I have been bad feelings about a lot of things for a while but it getting worse daily now. I'm so upset about my life I don't even know where to start. Its like I hate everything. I love my wife and kids but I hate everything else and I don't know what to do. I pray but no help. I hate what my life has become. I hate that I have gone to many churches but never felt at home. I hate that my wifes family are all drug heads. Every single one. I hate the fact that I'm not good at anything. I can't just keep smiling and saying its ok. I hate my past. I hate my job. I hate that I feel so different from everyone and am treated different. I'm sick of going to churches where I am treated like an outcast. I love god but I don't like church. I have never been invited to anything from any church. I can't take this much longer. I feel soooo different and it hurts so bad. I've felt like an outcast from a very young age. My wife and kids love me very much but nobody else does. I don't feel like a good husband or father. I have many areas of my life that I have tried to change but nothing ever seems to change for the long haul. I realize that there are a lot of people who don't have as much as me but things don't make a person happy. I've felt so close to god but my life bears no fruit. I just feel like such a phoney. I can't keel going in this mysery. The only thing that keeps me going is my family. If not for them I would wish to go to sleep and not wake up . Please god help me through this.

Jeremy7519, I acknowledge your pain and anger. Perhaps your past is your 'shackle'. Perhaps you are struggling with who you are and what you are to be. Your now is obscured by unresolved family issues.. Drugs/ Alcohol affect everyone in the family in devastating ways, one of many is basic distrust of others which really gets in the way of relationship with other people. If I am wrong, my sincere apologies. Just wanted you to know that I care and I encourage you to seek wise counsel. You ARE truly blessed with your wife and your children. You just can't see this now.

Lord, send him any help he needs, remove any hate he has in his heart and on his shoulders, that it not return. Let him see that he is a good person and that the enemy is trying to keep him down, that the enemy will not win. Be there for him and show him you are listening, that you will be there every step of the way. Send him your love, peace, comfort and strength. I pray for this, in Jesus name, Amen.

God loves you so much. It's He that changes us bit by bit. Keep doing what you know is right and God will so the rest. Declare scripture out loud this is powerful. God is working even when we don't see it. He has wonderful plans for you and your family ask Him to show you and keep doing good while you wait. Please google Joyce meyer podcasts God wants to encourage you.

I agree very much with Gods warrior! I too feel like an outcast, and ya know what, I am! Lol

Declare scripture out loud! And joyce is very good to encourage you. You sound depressed as well. Perhaps Christian counsel ( sec ruined me) and celebrate recovery. I will lift you up. This does sound like depression tho. And fasting is so good and powerful. Just something to keep in mind. Ladyj.praying.:groupray::prayer:
