  2. Best quote ever.
  3. Posted 1 minute ago (edited) ·  ok yesterday I had a convo with a group of people about god. I didn't initiative it , it started out about something totally different and just led up to God . So one dude didnt believe in the spirit of god... And that amazed me..his thing was being more concerns with facts: Like what was the first book of the bible, the fact its been translated so many different times and theres missing books.... but I asked, if all we have is a breathe in us-- what did Jesus come to save? And he couldn't answer that... anyway, I keep replaying it in my mind..bc this was sooo off guard for me, I wasn't prepared... I'm still healing myself from church hurt... And ..idk I just felt like ...could have been someone else, plus I wasn't there to convert anyone... In still trying to keep myself saved...basically I'm saying I'm not perfect... I just wish it hadn't occurred because I wasn't ready. --------------------- thanks you guys for all the kind answers BC I was seriously replaying everything in my mind ...but like one said.. I cant save anyone...thats the holy spirits job.. Not mine and he'll draw people to himself when hes ready.

  5. Same, caffeine makes my anxiety spike but I'm just natural anxious more on the neurotic scale -- before God came into my life i was in and out the hospital BC of hypochondria... It was such a struggle... Tbh its still a struggle now but its never as bad as it was before Christ...its still hard but.. It is what it is.
  6. I feel like you sooo much, sometimes some things are a cross to bear. Maybe its to make us dependent on God.. Whatever the situation, pray to god about any and everything.
  7. Hello there, I believe in a bit of both Arminism and Calvinism,however I lean more towards Calvinism because its in the bible and you cant explain it away... And so is free will. Here is what I make of it. We have free will but it is limited, what we do or dont do will not thwart gods plans. I feel when it comes down to it we have a will but so does God but his will is stronger and can do what ever he sets out to do. Also, I dont like arminiansism because it makes god look too weak and many times in the bible that isnt the case.
  8. This is needed. I often feel god is absent in my life too...but he's still out there .
