I wasn’t sure where to post this. I looked through all the threads on this forum. I am new to this site.

I needed a place to discuss my struggles. I wish they was a board just for that. But I guess this is the right spot because I could use all the prayers that I can get!

I have so much anger in me. I feel like I shouldn’t be living the life I have. The sick part is I know there are people who would want my life!! I am blessed with an amazing husband, children, home, etc.

I am being eaten alive by my anger. I feel like I should have never been given a family not this life. I was meant to be alone and die alone.

I keep questioning God why I was brought into existence and I get angry. I hate living in this world and I truly believe that being born is a time of mourning and death a celebration. I am eager to meet my death and often fantasize about just dropping dead of a heart attacking or something.

Living on this planet is miserable. I am being consumed with these miserable thoughts and anger and I know they are wrong. I’m so so tired. Just completely exhausted. I’m a miserable person who was meant to be alone.

Praying for you.
God wants you to have peace.
And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful.
‭‭Colossians‬ ‭3:15‬ ‭

Find all the passages you can on peace from God. Write them out, read them, pray them. Let His peace fill you. Anger destroys us. I know anger too well and I had to let it go. Not easy but when peace comes. Peace is a fruit of the Spirit. Let’s God’s Spirit dwell in you.

Are you rightfully hot with anger...? Are you...? Think about it please...

What was His crime...? giving you/me/us and "all of this" "life"...? Well, God forbid!

He never promised this life would be easy, and growing up is often hard and difficult, and painful, and involves a great deal of "pain" as well...

But it is only for this life, and what's 60-100 years compared to eternity anyway...?

God Bless!

so we were created to basically run a race our entire lives for a reward? It sounds quite cruel.

I have 2 children whom I love and wouldn’t want them to struggle in life. I regret bringing them into this world because struggle is all they will ever know.

So the purpose of life is to not drown in this obstacle course and the better your attitude about it the better your reward?

I didn't say anything about your attitude. I think your attitude is totally understandable. It often does seem cruel. It is hard. Hard to make it through the day. Hard to have people depend on you when you feel like you can't keep going.

I can’t help but wonder why life was given... just to born into sin and constantly fight every day?

The reason why you suffer so much is because of the truth that is your reality. You hate life while it is a gift of God. You hate yourself while God and others love you, you are depressed because you see no good in life and question the purpose.

To be renewed in your mind is what you are after, as you build yourself into your depressive angry state so you can let Jesus get you out.

See the reason for you being born is for you to flee your corrupt and sinful nature and escape it through Christ and for Christ to get something beautiful out of it. If you sin and then look at the sinner and hate the sinner then you act in anti-Christ manner. Jesus doesn't operate that way. He wants us to be saved from our sin - every day again!

So please lady bring your anger to Christ. Let Him dismantle it with His loving truth giving you grace to eat. When we accept grace from God then self hate dies and love for God comes and dwells in our hearts. It is His love that makes us caring and nurturing people.

So rather than hating this world be like your heavenly Father and love it and forgive people their sins and go out and love God your neighbour and yourself to be able to love your neighbour. Do this with God's love and your life will flourish and your depression disappear.

To cultivate love instead of more anger that is how you can be saved from this affliction. So do bring your angry times to Jesus and leave them there and begin to love instead of hate and see what happens from there.

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
The Lord loves truthfully Wise and Good.
True Love was, is and always will be Good!

In God's Love you are free to be right!
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
loving good life with all God's own to be.'

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.

Please hand your Bad Life over to Jesus
Humbly ask for His Good Life back in return
and go love God, self and neighbour with Joy.

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

We don’t have to do nothing but struggle. We aren’t suppose to struggle every day.
“But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things!”
‭‭Galatians‬ ‭5:22-23‬ ‭NLT‬
With the Spirit things change. We change. We don’t have to be stuck in our problems. Not saying more won’t come, they will but we grow and learn to get through them , with God.

Please seek help. Something is not right and is troubling you. Seek a counsellor who can deal with depression, because I think a lot of what you're going through could be depression. Write down what angers you so much, and if you feel like it, scream in a pillow, or punch a pillow, but basically get all that anger out, it will relieve you. Talk to a friend, family member, or counsellor about your feelings.

Frankly, I struggle with these feelings, too.

Hang on, friend. Spend time in prayer when the anger closes in. I have also found that doing a very tiny number of ascetic choices throughout the day (cream but no sugar, no thank you on seconds), helps my spiritual state a lot.

Not a "reward", but is for "growing us up", ect...

I have 2 children whom I love and wouldn’t want them to struggle in life. I regret bringing them into this world because struggle is all they will ever know.

As apposed to "no one one should ever have to struggle ever, for anyone or anything, ever", ect...?

Your children will grow up and learn lessons (mature, develop, ect) by what they go through, ect, and you cannot keep them from ever having to ever go through anything at all, ever, I mean, just how realistic is that...? And most parents don't mind mind that there kids might have to go through some "normal" things, or normal kid stuff, ect, they just try to be there for them to help them through it...

These "temporary light afflictions", ect... Are meant to grow us, and in fact is the only way to "grow" us or grow anything, unless you are saying no one should ever have to grow or grow up at all ever...?

So the purpose of life is to not drown in this obstacle course and the better your attitude about it the better your reward?

"better attitude"... "rewards"... Your pretty funny... Were you trying to be funny...? Anyway, I think your missing the point my dear... this life is all about, or should be all about, our next perfect life with God, we go through this to get there, this is even necessary to get there... And if you fully understood the profundity of that, (eternity with God) you would realize that it is not about those things you mention or are thinking about at all... You would see with new eyes...

I don't think your "seeing the forest through the tree's", my dear... Change your perspective on, and/or change that, and change your life forever... FOREVER...

God Bless!

Oh my. I feel for you deeply, truly.

Life is full of pain and grief. Life is also full of good and joy.

Concentrate on what makes you happy. Is it your children? I would hope so. Is it your spouse? I would hope so.

I may be intruding too far, but have you considered third party secular counseling with your spouse? To have someone to bounce how you feel off of can be a very good thing.

God Bless You

I'm not sure what you mean by "constantly fight every day." Do you mean argue or do you mean physically fight?

If you are talking about arguing, you can try what I did. After we were both married with children, my sister would get angry at me. If I tried to justify my decisions, she would launch into an all out verbal attack. I just plain shut up. That made her angry, but she decided to go home. It takes two people to argue.

If you're talking about living with a narcissist, I suggest finding a professional counselor for yourself----the sooner, the better. Or look up narcissism online.

If you are being physically assaulted, go to a women's shelter.

I hope you decide to help yourself.

I'll pray for you. :hug:

God called you into existence so He could lavish His love upon you.

Remember the words of Jesus, "The thief comes only to steal, kill, and destroy." The devil can destroy your joy only if you let him.

Now a physical suggestion: Have you discussed your depression with your physician?

If this is clinical depression (which I think), it is a CHEMICAL IMBALANCE,not a moral or spiritual failure, and can be treated with the proper med or meds.

I know someone who suffered with CD for years, even from childhood. It was corrected a few years ago with Celexa.

You didn’t say anything about my attitude, archer. I very much appreciate your prayers, I was responding to someone else. I’m sorry. I’m still not used to using this message board. It keeps quoting ALL the replies.
