    Thank you very much for your reply. I will try harder. I want Him to rule my life more than anything, I really do. I want to feel Him, to know Him. Thank you again.

    I am not looking for excessive reassurance. I am looking for anything. People say they walk in the Spirit, that God talks to them (not directly), nudges them. If that is happening to me how do I recognize it? I know its a lot. I am just trying to explain what I have done, my experiences...

    First I want to say thank you to the many, many, many responses I received. All from folks trying to help me in some way. From my deepest heart thank you, thank you. It has raised many questions for me. From the responses I received, my biggest takeaway is "It doesn't seem like I have been...

    Ty for your time and response. I have had my blood checked, thyroid, colon......etc. I thought maybe it was a health issue as well. But no. I read the word everyday, I try to study. But I don't seem to get anything out of it. I feel very empty, alone. I have no friends to lean on or talk to. Its...

    Do I consider myself without sin. No of course not. I am familiar with the verse , there is none worthy, no not one. But, I love my neighbor, I love my God with all my heart and soul (I admit its failing now). I do consider myself a good person. I am not without sin. But I serve at my church...

    I would give up everything I have to be happy. I am not a materialist. I have a nice home I am thankful for. I always have food. But I am far, far from being well off. I struggle to pay bills like everyone else. I just want to feel joy and happiness again. Its been so long.

    What do you mean. Was I baptized, yes. At an age where I knew the purpose and meaning.

    Thank you very much. I do read/have ready the bible for many years, and do know most of the "popular" chapters/verses. They just seem to ring hollow these days. Thank you again

    I know he hasn't left me. I am just wondering why I must suffer so long, even after losing my wife and business. If I just had a glimpse of something good that would work miracles. But 6 years. How does God expect anyone to be able to bare that?

    Thank you very much. I just thought I have been doing all the correct things. But isolated for 6 years is too much for me to bare anymore

    Just cannot do it any longer / long thread I am sorry

    I have suffered from severe depression for almost 16 years not. I have tried to take my own life once, <staff edit>. I had all intentions if dying. This was 6 years ago. I have always considered myself a christian. I pray at least twice every day, I read my bible everyday. I server on the tech...
