• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

still feeling blue :(

Dear beloved. Try this for a faith exercise.

Find a quiet spot if you can and take God's Word with you. Read as He gives - so when you have a hunger or a thirst then read - and await His (loving desire to be with Him) Call.

Fight the Satan trying to squash you - the accuser - that Dragon will try make you focus on BAD LIFE - (or your BIG I) - however keep looking at Jesus as the dark one does that - knowing the flatter you become, and the darker it gets, the closer Christ's Call of love will be.

When you are rock bottom like this - then Jesus comes if you really trust in Him and He will take the heavy load away - setting you free to enjoy Good Life with Him. This is what got me going again after 7 years of non-stop misery.

Getting to know Him down deep! He is awesome for now when I'm deeply depressed, He is always with me, and teaches me to pray for others hurting while loving me - His blanket of love - teaching me to love. I never want any one else than Him.

To let go of your misery, beloved that is all you have to do in faith, let God's love comfort you. (though such can be hard enough. Though I found that deepest misery works quickest, for to hate bad life - but not you suffering it - brings His Good life in faith and love for God, yourself and your neighbour - setting you free to love while depressed like anything.

Honestly true He is awesome when you are feeling blue.

When His love fills you just let him take you Home, angels will tend you, if you dare to believe that our Heavenly Father loves you to be safely in Him.

My impression of The Call


The Call!

Eternity beckons
He says
"I love you true.
I did,
I do
and I will always love you!"


So what now?
Who are you
waiting for?

Hear Jesus call!

"Its done!
Come!
"

I'm sorry, brother.
Is there anything we can do to make you feel more welcome?
If you need a break, take one - we'll miss you, but you need to do what's right for you at the moment.

See dearest?

You are eating pain and suffering and it is tearing you to pieces - though you think it is your dad and you - but in reality The Lie is hurting you deeply and filling you up with BAD LIFE. Please spit it out beloved of The Lord - such is not good fro you!

Simply thank Jesus for your freedom to be in Him and ask Him for peace and await Him.

PLEASE Let go of those lies hurting you so bad.

And Yes - Please - go - and do have spiritual children with Jesus - sons of God to help you in your battles. I'm sure your Daddy Upstairs will be most pleased!


Stay in The Truth of His love and do not let The lies of others or yourself drag you in to that pit.

Be strong in faith.:hug::hug::hug:


Isaiah 55

"Come, all you who are thirsty,
come to the waters;
and you who have no money,
come, buy and eat!
Come, buy wine and milk
without money and without cost.
Why spend money on what is not bread,
and your labor on what does not satisfy?
Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good,
and your soul will delight in the richest of fare.

Give ear and come to me;
hear me, that your soul may live.
I will make an everlasting covenant with you,
my faithful love promised to David.

See, I have made him a witness to the peoples,
a leader and commander of the peoples.

Surely you will summon nations you know not,
and nations that do not know you will hasten to you,
because of the LORD your God,
the Holy One of Israel,
for he has endowed you with splendor."

Seek the LORD while he may be found;
call on him while he is near.

Let the wicked forsake his way
and the evil man his thoughts.
Let him turn to the LORD, and he will have mercy on him,
and to our God, for he will freely pardon.

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,"
declares the LORD.

"As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.

As the rain and the snow
come down from heaven,
and do not return to it
without watering the earth
and making it bud and flourish,
so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater,

so is my word that goes out from my mouth:
It will not return to me empty,
but will accomplish what I desire
and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.

You will go out in joy
and be led forth in peace;
the mountains and hills
will burst into song before you,
and all the trees of the field
will clap their hands.

Instead of the thornbush will grow the pine tree,
and instead of briers the myrtle will grow.
This will be for the LORD's renown,
for an everlasting sign,
which will not be destroyed."

Sister don't worry about it!

When you read something you like, then ask Jesus to let Him grow in you in Truth and love, as you give your old, dead, hurting, empty life to Him. Just keep doing this - whenever Loving Truth is seen - eating The Word in deed, I call that!:thumbsup:

Make sure you give Thanks a lot - even for very small things - and always ask God to bless it - so it may grow in you -and also others who are hurting ill, lies or sin.


Keep growing thankful, submissive, caring, forgiving, kind love and soon your harvests will begin to come in.

