Person i know says mental illness isn’t real.

I know. I don’t think he’s right either. He hits the nail on the head about somethings but this totally falls flat.

Anxiety is my number 1 symptom. I guess all my XTC and meth days are catching up with me.

It paralyzes me. It chokes me and I struggle to get air.

I hope God can use me one day.

I think if you focused on the good side of religion, God being love, that you’d be in a much better place than what you’re doing now which is focusing on the bad side of Satan and evil. God has already won out over Satan. You giving an ounce of your time to the idea of Satan/evil means that he’s already kicking your ass. I have no idea why so many religions pound the idea of evil into their congregants because it’s such a horrible direction to go imho. Know that God is Love. Know that Satan has been defeated. Know that we all sin, it’s a part of life and a part of being human. Focus on the darkness and you’ve already lost.

Satan is more powerful than you think. We’re not Jesus who told Peter, get the behind me satan. More time needs to be addressed on how powerful he is.

I don’t like giving my time to the enemy either. But just saying that you’re going to fine may suit this time but watch out because you never know what the future holds.

I spent a lot of my time praising God when I first got saved. Satan was there just waiting for the opportunity to hit me with an attack. Now I know what to look for when I didn’t know when I first got saved.

Thinking life is going to peaches after being born again is a total lie.

If I would of spent more time in the word I would d passed the test.

God please use this weak person to shame the wise.

You can’t see how you are choosing to live a life of fear instead of a life of love? Yes, that is a choice. I’m not born again, my faith doesn’t believe in it. My faith doesn’t focus on evil and Satan, either. It sounds like fear of evil is being beaten into you and instead of realizing that you are largely a product of your own choices, it’s easier to externalize things and blame evil.

My father went down this holy roller “evil” path and he’s largely shunned all of his family, choosing to believe we are evil as opposed to human. BTW he is the one who is physically abusive.

If I didn’t love you I wouldn’t warn you. I wouldn’t care. Yes some ppl take it to the extreme, but you have to realize that this life was ruined by the god of this world (age) and that’s the devil.

I’m born again. God is love and thru Him I’m able to live a life of victory. I’m a chosen vessel of the Lord.

I’m grateful God would choose me. If I didn’t preach on what God impresses me to I’m not going to make it as a preacher.

My life is drowned out by anxiety. To tell me like Christians that I focus to much energy on the evil is counterproductive of what I need to hear. And that’s that What I’m dealing with at the time is a battle. That God is going to use it for His glory in the future.


Until the Holy Ghost opens your eyes I can’t force salvation down your into you. The Holy Ghost has to open your eyes.

I know many here say I’m a religious nut. But the fact is I’m called and chosen by God to minister. A lot of ppl are going to disagree with me. I face that now and I accept it.


Jesus said don’tthr your pearls to swine. All they will do is stomp on them then tear you to peace’s. Unfortunately I wish I could just touch someone and they see what I see. Many say I’m arrogant about my faith. All I’m trying to do is show you the way.

 

[EveHarrington]

Show me THE way?

You've got some of your doctrine wrong. Let me ask you something... What makes you think God expects you to fight Satan on your own? Wouldn't that be pride? You can't. That is what Christ died for. Christ died for your sins so that you don't HAVE to keep fighting on your own. "Come to me all who are weary I will give you rest"

 

[sonicwhite]

It’s coming to the Cross. Christ loves you so much. More then I could ever. He wants a intimate relationship with you.

He wants to love you. God sent His only Son to pay the price. I’m really hoping you’re wanting to know the Love if God and not just testing me.

This world is filled with nothing but hurt. God made a way for use to have life and gave it more abundantly.


For God So loved the world. Love! It’s the only way. I’ve been hurt too. I’ve tasted the fruit of death. I’ve been seconds from dying. Satan was just laughing as I begged God for Mercy. When I received by faith I had the most profound peace and joy I have ever experienced. I want you to see that also. I’m not being arrogant. Christ said “I am the Way, the truth and the life.” Many religions at the end don’t give the same confidence that only giving your life to Jesus can share. I’m so sorry you’re going through what you are.


Please just take the time and ask God, if you’re real please show me that You love me. He may show you immediately or by His word. That I do not know. But it’s the most wonderful thing you can ever experience and it’s all worth it.

Well if I’m wrong about the devil then my fight is fruitless. I just think He’s out to destroy my witness.

I’ve been going thru the thick of it for awhile. Doctors are reluctant to prescribe benzos anymore and they were the only thing that helps my anxiety’s

One thing I’ve gained from all this is my prayer life. From waking up till I go to sleep I’m more active in praying to my Father.


My relationship with Jesus has grown. Life is hard and it’s even more harder when you’re a Christian.

Barrow is the road that leads to Life and few find it. Broad is the road that leads to destruction and MANY will be on it.


Paul said don’t be ignorant about the devils schemes. I know what to look for now.

Before my OCD trial I had a big gripping temptation for lust. Ever since then it’s been purged out of me. Romans 8:28. For we know that Alm things work for good to those who love God and have been called according to His purpose.

If I give you a phone number will you call it and talk to them about how you feel about all this?

 

[sonicwhite]

That in itself makes me anxious but I guess I will. It can’t hurt.
