Promises I can make with God.


Question Posted Tuesday February 20 2007, 9:31 pm

Hello! I really like this guy. Today I saw him, it was the first time in a while. He is 15, and I am 13. I know, you can't be inlove at 13. Everyone probley thinks it's just a crush, well, I am convinced your wrong.

We evacuated once, and we went to the same place, and we hung out a little. I liked him then, and I was 11. When he left, I was CRUSHED! I felt horrible.

Today he was on my float. He smiles at me, but I don't know what he means. After the parade was over, I feel WORSE then I ever did. I want this guy so bad. I even prayed alot of times. I might sound a little dramatic, but please, try and understand.

What are some promises I can make with God? If he helps me get over this guy? I might not ever have him, or see him again [ I probley will see him again ]. I just don't want to feel like this again. I felt like this the day my father died! Could God help him like me, or even be my best friend, just be.. you know.. closer too him. This guy is just AMAZING!

So, does anyone know any promises I can make with God, to help him help me about this problem. I have had crush's, and MANY boyfriends, but I have never felt this feeling.

Thank you.

BTW- for lent I already gave up junk food. I thought it would help me loose weight, and come closer too God. Also, I promised to pray every night, and morning.

No cussing, be nice to everyone, try your hardest in school, set goals for your self, never be depressed/look at the positive side of everything, and don't be jealous of anything (that's a big no-no!)

I can tell you're a very religious person, but I'm going to approach your question without saying anything about god. It sounds to me like you're a nice person he easily got along with in those situations and that's why he smiles at you. It isn't some sign that he wants to be with you. That doesn't mean he doesn't like you, but just understand it doesn't sound like he's giving you any signals.

You are 13. People that are 13 have a lot of hormones and become infatuated with people. Before you exit and give me a 1, hear me out. You say you have had "MANY boyfriends", but it sounds like you are just now becoming more mature. A lot of kids have girlfriends and boyfriends between 11 and 13, but it really doesn't mean anything and chances are neither person actually feels any sort of love for the other. It isn't physically possible. Until you're 13 AT LEAST you don't get that. You're just a teenager with hormones that likes a guy. god can't help, but if you tell him you like him that will get something done to bring him closer.

This is a great question.
If you want to show God how much you love him, an important thing to do is attend mass every Sunday. If you continue to pray to God for something you might want, he might give it to you. Your desire for him could be seen as a temptation, which is bad. I understand you may want to be with him, but if eventually nothing happens between you two, the relationship probably isn't meant to happen.
Hoping and waiting for something sometimes isn't the best idea. I completely understand what you're feeling, but I don't recommend you wait for him.

Please rate me on my advice, not on the fact that this may not have been what you wanted to hear.


***EDIT***
As I said, going to church every Sunday is important. You need to tell your mom that it is VERY important that she takes you to church each Sunday. If you stress the words "very important", and she should know that it really is important to you, and she'll probably take action and take you to church on Sundays

I hope I helped

Hi there. Its cool you have lots of faith in God. Woo! However I must warn you....I wouldnt make any promises with God. He takes them very seriously, and if you break it, if even on accident, then hit hurts him. Thats why in Matthew 5:33 and onJesus says, "Again you have heard that it was said to those of old, 'You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform your oaths to the Lord.'"But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is God's throne;"nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King."Nor shall you swear by your head, because you cannot make one hair white or black."But let your 'Yes' be 'Yes,' and your 'No,' 'No.' For whatever is more than these is from the evil one."

People break promises, and God would rather avoid getting a promise broken.

My suggestion is to just keep praying until something happens. The Lord knows what you want and will provide.

You don't have to make any promises such as giving up junk food and giving him $1000 everyday. There's no such thing. You just pray to him and he'll help you if you really need that help. You don't have to lose weight to become closer to God. God accept us for whoever we are. All he expects from you is faith.