Be loved beloved:hug:



Isaiah 40:1-11

Comfort, comfort my people,
says your God.
Speak tenderly to Jerusalem,
and proclaim to her
that her hard service has been completed,
that her sin has been paid for,
that she has received from the LORD's hand
double for all her sins.


A voice of one calling:
"In the desert prepare
the way for the LORD ;
make straight in the wilderness
a highway for our God.



Every valley shall be raised up,
every mountain and hill made low;
the rough ground shall become level,
the rugged places a plain.



And the glory of the LORD will be revealed,
and all mankind together will see it.
For the mouth of the LORD has spoken."



6 A voice says, "Cry out."
And I said, "What shall I cry?"


"All men are like grass,
and all their glory is like the flowers of the field.

The grass withers and the flowers fall,
because the breath of the LORD blows on them.
Surely the people are grass.

The grass withers and the flowers fall,
but the word of our God stands forever."



You who bring good tidings to Zion,
go up on a high mountain.

You who bring good tidings to Jerusalem,
lift up your voice with a shout,
lift it up, do not be afraid;
say to the towns of Judah,
"Here is your God!"



See, the Sovereign LORD comes with power,
and his arm rules for him.
See, his reward is with him, :clap::clap::clap:
and his recompense accompanies him. :clap::clap::clap:


He tends his flock like a shepherd:
He gathers the lambs in his arms
and carries them close to his heart;
he gently leads those that have young.

Second guessing myself again....:doh:About my worth (as in who I am am I worthy or not) and all... :sigh:


Good point point sis!:o

In and of ourselves in sin we are not worth anything - so just let go of that horrible feeling where your self worth is useless - that is why CVhrist came to get you - to safe you from such fate.

So please give not worthy to Jesus and sincerely thank for Loving you so much and the Joy will be he next thing coming past.


This is what Christ showed me when I let go of my low-selfesteem and dressed myself with Him instead.

I See

I see the Chosen
the dust of the earth
......Awaiting.....
the great awakening
......Awaiting.....
A New Beginning
We all died to the old.

I look up in hope
relief at last
no pain will remain
after birthing is done
The hurt lies in the past
now only awaiting time
to stop bleeding.

I hear God's children rejoicing
The great throng praising,
What Joy is ours?
Life everlasting
doesn't die again
not now..
..or ever!

I see Holy, Holy, Holy
Worthy of all adoration
Numbered existence gone.
Forever praising
The Lamb
for what He's done
for ALL of us.

Amen.

Feeling very alone right now, feel like I really can't trust anyone. I need to make some major life decisions very soon here and have no idea which is the lesser evil so to speak. Starting to think it might be best for me to just go total loner and stop dealing with anyone online or off. Given enough time everyone will turn on you, family and friends. I'm just tired of getting hurt, why can't I just forget things and move on? Why do I care?

Dear brother have you considered Jesus?


Follow Him and us who love Him, He has been looking after us and fixing our problems, you are most welcome


Much love


Gerry

Ponder on this my friend


An invitation to The Chosen.

God's Love will not take or will
you to conform to rules or demand
which imprison, enslave, burn or kill you.

God's Love will not pervert what's good
or otherwise love other then The Truth always said
True Love was, is and always will be Good!

In God's Love you are free to be right!
For in His love everything is good proper and kind
He loves all who love good and true to rule!

His Love is caring, providing, and sharing.
His Love always enjoys and protects good life.
His love rules even when bad life has being in us!

Hear Jesus call - Come join up with us all!
Leave whatever ties you down and be free
and love good life with all God's own.

To the rest in your heart God's asks
how long will you tarry in the darkness?
Please leave such bad existence within.

For life must not, no never should, or would, or could,
be forceful, rude, prideful, arrogant, selfish, lustful
or otherwise be untrue to God's loving truth.

Neither should life be hurting or ill,
hungry, oppressed, despised, hated
or otherwise have existence in wrong.

The Church knows that Jesus is coming soon
All bad life will be our shameful past then,
so please leave your bad life while you can!

Love

You are worth dying for, sweetie - and that is a fairly major thing!
You are so precious to God, and to us here... don't forget how much Jesus was willing to pay for you! :hug:

I'm sorry, brother.
It's good to 'see' you again, but I'm sorry things are so hard at the moment.
Praying for you, and here if you need a listening ear or a shoulder to cry on :hug:
