could be using some advice or prayer ..

[GodOwnsMe]

I'm just not feeling very well..I've been very confused..woke up wondering if God loves me and stuff....I don't even know what to say anymore..
it always gave me so much comfort and safety to just say to myself that God will love me whatever happens..whatever I do and it'll be enough after I almost 'broke down'..whatever I just couldn't deal with all the pressure anymore..I mean wow jesus says my burden is light.........I think I've probably been pushing myself..longer story..I just can't even think clearly anymore.........I once started doubting that it's be 'enough' and .............I dunno all the peace is gone....I just feel like whining at people but I dunno what to do......wow God Bless you.

Relax. Just know that He loves you, and that you are safe in Him. He has got you when you feel up, and He has got you when you feel down. Depend on Him to be the adult and the strong one. Let Him carry you. Rest in Him. Your screen name says it all. God owns you!
I have no idea what is going on in your life or what kind of burdens you are under... but I do know that 15 is a tough time these days. It was tough enough when I was, and that was a long time ago. I have 4 kids who all made it through those days and have gone on to college etc..
The most I can say it to get in with a good Christian youth group(if you are not already) and hang with those kids when you can. It is exceedingly difficult to be a Christian at the age of 15 and in school. At least it was when I was a teen.

If there is something bad happening in your life, do not hesitate to get help! Talk to parents, pastor, school counselor, family doctor, what ever!  Don't try to do this alone. It is nice to be able to talk to people online like this.. But get some real face-to-face contact with someone.

If it is just stress… then go to a movie, a music concert, just something to get away from the problems. Maybe try a youth Bible study!

Go loves you. And as much as online friends can, we do to.

[GodOwnsMe]

aww thank you so much for caring...
there isn't really anything 'going' in my life I was
more referring to my faith and stuff....
Some months ago I've had an awesome, life-changing
expirience..............my life before was 'not so cool' especially
from God's point.......I didn't want that anymore and
well..'pushed' myself to live like the bible say and stuff......
well it didn't always work and ......I dunno when I was confused
it was the worst thing......like some days ago I was very confused
again and then read a book that was confusing me even more
(about being filled with the spirit and stuff by Bill Bright)
and I just didn't know what t believe anymore.....I wanted to
do it right and couldn't deal with the pressure anymore......
God got me out there.....I got that he would ALWAYS love me and that
this would be enough for me...............I was still pretty scared
and......well if the pressure and fears came I again I've told myself
and if you'd kill the whole world God would love you and that'd be enough..
then I was like..........wait.......really ??
I just had to find the word 'must' or anything 'pressure-like' in the bible
and again I didn't know what to believe..............if God would love me......
I am now feeling a lot better now....................I am still kind of dealing
with these doubst.........it wasn't all easy to write this down ...
its like what if I am wrong and reject the truth because I can't deal with
it or satnd it ? Then again..........God has showed me his love so often
and wow...

 

[Blessed-one]

i'll be praying.
Never doubt God's love, GoDowNsMe, He loves you enough to die for you (and resurrected!). Read the old testament, and you'll see how the prophets sometimes questioned God, they complaint to Him and accused Him, but He answered out of anguish, and the prophets were basically shouting God's word and God's love for us (only, at that time, the Israelites refused to come back to Him).

read the bible and keep praying! you'll be fine!

 

[GodOwnsMe]

wow thanks a lot
I still can't figure things out..like not at all.
I can only tell you what has worked for me.
Like God loves me, thats enough, and I am doing this because I love him.

I just can't do things out of pressure anymore, any 'must' makes me feel guilty and horrible. I don't know if I am actually getting 'the point'.
I'm just confused, scared and empty.
Like my mom just told me to care about school. At the moment I am feeling very very well compared to before......I believe thats a Huge Blessing..so I didn't panic or anything but wow that was too much !! (he that sounds kinda dramatic ..I don't think it really is but anyway.) I can't do it with that motivation !!! I know that the bible tells us that we have to be obedient. Well, the two most important commandments are about love.
I just can't figure it... I wanted to do it right. Then I was just so close to God and there was no pressure but peace and now its just none of both I guess. Its all getting me so far away from God but I know hes the only one who can get me out here. Its like a huge wood in front of my head.

 

[GodOwnsMe]

its like I had lost all sense and direction...I just won't see thru I hate it

 

[fieldmouse3]

I'll be praying for you to rediscover your direction. Keep turning to God!

 

[GodOwnsMe]

wow thanks
at the moment I'm just wondering what I have to do, like I mean
my life belongs to God, not to me.
Phew I am just wondering how to take the pressure I am feeling
and where it comes from. Maybe its like what I do, I want to do out of
love.
Then, since each second of my life is owned by God, maybe the point
is just how to serve him and be enabled.
Jesus said my burden is light. I often feel it is such a huge responsbility,
like the knowlegde of eternety that I just can't stand it and just run away.
Thats mostly what happens when I realize what will happen to the lost
like, if you'd really love them....................I just pray that this thought
will not confuse or scare anyone in a bad way.
I am not quite sure what is expected from me........if thats even the right
words, and how to go it on without breaking down under the pressure.
People's views on this seem to be contradicting, but I trust in God to show me the way. Cause he loves me I just sometimes hope I will let him.
God Bless you all I love you

...I mean wow jesus says my burden is light...

Jesus said HIS burden is light. The burden HE gives you is light. The burden you take on yourself might be MUCH heavier.

Lord, please show godownsme what things you gave her and what things she borught on herself, and show her how to get rid of the unnecessary stuff that she has taken on without consulting You. Make her burden light. Amen.

 

[GodOwnsMe]

thanks I am feeling your prayers and God's love its amazing
yeah thats probably the thing
its like the message that actually (at least partly)turned my life around was that God's love is enough. I read stuff in the bible like Romans 2/7..you know like 'trying hard for God'..dunno what to call that..........I've 'always' remembered me of that stuff and wanted to give everything......then became very upset when I failed.............yeah its like God showed me many things but I misunderstood............now I don't think I should be afraid of misunderstanding 'at all' anymore.....that was another thing that got me so down because God's gonna love me no matter what.
thanks for caring God Bless you
