Hello, hope you're well

[aritsotle]

I am from California. Working on getting life steady. In the meantime, struggling with the balance of studying, working and attending church (and helping at church). For some reason there is such a limit of time and vigor. I am sure God is wise in how he works with us. However I am a little tired and have been slipping in a few different ways. I'd like to have a forum to go where I can talk to others. I know it doesn't replace real fellowship but it may help me avoid going into a feeling of embracing lonership. That's actually a temptation for me. At least I want to try and talk.

Thanks for letting me join the forum.

Hi @aritsotle and welcome to the forum. Depend heavily on the Lord and he will keep you going. Repent and go on and don’t sweat the small stuff. Gods blessings to ya for all you are doing. Keep it up and I’m sure you will find peace.

Welcome! Look forward to seeing you around!

Have you become a "SEEKER"? Do you know and are you using "THE ONE AND ONLY TEACHER" that God assigned to you? Hint John 14:26

In terms of seeking and finding, I think I don't ask. It's because I lack faith. I lack faith in my ability to understand the Teacher. Sometimes I just don't know what to do. If that's a seeker, I'm a seeker. But if it isn't, then I'm not.

I have gotten some very great and precious promises that made me very happy. Only, I'm no good. I made a mess.

It was after that I started wondering how high the stakes are, when God knows what I want even when I don't know it yet.

You may already know, but I don't know. They seem high and the scourgings continue.

I misunderstood the notice during sign up which said that the forum is for Christians only now. I thought it meant there wouldn't be unbelievers here. I don't know what the announcement meant. Was it for specific forums?
