    I have sever mental illness i have sever anexity disorder

    I've had General Anxiety most of my 60 years. I have two bits of advice, one general, one specific. Generally, I would ask you become more flexible in your thinking, more open-minded, always asking for truth from God. I see you are listed as a Baptist. Generally that tradition is very black and...

    Prostatitis, Sex, Aging Men

    I agree with you 100%. Thru the years I've used Dr. Mirkin (drmirkin.com) as my main medical educator. He is brilliant and says the same as you. He does advocate aggressive, long-term antibiotics treatment, which most doctors these days refuse to prescribe (never use Cipro either!). A PSA can be...

    Dream analysis request

    Other than reason, I don't have any of the standard "gifts"...doesn't hurt my feelings. Not led to evangelize. I'd have to be knocked off a horse and have a vision to convince me I'm that kind of guy. But, I have "been led" into a different faith approach based around the Trinity. It basically...

    Dream analysis request

    Um, bingo...lotta childhood truma. I was always attracted to Jesus and have loved Him deeply, but both the Catholic church and Protestant churches did their best in teaching a distant, angry God and drove me away from Him. Were it not for "The Shack" I wouldn't be here today. I highly recommend it.

    Prostatitis, Sex, Aging Men

    A VERY big subject, and yes, Christian men get prostatitis too (saved or not!). Prostatitis, sometimes generally called BPH (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia), is a natural (hah) enlarging of the prostate as men age. The onset can begin when one is younger, but most problems begin after 40...

    Dream analysis request

    Thank you. It opens up a some very big questions which I don't think can ever be answered in this life, like can "salvation" ever be known in this life?. Unlike two other dreams in my life (unlike all others) which gave clear information from God, this one was unclear. I did ask God for clarity...

    Dream analysis request

    Wow, that's sobering, but it does make some sense. It is possible I was "dream-fed" the dream by an evil source. Knowing me and my situation, though, it was a very big and decades long equation. There was no simple answer, which is why I was asking about this dream which puzzled me for a long...

    Dream analysis request

    Hmmm, interesting response. Because it was at a point I was in spiritual crisis. In fact, had I not come across "The Shack" I'd have likely thrown in the towel of faith altogether, just as a beginning. It was definitely at the end of my rope with God. Whether you like William Paul Young and his...

    Thanks Bill, that gives clarity. Thanks for your time and thoughts.

    Dream analysis request

    Requesting person(s) with spiritual discernment and their opinion on a dream I believe was a revelatory-informational dream from God. Not as in a standard dream of disconnected nonsense, but one where I feel God was possibly trying to tell me something...but I'm not sure what. The dream...
