Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we boast in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us. - Romans 5

Why did no one come to my aid when I needed it?

Why did everyone my age leave me?

Why are there no Christian friends there to support me next to me?

Why did my church split?

Why was there no fellowship at my church?

Why is everyone around me hurting in one way or another?

Why did no one reach out to me in college?

Why do I have to live so far from everyone?

Why are my non-believing friends more sincere and vulnerable?

Why can’t I find fellowship?

Why have I become one of the lost brothers of the 30 year legacy?

Why can I not accept myself?

Why will no one answer when I call out?

Why did I come to America?

Why has my family become so distant and foreign?

Why will no one be vulnerable to me?

Why will no one talk to me?

Why will no one lean on me?

Why do I try so hard?

Where is the love?


I'm almost going to give up...so close to giving up.
