My story with God
I met God in at a very trying time of my life. I was only 4 at the time, my mother had abandoned me, my sister and younger brother. We ended up with my father and stepmother (which wasn't a great thing either). Through all that I've gone through and still go through, I know that Christ has been there for me all the way. I get scared sometimes but I know that if I cry out to him, he's there on swift wings to chase the demon of oppression away. I know he cares for me and has his plans for my life. I try very hard to trust and know that all the things that have happened in my life are for my good, although I may not see it at the moment. I also know that my feelings should not dictate how my life runs or how I feel about God. Whether I feel he is there or not during a certain moment isn't the issue, it is having faith regardless of my feelings at any given time or moment of weakness I may have.
Other stuff about me:
I am currently going through some struggles in my life with lies the devil tells me. I know this may be much for people to swallow but these demons people speak about are real and I can feel and know when one is around oppressing me. There's a heavy feeling in the air and usually I feel it when I lay down to go to sleep. I feel it on the side of my bed. I'm usually too scared to look that way for fear it will show its face. I know also that when I cry out to the Lord, it will go away. What I don't understand is why it doesn't go away and stay away. It always comes back and so I call it an evil attachment that doesn't seem to want to let go. I often feel it or have sensed its presence when I am at my weakest. In recent months, I was actually shoved by it. I had a priest come and bless the place but now it is back. It hasn't touched me yet but it does harrass me with shakes of the bed or tiny touches to my arms or legs. I'm not crazy, I'm afflicted. I hate feeling like this. Sometimes I want to lash out at it with all of my strength but I have none.

    Hello Mary!!

    Praise the Lord you are here! I love your story, and what youre dealing with.I totally agree with you when it comes to demons. I dont need to see them to believe them. My goodness! They love to attack me day in and day out. I lived a very worldly life before Christ, and I tell you Satan isnt a happy camper now that Im saved. He knows what buttons to push!

    This is Paige, another moderator here on TheNet, and Im very blessed to have you join our community of believers, as we grow in the love and wisdom of our Lord . Its soo neat to meet new friends here from all around the world .You will find TheNet a safe place to get to know other believers and share your love and life in Christ.
    I really like it here because its a great online source of Christian information,and fellowship. When I find it hard to get out of the house or hard to get to church, I get online and get "filled" with His word and all the other believers and thier prayers. Its soo good to know that when Im hurting there are others that are too and in need of the same love and support I do from the Lord. Praise God for His work on the Cross!!! We are all one body now and can work together to heal and help other members.

    Also, Id like to invite you to come over and visit us in the Womens Group where women from all ages and all walks of life come to encourage and be encouraged to help, and be helped, to share thier wisdom with other women , and get prayer that we all need as women to continue in our faith and the path God has set before us all.
    I hope to "see" you often and I would love to get to know you more as we walk this faith. Im your friend, and if I can help or answer any questions for you, Im here.
    God Bless you,Mary! I cant wait to get to know you more.

    Dear Mary,

    Greetings in Christ. I have read your profile and is quite intrigued by your account. Only a fool can dismiss the existence of demons.... As the elect however, we only have one fear to invite into our lives: the fear of the LORD. It is the beginning of WISDOM...and of VICTORY... This one fear drives away all the other 'fears' for the Lord is the originator...and ruler of all forces!

    I would like to get to know you more mmy sister.

    In His love-Pst. Bernhard C.

    In Christ Jesus-Pst. Bernhard C.

    Hello sweetie!!!! You are awesome!
    Thank you for the compliment. The dog closest to you in the picture was actulally my dog. 1/4 Husky. Sheba passed away years ago, but her picture carries on in the hand of others who buy the prints of it. God blessed me with an art talent, but like many others, I wish I had talent in other things. Like Balance,self control,wisdom, and calmness! Id love that! How about you??
    You are soo awesome!! We will have to IM each other here. Nights are always better for me.

    Hello Mary!!! I am soo sorry that you didnt get my last message!!! I sat there and wrote a very,very long reply to your last message, then I sent it to you not even realizing that it was just the allaboutgod.com email address, noit yours. You probably have no idea what Im talking about, but oh well. Just know that I spent a good half hour writing back to you and now its gone. AAAAAAH! Help me Lord! Anyway, I was soo touched to get your last message or should I say messages. You are soo great! You dont have to write me like that.(Although it was kinda nice). You are special and I think its such a special gift that you have with your daughter. My mom and I used to be that close, but as I got older, and she excelled at her job and met a man she eventually married, it has not been the same. There is a wall between us that I just cannot tear down to reach her. She knows Im a Christian, but I dont think that is why she put that wall up. I have deep sorrow that it is not the same, but I cant do anything about it. She now is a very self centered, hard, bitter,"I deserve everything" type of person now. I want he to have a blessed life and be happy, but I can tell she isnt happy. She doesnt get the fact that I did live with her for 25 years and can recall quite a bit. Her "new life" of love and riches' is fine, but I dont think she should treat me like she doesnt really know me or get to know me. I feel awful. Oh well. So, I am envious of your relationship with your daughter. That is great! I hope and pray that my daughter will become a beautiful, strong woman in a fallen world. I love you, and maybe Ill see you tonight and we can IM??? God Bless!!! Tell your daughter hello!
