Welcome Brit,
May God bless you!
I'm sorry if some things in your life may not of been good,
God understands you and whatever problems you may of faced, God knows about you intimately. God wants to help you, but you need to accept Him.
God loves you more than you can imagine!
God has taken the initiative to save mankind of it's sins, because many of our sins are quite serious and they would surely of kept us from entering Heaven.
Pray to God and He will protect you, you are His child that He loves dearly.
He created you out of His undying Love, and He has saved you out of His undying Love.
There is no safer place then to be in God's hands.
God understands many your problems first hand because He walked this earth as Jesus Christ. Jesus understood how it felt to be angry, sad, happy, confused, joyful, sorrowful, etc.
Let God become your closest friend.
Read through the Gospels and see the Glory of God through Jesus Christ.
Accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour and you will be filled with joy!
May God bless you
