I think staying in the word and praying, can at first b a very difficult thing but once we make it a lifestyle it becomes easier. God does hear the cries of his people and though it may feel as though he is not listening, he is. There have been so many times in the last 6 months, that I would cry uncontrollably to God and wonder y I couldn't find peace. God heard me; however, I wanted answers right then and there. I poured myself into God and consistently called out to him eventhough I didn't feel like it or didn't understand y I should do it. It paid off because God showed me that he heard my heartfelt cries and he brought me to a place of humility. I wanted so badly to think negative and be angry but trusted God. What was confusing to me all of a sudden made perfect sense. God does care and he can bring us to a place of perfect peace if we allow him to have total control.

Dear lina,
Just keep praying god answers all prayers,it may not seem to be right away or fast enough,but we need to have faith that the goodness of the lord will get us through.He forgives us if we seek forgiveness.I have a really bad time with anxiety,i have my whole life,and I am mentally and emotionally drained,i feel frustrated ,like why me? But then if you look around and there are people that are critically ill and have so much faith,and still help others.God takes your ego away brings you to others around you,and off of yourself and in turn I think closer to him.I am not an expert of the bible,my family barely went to church,but i have always believed.and without that belief i know I could not have gotten through the rough times I've had.
may god bless you Lina,keep the faith,Annette

Hello Annette,
I feel the same way. Right now my stress level has gone up and I find myself focused on the negative. I pray and I ask for forgivness. But these thoughts and feelings chain me to my past like a vice. I dont know what to do anymore. I feel spiritual tired. Like I am trying to swim up stream while the current is pushing against me. I just dont know what to do anymore. Will I ever be free from the past or is the past going to hunt me forever. Guilt is awfull it hurts and distroys lives. I would love to go back and udo the past. I know now that i should not be pround of the person I was. I wornged and I know it now but then i did not care. But when it became to much and i was called out, I know that what i did was wrong. I never felt such fear. Fear from God, I still fear him, alot.
I just dont know what to do, will there ever be peace in my heart.
Sorry darkness has surounded me and I want out
Lina

Whenever stress arises for me,my old negative thinking patterns creep in.I really believe I have always prayed and sought mercy from god and that's what had to have gotten me through.I don't have a strong support system with family,and sometimes my choices of friends were not the people I thought they were.I have prayed to change my life and to find peace inside myself,so that I can be good for my daughter and move on from past hurts.

Someone previously posted this linked on here (Love God with all your heart) I will post it again. It is so powerful and I beleive that we can all benefit from this. It will make you stop and think...........do we really love God with all of our heart. After reading this I have the mindset that I will be thankful for any situation that God has placed me in and know that he is drawing me closer to him through the pain I endure.
I hope everyone that hasn't read this will apply this to their lives.

Hello everyone,
I too am new to this group. I too am hunted day in and day out by my past by my fears. I feel that i live in darkness and my dreams tell me that I do. I am chained and bound by my past and everyday the chains choke me till i cannot breath anymore. Then the war games of hate begin in my head. Reminding me day in and day out how worthless I am. That I cannot be forgiven. Over and over again, I pray to change. I believe that God is real that Jesus is alive. I know he can heal and forgive. There are good days and there are bad days. The bad days sometimes turn in to bad weeks. But I keep on praying. Thanks Lina

Hey everyone!! I am knew to this site. It is such a struggle to move on from the pains of this world but when we place all of our trust in him, he is sure to help us through it.
The wars of the mind can easily knock us off our feet. The hardest thing for me is to think positive when I feel so negative, it is a daily struggle. Letting go of the past is something I struggle with each day. I am confident that one day God will bring me to a place that I can let go completely.
