I recently decided that I needed to leave a Christian forum, because the place was hurting me...
...there was always someone or someones that would tell me, that my problems is my fault....I tried to have a thick skin but it happened for so many months that I couldn't stand it anymore...
i gotta wonder if those are like really old, and youve changed since then? You hardly strike me as the type to incite such stuff now tbh.Here's some of the things people have said about me in various forums over the years
im surprised that you got any comments on a blog, if anything? mine avg about 1/3 of a comment per blog lolI'm looking for a place that I can fit in with. I don't have many friends in real life or online. I guess I'm just a little different, or something. For that reason I often blog about things. Many times it's just things that I need to get off my chest.
The reason why I'm asking for prayer is because I recently decided that I needed to leave a Christian forum, because the place was hurting me. Mind you, I am not new to Christian Social Media, but I've never been treated this before.
In the book of Job, Job was being inflected, and his friends set around him, giving him wrong advice. By the end of the book of Job, God makes those friends repent, and Job had to pray for them.
I don't want you to get the wrong impression that I'm comparing myself to Job. But what I am trying to say is, the way those people were treating my blogs, was a lot like how Job's friends treated him!
If I blogged about a problem I was having, no matter what the problem was, there was always someone or someones that would tell me, that my problems is my fault. And it seemed like that was the consensus of the entire forum. I guess they felt that Christians should always be positive or something. I tried to have a thick skin but it happened for so many months that I couldn't stand it anymore.
I ask that you will pray that God will help me with these problems, and help me to fit in around here. I hope you can believe me, but I'm not joining here to cause trouble.
I have somethings that I would like you to pray about. And if possible, I would like to make some online friends.

Hello AOAJ and Welcome. I trust you will find a few friends here. And no, it is not always your fault if things go sideways. There are always other forces at work.I'm looking for a place that I can fit in with.
You've saved all these? why have you bothered?Here's some of the things people have said about me in various forums over the years, but I honestly think it's funny and it gives me a laugh..:)

You've saved all these? why have you bothered?
Humans it seems do not/can not resist self glorification..
All the religions of the world have a focus on self......even Christianity at large has this focus with 'the spirit, the spirit'
..Really all I want is that you pray that I will have a better time on these forums then I did there...
:)I take Oscar Wilde's view- "If there's anything worse than being talked about, it's NOT being talked about"..:)
Sure, I've saved the troll attacks on me to give myself a laugh, I'd hardly call it "self-glorification"!
I could post a long list of positive feedback I get from people if you like,for example-
"Mick, your posts have made me pick up a bible for the first time in years".
As regards being focussed on self, yup, saving ourselves should be top priority before trying to save others..:)-
"Work out your own salvation.." (Philippians 2:12)
Jesus said- "The work God requires is to believe in the one he has sent" (John 6:29 )
Hi @AlwaysOnAJourney Good to see you on the forums. Hebrews 12 is a great passage; verse 2 exhorts those who love and trust the Lord Jesus to keep "looking unto Jesus" (verse 2).I'm looking for a place that I can fit in with. I don't have many friends in real life or online. I guess I'm just a little different, or something. For that reason I often blog about things. Many times it's just things that I need to get off my chest.
