Someone please help me..I'm a backslider

I've never done this before, don't even know if I'm doing it right. I've been trying for hours to find a way to get some help. I'm backslid and don't want to be. I'm so scared. I just need someone to talk to.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

For all of you who read this, please, please pray for maybell...She desperately needs all of us to join together and pray for her to find peace. Pray that she can find her way to believe that God loves her and that she can be forgiven and find her way back to God.

Please pray!!!

Re: Someone please help me..I'm a backslider

1 John 1:9 says, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."

If you have ANY sin in your life that you want God to forgive, just confess (admit) it to Him. That verse says that God is faithful and will forgive any sin and will cleanse from unrighteousness.

If you sincerely ask God, "God, be merciful to me and forgive all my sins," He will. That's really all there is to it. Then ask Him to help you live for Him.

P.S. When God forgives, He also forgets.

Maybell,

Just so you will know... you aren't alone in your struggle. Many of us here have been, at some point in our Christian walk, where you right now. We were out of fellowship with God and needed someone to pray with us, and, just as importantly, to listen to us. I know this because I am one of those people. Until just recent;y, I was where you are, apart from God, needing someone to pray with and for me. So, I did just what you are doing. I asked people to pray, and they did. And God answered. Over the past few weeks, I have seen the Lord move in my life in remarkable ways. The people here on AFF know how to pray... and to love. Almost a year ago, right after the death of my wife in Feb., I needed people to pray and they did. If they hadn't have prayed for me then, I doubt that I would be here to type this. But they prayed, and there have been some drastic changes for the better in my spititual life the last few months.

Be encouraged, Maybel. People are praying. And remember this, God is still your Father. He still loves you, and wants to renew fellowship with you. If there is anything I can do to help, please post here or send a Private Message. In the mean time, please know I am taking your request seriously and am praying for you.
