I have always had a beautiful relationship with God. I started to backslide and feel He maybe angry. I am now suffering from debilitating anxiety, depression, addiction to the medication they gave me! PLEASE, PLEASE ask God to take all of this away. I don't know what to do I'm terrified
Hello Nicole, I've been a Christian for over 30 years now and I do slip up from time to time. And I too have backslidden. It was a terrible feeling and we do feel separated from God when we're not walking according to his will.
We'll never be perfect until we go to heaven. We will never reach sinless perfection while on this earth, however, we can strive to follow the teachings of Jesus christ. I would like to encourage you to take baby steps in following after Jesus.
Remember that God says that he remembers that we're made of the dust and he has compassion for us.
I know as for me, I always feel better when I read my Bible, and when I listen to worship music, especially the old hymns which are taken right out of the Bible.
And try to take care of yourself and your health through natural means, especially a healthy diet which has a lot to do with how we feel emotionally. If you can, try to get away from the pharmaceutical drugs. the word pharmaceutical is derived from the word pharmacia, which is rooted from the original Greek word meaning sorcery. if you think about it, you cannot drug your body into good health. All natural supplements are really the way to go.
Also, it sounds like you need to forgive yourself. As for me, that's one of the hardest things I've had to do as a Christian, and so I understand the struggle. Forgive yourself, it's the best thing that you can do in moving forward with your life, and accept God's forgiveness. He is merciful and compassionate. He loves you and he does not want to see you suffer as you are.
That you would take your time to send such a detailed response has brought me to tear's. Knowing that God is hurting because I am hurting makes me want to succeed more. I do feel closer to Him. I will continue my baby steps and keeping in his word. I will never stop reaching for Him because I need Him so badly. Thank you for caring. You have no idea how much it means!
Good morning Nicole, it was so nice to see your note this morning! I'm very happy that you were encouraged. Like I said, I know how hard it is to get out of the hole, or the rut that we can get into.
And yes, I've been there, and depressed many times. Did you know that there were other Christians and God fearing people in the Bible who suffered from depression? There really was. So you're not alone.
As far as the old hymns go, like I said they really have done a wonderful job of ministering to my hurting soul. One of my favorite places to go to listen to them on YouTube is the SE Samonte channel. They're mainly acapella which I love, and they sing many many old hymns. They have beautiful outdoor scenery in the wilderness with the songs, they include the lyrics and usually at the end of each song they put a King James Bible scripture on. I'll just have to say right up front that it is a Mormon channel, and I am not Mormon nor do I advocate Mormonism. Simply put I am a King James Bible believer. The way I see it, as long as I am just there for the music, that's okay.
Quite frankly, as a King James Bible believer, I realized a number of years ago there is no Bible for denominations! I can't remember the exact scripture but it goes something like this... One saith I am of apollos, another I am of paul, another I am of Jesus, and it should not be so! I'm paraphrasing of course.
I've got to get rolling now, I'm actually a truck driver and getting ready to head out of Nebraska and heading to Utah!
The Lord bless you and keep you, the Lord make his face to shine upon you! Have a beautiful day Nicole!
I will be praying for you! I know how it feels because I got dependent on the meds I was given and it is a horrible life because that is all you think about and worry about them taking them away from you! I never ever thought anything would get a hold of me like this did and my heart goes out to you!
hi NICOLE we are all human we can make mistake. GOD alone don't make mistake so dont give up hope sister keep praying he know ur need and ur wants before ur born he know everything trust him. read ur bible
