Question:
Ok, here goes. about 2 years ago i meet a girl in my school who just moved here from argentina. her names daniela. being that she was new and didn't know much english she was shy. She never really talked to me untill one day in the 10th grade (im a senior now) she asked me a question about something in my Bio class. Ok, now we're friends and a few months after that i learn that she attends the spanish church service held at my church. I was like Wow, shes a Christian, thats cool, now we have something to talk about. Another year went by and now we're seniors. I drive her to school every morning and we pray together and go out to eat and i love it, i have so much fun when im with her. Just last week I herd some really startling news from her. In a few months shes most likely going to be moving to South Carolina (we live in new jersey). This could come as early as Feb. and shes pretty sure its gonna happen. Truthfully this is the most depression news of my life. It seems like I "FINIALLY" found someone with the same morals as I do and someone who loves the Lord with all her heart and someone that I can truthfully say that I love. Im thinking why? Why me and why now? To me it doesn't make sense. I know God has a plan for all of us and this is all part of it, but I don't understand what it means. If she moves I will be heartbroken. I don't know if it's right to pray for her not to move because that kinda seems like im praying for my own selfish self (In God's prespective) Please pray for me, and for everything to work out in the end. Thank you all, God bless
Answer:
Shame, i really feel for you man. I know how it feels to finally meet the "partner" of you dreams, and then watch it get ripped away in a instant. I wont say praying that she stays is wrong, (hey thats love). God will understand, He knows your deppresd, about this. Altough if its His will, it wont make Him change His mind...My advice to you, is trust. Trust God, He has a will for all of us, and a reason for everyone that comes in to our lives. Someone whom i love very much ones told me: If someone come into your life, and makes your the happiest person alive, but for some reason she/he could not stay, dont be sad. But be glad, that your paths has crossed, and cherish the footprints they made in your heart. I didnt like that, but it happent to me, and i realized how true it was. That person made me soooooo happy, but left. I was broken, and mad. But then i realized how lucky i was to have know that person. And i will never forget him. Each time i come across our footprints, i laught myself to death, cause he gave me so many memories. And i trust God, for i know, if it is His will, me and this guy will meet again, and then maybe, it will be forever..
I hope this helps. Good luck, i will be praying, promise.

Answer:
That helps alot, thanks. I guess your right about praying about her not leaving because it is out of love. Greed would be like.....God please give me 10 dollars i need it. thanks
Answer:
I will be praying God's will is done, not that she stay, but that God's will is done.
As a Senior in High School, you still have plenty of time to look, and plenty of ways to keep in contact if she moves.
There is no finally about it. There will be many other believers with the same morals as you have, that you will meet.

not necisarily. I am praying for about 3000 right now, that i do need, to stay in school. It is often a need to pray, even for cash. The issue is whether it is something to "spend on your lusts".

You hit it right on the money.

thats the selfish part yes. I ment it as being something like.....:Oh! Oh! Oh! God I need 10 dollars because i NEED that new video game, please give my 10 dollars God i cant live without it" When i was younger, i was guilty of that a few times i must admit, but that was a really long time ago. But back to the topic of my request. I'm feeling a little better now because I know God is in control of all things that happen. I guess ill just have to ride out the storm and what happens in the end.
Answer:
I really feel for you too, it seems you really love her a lot. You are still young though and have some living to do so don't stop living. You can always keep in touch with each other and who knows what He has in store for you? It's nice to have people to talk to in times of need and if possible try not to dwell on it and become depressed and feel sorry for yourself. Does she know how you feel about her? If it might make you feel better from what you've said, I get the feeling her "loss" is going to be similar to yours, if not greater as she's the one leaving and venturing into new territory... and that's gotta' be tough on someone shy like that and who only just recently moved there. Anyway, keep your head up and I'm certain everything will work out for the best for both of you!

G.Man.....I'm almost certian that she knows how I feel , only it's hard to let her know because everything right now is fine, we're as best friends as best friends can be. If we make it known to eachother then it probably would feel kinda werid u know? It's one of those type deals but eventually it will come out, it's only a matter of time I think. But thanks for your post, posts like that really cheer me up
Answer:
Well if it cheered you up it was worth the typing!
I didn't mean to sound like I was saying you should tell her... just if you were acknowledging the fact. I think it's important that both of you are on the same page and if you're not certain how the other feels then yeah, you're absolutely right don't stir anything up... if it's meant to be then it will be.
