Hello All
Recently, I have been suffering from an obsession. I have this horrible obsession with the young rich ruler that came randomly. Specifically, when Jesus said "you must sell all your possessions..." so I have been having thoughts that maybe God wants me to sell my possessions. But the truth is I know it's my ocd and that it is black and white thinking and moral perfectionism. But the real problem is because I won't do what the ocd says its accusing me of being too secular or wanting to discard my faith which is not true. It feels that every time I go against my thoughts I question myself that "What if I am going against God?" "What if I don't love God enough?" What if I am in danger of being selfish or too worldly?" I just get so tired of it.
