I have always struggled with my weight and mental issues. It's drove me to isolation and obsession with fitness. Previously in life it brought much success, after mental illness and other hurtles it's become harder but still a huge driving factor in my life. I can't quit. I don't know how to...

Thank you thank you thank you for writing this. I'm not crazy, we are to live forever with Christ. Phew.

I don't know where to post this but yeah. I did a lot of damage to my life very quickly I guess. I came to know Christ at age 27. I'm now 31. As much as I pray and pray for deeper meanings of life, more on everlasting life, I just continue to come across the same boring themes... Everything's...

31 as of yesterday. Better than my mid to late 20s, not as good as my late teens lol. However, very sad to be getting older and not have achieved so much. Im disappointed so many elderly I see look so poorly aged. However, after much thought on that, went to a bible study recently, and the...

I've been using a lot of my negative circumstances as fuel for a greater fire. Im trading weaker physical habits for stronger ones, and many of them. I feel right now like how jesus explains when a tree is rooted firmly in him it produces much fruit. I seem to have been multiplying in more...

Thank you hopesings and Josephg. I have a nasty habit of only opening up about struggles and not the victories. 2 Corinthians 4:8-10 New International Version (NIV)We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but...

Hi hopesings, thanks for the response. Made a thread in the mental health under personality disorders going more on depth. I'm just going through a lot lately, despite, as having noted, making incredible strides in life. I've never asked this of anyone before, but if you could pray for me I'd...

I've been walking with Jesus for years now I believe. What's disappointing is the progress. I've made many positive strides, don't get me wrong. I've done things now I never would have thought possible. I guess what scares me the most is the seriousness of Sin. How destructive it really is. It...

Happy to report back that I'm over 3 weeks off of cigarettes. Of course it's not off into he sunset happily ever after though. I'm realizing more unhealthy addictions and patterns. I honestly feel that if you don't know God personally by the age of 18 or sooner you are completely doomed...

Right, I hear ya. I don't spend much time there, just had something on my mind.

Jesus had dinner at Matthew's house. Many tax collectors and “sinners” came and ate with Jesus and his followers. :D

I had made a post on reddit, I was ranting about aging. Anyways, this is what I got in return, won't show whole original post.

Understand and agree with this, interesting read, thank you for taking the time to write this! I know it's gonna take time, i've been pretty rebellious, only out of ignorance, but rebellious nonetheless. I'm doing just this too, I literally wake up excited to be in his presence, reaffirm...

I have various addictions, not really to alcohol or hard drugs or anything. I do take prescription drugs for mental illness and I do smoke cigarettes though. It's soul crushing honestly. I've not wanted to smoke for like 2 years now since I started. Unfortunately I still do, maybe haven't been...

Thanks James, these are my thoughts exactly.

I disagree with that lately. I have experience with different forms of prayer. Enough to know that one missing piece of the puzzle is enough to leave it incomplete. I was thinking for instance earlier God put adam and even in the garden and told them not to eat from the tree of knowledge. I...

Lately have been praying to him as "God". I feel it works for me a lot better. I had thoughts of Jesus being the mediator between us and god, wondering if maybe praying directly to Jesus might be a mistake? I think i've had a sort of Jesus burnout. Not saying I don't believe in Jesus, I just...

I can directly relate the worst times of my life beginning when I heard about god and feeling coerced into listening to christian music out of guilt. That's the whole thing for me, i've spent at least 12 years now trying to appease god. It's an endless, hopeless, futile mission. Forgiveness is a...

I'm familiar with "blue pilled" meaning. That's that whole matrix bs.

This is another thing I thnk is wrong with people. "I'm so woke and you're not!" Get over yourself. Nobody even has control over anything. anything we do it's because we think we are right until we are sure it's wrong.
