    Finding an Anchor in God

    I am grieving right now. I’m grieving the loss of a damaging, unhealthy, and harmful friendship, but a friendship I held close to all the same. I’m grieving the loss of the familiar life I used to have, a life my old friend played a massive role in. I’m grieving myself, as it relates to this...

    Why are You Cast Down?

    “As a deer pants for flowing streams, so pants my soul for you, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come and appear before God? My tears have been my food day and night, while they say to me all the day long, ‘Where is your God?’ These things I...

    His Song is with Me

    Sometimes in our lives we have days when we are not as chipper as we normally are. We don’t feel well, or someone has done something to us to hurt us, or things are just generally going bad for us. So, we may begin to focus on the negative rather than on the positive. Thus we can’t see the...

    No Tears on Outside

    He’s hurting, he’s crying, No tears on outside. He’s injured, he’s stirring, All now kept inside. He’s failing for words To say all that he feels. He cannot express, Cannot make his appeals. His outside is inside, Trapped now in his skin, Knows not where to turn, And his faith’s wearing thin...

    Feeling foolish for asking for help

    Okay so, long story short, I more than likely have OCD, and lately I've been feeling really depressed. I've emailed my pastor before asking for advice regarding my breakup with my ex, but almost every time I email him, I feel like I shouldn't. It's not that he's mean, I just feel like I'm being...

My age is relevant because I waited 27 years for a boyfriend. And what did I get? I got a man who, while he...

    Does God even love certain people who were "mistakes"?

    My mother, who is a spiritual woman, has always talked about God's free will with humanity. One of the things she talks about is how some people have children that they weren't really supposed to have, which is part of God's "free will". So my question is this: Does God even care about the...
