Hey, I've been having a problem recently. I keep thinking things in my head that I don't want to think. They've been horrible, sinful things, but I can't make it stop. I've already asked for support about this on this site, and I've already gotten encouragement from others. What I'm concerned about is the things I ask for. I've started to ask for things in my head that I don't want because of this problem I have. My question is, will God listen and do those things, even if I don't want them? I'm sorry if you don't understand the question, no one else really seems to understand when I ask. I just need reassurance that He won't listen to the things I ask for but don't actually want.

I have to refresh my mind with Gospel readings on a weekly basis. The good word might overcome bad temptations. You might try the Gospel According to John. Drugs and alcohol can cause brain damage, causing the thought process to go astray. Better to be into health food than drugs, tobacco and alcohol.Hey, I've been having a problem recently.

Edit:
I didn't phrase it very well in the original post, but basically something inside me makes me ask for something I don't want in a single quick unwanted thought, and I take it back immediately. It isn't in prayer, it's a quick unwanted thought. Will He listen to that and do those things? It's hard to explain, so I'll give an example. I thought something in my head like "dang" me (except, the actual word. I don't feel comfortable typing it). Obviously, I don't want that, so I took it back immediately. I just need some reassurance that He won't listen to those things.
