parent patrol

[lil_ridin_hood]

Ok, I am kinda new soo.... anyways, I am 14 and have a huge parent problem. I spend most of my life at church and my life is about God. I can sense in a way a calling from the Lord for me to do things. I have a gift and need to serve the Lord and to make others happy. Almost like counseling. I love to do those things. I am never trully sad because I make my friends laugh and help them and I help them through God. I don't hang with my friends at all, I am an only child-adopted- and I never had many friends come over. So I use my hang time with "friends" on chats like this one. But my parents have to see everything that is going on. I don't trust them and my mom and I don't get along. She is not into the faith like me and we have different ideas on things. I used to talk to my youth pastor, Chad, and then he got worried about me and thought I was getting into things I was getting out of. I made bad choices and he was the first to know, he was helping me forget them and then he told everyone. Now I can't email or talk to him on the phone. I am still not over it. Now, my parents are in my face all the time. They hold me back from callings and it is hurting. Has anyone had this problem because I am going insane. My life is with the Lord and I am getting further and further away. Anyone know how I should approach this? I am lost right now. Thanks.


God be with you.

Ok firstly you have to remember that its great that your life is with God but God would still want you to have friends aswell and as hard as this may seem you have to fit friends into your life aswell. Put other than that i can understand what you mean with your parents and everything both of my parents aren't christain either and before i was baptised it was very hard explain to them how i felt. You need to keep talking to your mum and eventually she will understand as soon as you manage to get them to understand (which could take soem time but have patience) then things will be alot easier un till then keep praying hope this helps xxx
