    My Hastings bargain spree

    I went to Hastings to look for used Muse and Radiohead CDs....not much luck there. I had decided to get Muse's Absolution, Showbiz, and Origin of Symmetry all for full price. But then I wandered into the book section. :doh: Here's what I came out with: What's So Amazing About Grace? - Philip...

    Does God still forgive me even if I don't forgive myself?

    How could God forgive someone who won't forgive themselves? How can I forgive myself? How can I accept God's forgiveness if I can't forgive myself?

    Books every Christian should read...?

    Besides the Bible, what would you say are some books that every Christian should have on their shelves? I wanna read some Christian classics. I have most of C.S. Lewis' works.

    Slipping again...

    I just feel like I'm being stretched beyond what I can deal with. Sin pulling on one end, God on the other. I struggle constantly with something that there is no support for. No one understands. I don't understand it either. God, please pull me out of this.

    Ready to give up....

    Deep down, that's the last thing I want to do, but I can't keep living like this. I already have depression and anxiety and it seems like trying to live for God just makes it worse instead of better. Although I'm not "happy" when I'm sinning...at least I'm not nonstop worried about what's a sin...

    The CCM Patrol

    Anybody heard of this? The CCM Patrol is a website where Christian music is allowed to get bad reviews. You might or might not have noticed that most Christian publications that review Christian music simply refuse to give albums the bad reviews they might sometimes deserve. CCM Patrol's latest...

    I need prayer...

    I don't really want this post to become a pity party or a bad episode of Dr. Phil (aren't they all? :P) where I list all my problems. But I guess I just want to get this all out. I need your prayers. I have not had any close friends in real life in about 5 years. I battle with social anxiety...
