Him for forgiveness, but the devil has been trying to put me down by bringing it back up in my thoughts.

You've honestly gotta be kidding me though. I think the Spirit was speaking to you, man. That seems like a big God thing. You just making that post has given me encouragement. Thank you!

[Ethan_Burnkeep]

Your welcome man.

I'll be praying for you.

Help.

I’m so so so stressed right now. My dad isn’t doing the greatest, is to say the best. It’s not physically, but spiritually.

And he talks loud and when he’s not doing well, he talks about all this stuff like taxes that if you heard your dad and mom ‘discussing’ over this, well, for me, I feel like I’m losing my childhood and worrying more about these things than I would once I have my own house and things. Please pray

We're here for you ️

You'll have to grow up eventually, and growing up involves taking on a lot of responsibilities. However, if you're not ready for it, try to get some good headphones and listen to something else. I started a music-based Bible study if you want to focus on something else for a while.

Bible Study

Growing up should not require listening to adults yelling.

[Eerie_Coppernight]

I completely agree on that. It's why one should never hash out arguments on front of one's children.

[Ethan_Burnkeep]

Praying for you Crink..

Im dealing with stuff like that myself

[Lilliana_Umbrellascope]

I will you put you in my prayers as well. Just know you are not alone, we are here to support you

[Beckendorf_Direscope]

Guys I really need some prayer.

There's some crazy stuff going on at the moment.

**_

At school,

_**

None of my "friends" (except like two) really like me that much in class.

I go to a very small Christian school under a church.

I get made fun occasionally and feel very sad a lot.

Recently I had friends made a LOT of false accusations (including my teacher) It's mostly me, but almost all the boys in my class feel this way. Most of the time our teacher will accuse us (and a lot of times she's been wrong)
and we almost NEVER have a chance to defend ourselves.

It's been really tough on me recently

At Home,

I've been having a lot of trouble with parents and "Growing Up" kinda thing.

Just arguments and Restrictions and stuff in that area.

(Quick Recap: While I was gone for those like 9-10 months (Jan.-Nov.) , Our family moved into a new house, I used to go to a small/but big enough Christian Private school under a decently large church. I was bullied for about 2 and half years before we moved even though this was a Christian school.But this school had some interesting events for example (to sum it up) One of my friends had lost his dad because his dad wanted to lead his family to Christ, but struggled with abuse, and committed suicide. At one point during last or the one before the last year I left that school, this kid attempted suicide. (that's all I'm gonna say) Thankfully he did not die and is still alive. That's a quick recap)

Concerning My old School,

Ok so at one point last year, I got a google chat message FROM THE KID WHO BULLIED me saying hey Me and some of the other boys really miss you and I am sorry for bullying you before. (I have been in contact with only 3 kids from my old school). Ok well I'm glad he said that so I started staying in touch, and felt like he wasn't gonna be mean anymore, even over google chat.
So at some point I was having a video meet with my best friend from that school and he gave me some crazy information=
School has changed a lot since I left, In a BAD way.
(Me=Uh. Oh.)

He tells me he gets Cussed out from the kid that used to bully me but is "nice to me now" and the other kid I was staying in contact with!

(ME=WHAT!?!?!?)

Not only that the kid that attempted suicide is now suspended from school because he did something inappropriate.

(OH MY GOODNESS)

Just please pray for me and these other kids a my former and current school.

If you ever need someone to talk to, there's always the Aethasian Underground. It sounds as if you're going through a lot.

[Jayhawk_Greencape]

Praying. We can talk in game or on Chess if you need to. :0)

[Rex_Blackdash]

Ethan, praying for you. If it helps any -- at least on the subject of being bullied -- it doesn't matter what others think, it only matters what God thinks, so if they say stuff bad about you don't listen. Say to yourself that God loves you, therefor it doesn't matter what they think.

Those are my thoughts.

[Ethan_Burnkeep]

I agree with you on that Rex, I've been trying to work on it.

[Eerie_Coppernight]

That's one of the lovely things about growing up, Ethan. You realize that everyone has problems of their own and it is their responsibility to deal with them. If someone else has made your problems their business, you are well within your rights to look them in the eye and tell them to shut their babble-spewing pie hole.

These people who are being so cruel to you are desperately in need of Jesus. Why they have singled out you as their target, I cannot say. However, there are steps you can take to stop them from bothering you.

I would recommend you take up a highly physical sport, preferably a martial art of some form or another. You may never need to use it, but it will give you the confidence to stare down those who bother you.

Note on choosing a martial art: Never judge a dojo by the trophies in the window.

I NEVER DO THAT FOR ANYTHING

I do play basketball but I'll put this into thought.

Good for you. :0)

Krav Maga is the best self-defense/martial art in my opinion. I’m learning it irl and it is pretty dangerous.
