Praise  the Lord ,

I have and haveing the exeprience of the lackness of love in the church, I
was born again when I was a teenager, I wnet to UPC that has cliques I was
the outcast. I felt very isolated from everybody else because I was
handicapped. I left UPC went over to trinty penencostal when I was in my
20's. I left my first husband and backslidded The UPC did not even make no
effort to get  me back. I went back sometimes trying to come back but it did
not last. I know we should not lean on others for our salvation but when u
are going a hardship in life that is when u need brothers and sisters to
hold u up until u are  strong to stand alone. I did not have that support.
So I was driven to backslidden. Now I came back in March 1998. I going to a
UPC where I live now. I am married also to a wonderful husband. I can go to
church and no one will know or cares to know what I go through. I am
struggleing to stay and hold on the hand of the Lord. My church that I go to
lack in love. I can go to any trinty penecostal and recieve love and praying
partner and fellowship and able to work for the Lord faster than my home
church where I lived. I really need to pray. We need to pray that the Lord
will baptize the UPC and all of the Others Apostlic churches with his real
love and teach his children how to care and love each other. We had being
away to long to the real meaning of what we ought to be with each other.
When someone comes they can be a christian along time, when we see them
struggling and feeling isolated we need to go to them and hold them up until
they are able to stand.  I have being walking my christian walk by myself, I
have a hard time to trust and care for others because the rejection I
recieved sometimes from the Brothers and sisters.
Please pray for me
