"Strongholds"?

[jonojim1337]

I'm thinking if the Biblical concept of a "stronghold" is a repeating pattern in your life? Because I notice, that my life has the same, utterly miserable, most pathetic, recurring "theme", "square one", A Groundhog Day of the same repeating puke everyday? Same thing for 30 years. And even though I learn more about Christ, I am back to Square One, of not knowing what to do and where to go, and things seeming too late, or too little time, or out of reach, and whatever you decide is the wrong thing, and you lose your chances, etc. Has anyone gotten out of this?

There is hope in Jesus. Prayer, church, reading. Freedom, love, forgiveness. If you’re talking about ocd or something. then you are going to need some help.

I think it has to do with an identity I developed when I was a kid. It's a individual that is not a part of any aspect of anything, and, therefore, the identity has stuck to this time, since "I'm not a part of it" doesn't age. So I don't know what to replace it with I guess.

But I find a lot of hope in searching for the Rightful Ruler, let me tell you that.

Prayer for what’s closest to you and being the living word. Will lead you to a new identity. You sound so detached!?

We can not earn our way to heaven .... period!

Yes, we stumble around a lot ... God knows and understands what we deal with ... but ... He provides forgiveness. We fall down ... He lifts us up ... every day is a new day with the Lord. Square one ... is Jesus ... he goes through everything with us whether caused by ourselves or something/someone else.

So square one being Jesus .... yes we are always led back to that starting point and we rest in that ... knowing we will have great challenges and we have help to overcome and/or endure them.
