no, the topic of why some posters are focused on this or that is not the topic of this thread .
the topic of this thread is that God wills to and can bring anyone out of the deepest sorrow and fufill his promise to give us LIFE and that abundantly .. for the lord Jesus said it is why he came ..
and he gives us this awsome HOPE that "if we believe .. all things are possible .
Hs word is faiuthful and true .. believe it, apply it,abide in him and see .
Hos word will save you . and keep you from falling into the proverbial slough of despair
and if you have fallen in already.. his word (JESUS ) is more then able to lift you out and set your feet back upon solid ground .
Hey, i didnt start the discussion on the "focusing" thing, it just became part of the discussion. I suspect that if we go back we might see that people on both sides of this discussion are equally involved in it. I try to say in the middle because thats where i find my beliefs. I shared my testimony of how Christ helped me by following the examples in Scripture. I am not using any drugs, i never seen a doctor, i used faith, perseverance, and the scriptures guided me in hope and direction. However im not going to condemn anyone who uses drugs either, im not sure that they are bad, but for me personally i couldnt use them because i couldnt go to the doctor. I was forced to walk in faith. But im not healed, im helped. THe path of faith i follow keeps me from the pit of depression, but if i gave up on that path i would find myself back there again. So i know that i need to keep walking this path. I feel joy and so i know that its right. I do however have my battles, but experience along with guidance from scripture has taught me how to manage it, and i suppose prayer has been a blessing too. I think that i use spiritual warfare to manage it, and that is biblical.
