• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Hey guys :wave::hug:

HOw many times have we ever doubted God in the past because our feelings from OCD condemned us?

How many times have we thought that God couldnt possible love us because all we do is blasphemed His named left and right?

How many times have we thought GOd just abandoned us?

How many times have we renounced God over and over?

How bout sexual thoughts of God? (this screwed me up)

I have been through it all and without medication because I was too darn stubborn and thick headed to see that I really needed medicine. (we do need medicine)

anyway after having all these questions and blasphemies and really believing God just abandoned me because of this illness, as well as thinking i could never get Gods forgivness God gives me a dream,one that I could never forget and someone said that I should post it here as encouragment.
I had a dream quite a while ago that encouraged me.

(Here it is I pasted it from the dream forum it was buried)

Hey guys so about 2 years ago i started to really doubt my salvation and everything (i have religious OCD) and i would constantly pray to HIM one night i had this dream.

It was me standing right next to God and satan was there (for some reason it was that satan dude from southpark..) he was leading all these people into hell,
there was just lines of people headed straight for hell (it was really frightning to see how many people apprantly didnt beleive in God) Anyway i pleaded to God please dont let me go, God said to me "James i said before that hell was not for you, but please trust in what i said"

i think i woke up right after that (i dont think any of my dreams last long lol) but this one really stuck with me, while i had my doubts and didnt trust God when i was having these bad episodes, I should have trusted in what was told of me, All we need to do is trust in His word..i just wish it didnt take me so long heh :crossrc: also at the time i didnt wear a cross on me, i remember when the enemy tried telling me i failed God and that God abandoned me..it made me really upset, when i woke up i was laying on a cross of Jesus- it wasnt even mine..God really does communicate with us if we really search him with all of our hearts

God Bless you!


Ive had more encouraging dreams but ill share that later, Just remember God loves you despite youre illness. Youre intrusive thoughts, blasphemies,renouncing the HS OCD garbage dont mean nothing to God.

Do you know why?:)

Because youre sick, you have an illness. Does God condemn you when you have a cold>? I dont think so..

So my brothers and sisters know that God has something specially planned for you even if its hard to see now. And remember that He loves all of us with an undying love that can never pass away.

Somthing in my heart told me to do this and speak from my heart, so that is what this was about, may you all be encouraged
keep the faith!

Love,
James:kiss:

youre brother in Christ:angel:
