mercy
Posted 30th July 2009 at 08:27 PM by FoundInGrace
I am on a bit of a journey at the moment, with God, with life
I have a tough situation that is constant in my life and am owndering if I should leave or if God really does want me to stay
When does mental health come into a decision? Is God okay with a person saying I need to look after my mental health and leave, I dont know if thats okay with you God, I hope this isnt where you wanted me to stay, I'm sorry if this is disobedience to you to leave, is it failing God to not stay in a negative environment when you are not sure if it is His will to leave? and maybe God has a breakthrough round the corner that if I'd stayed I might miss out on?
Maybe sometimes we just have to make a decision and live with the consequences before God.
I do not know how it works and to be honest am struggling with reading the Bible and spending time with God. He feels far away, probably as a result. I think it is because I dont want to fail God so can not be around Him, and yet I dearly want to know His mercy and grace and love at the moment
When we are in the will of God is there depression? I am not sure and yet some of the fathers of our faith struggled deeply with what could be seen as wrestling with God on very deep levels and dark times in their lives so does that mean we should not expect these times too?

| | my heart goes out to you....and sometimes we are in abusive relationships and it happens so subtle that we dont even recognize it as abuse....if you were being hit a pastor would tell you to leave....but sometimes mental abuse is harder to recognize....you are not saying divorce,,,you are saying removing yourself from the situation....so if it is effecting your mental health then it may be time to remove yourself from the relationship for awhile....when you are stronger you can access what needs to be done...again I am not suggesting divorce, I am saying that you do what you have to do to avoid mental collapse....Sometimes the evil one can use depression as a way to get you to take lots of medications that may not be necessary so hon, my heart goes out to you and I hope things get better for you real soon...No guilt, no judgement,,,I've been where you are and know the pain... In Christ, janet |

Jesus said cast you burdens on me i care for you..so why to worry....just pray to GOD share all your worries tension with him...he will help you..he is there to help you...he will help..he is awesome GOD. he knows all our worries so do not worry..amen. |
