I'm so tired

[beetlequeendiva]

I am so tired of fighting - do you ever feel like that? Just like everything is pointless...... i don 'tknow.....

Yes, things sure can seem pointless sometimes. I think this tends to happen when we focus on ourselves or our problems too much. Sometimes just beginning a new day helps. I open my bible and read a bit, and things don't seem so pointless anymore. The sun comes up, the birds sing.....things aint so bad

God bless you heaps and heaps for today!

I know there is a point I just sometimes feel like there is not one!!!

I know exactly what you're talking about diva. The closer I get to God the more I realize that this is really all about loving God first and then loving your neighbor. We live in a dying world. Really. I wish there was another way, but there just isn't. This is just life. I love to write...lol Anyways, I get so tired of this! lol, But God never closes one door without opening another...and that's the fun part. Knowing that there's more ahead of you if you give Him the time He needs. "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life." He's the only way we'll ever overcome anything. I think by staying together (in a church, groups, communities, forums, whatever) it makes it a little easier. I don't think that that means that we are to just become completely dependent on other people...of course we are, but we must first be dependent on God. Sometimes it's hard to persevere, sometimes it's hard to do the things we don't want to do, but that's just the way it is, and the great thing to know is that it gets easier. The closer you get to God, the easier it gets. And then I think there comes a point where you just don't care, then it gets really fun...lol There came a point in my life where I just got tired of all the "fun" and was ready to get down to business. We all experience something like that at times in our life. Most of my early life I spent thinking things like "This too shall pass" and just doing my best to get through things...I always did. Then things began to slow down, and it got easier. But, when that happens, you have to be careful to hold on to what you have, or it can be easily taken away from you...or you can be deceived. The important thing is to stay with it...forever...take what comes your way, and always lean on God's promises. He'll always bring you through!!! No matter how tough it gets.

YEP. I can totally relate. That's what I've been fighting really hard for almost a year and a half straight, now... and before then, although it wasn't quite as severe most of the time... but yeah, I get sick of trying sometimes.

What I do is I tell God, I can't do this. You do it for me. Let me have a break, let me sleep and such... and provide stuff for me. I don't have the strength to keep trying... so You have to try for me and let me have rest. I also scream at God sometimes, lol He wants us to be real with Him... and it's much better to express all my feelings rather than hold them in and be doing far worse later on. He's big enough... He can take it.

It's still difficult, but it's at least kept me (somewhat) sane.
