IN HIM by April written april 9th 2009 In His blood I am made clean All of my pain and scars are gone In His eyes I am perfect in everyway though I sin and am a hypocrite though I think I am never going to be good enough His love guides me In His hands I am held and am forever his precious child.

And He said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for My strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 2 Corinthians 12:9 I will praise Thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvelous are Thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.

It has been over a year and half and you have spoken out 15 times! It is healing to speak out with praise and thankfulness to Him publicly! Your testimony is overwhelmed by this truth in His Word- 1 John 4:17-19 17 Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world. 18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love. 19 We love Him because He first loved us. NKJV Rom 8:1-2 8 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death NKJV John 10:28-30 28 And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father's hand. 30 I and My Father are one." NKJV I am glad I am a witness of this! Love Steven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So depressed, they hadn't the energy to get out of bed. It can take a toll on a person. It can effect one not just emotionally, but physically. I suffer from bipolar disorder. At times, I suffer very severe depression. Then at times, I am extremely filled with joy. I, as well, am schitzophrenic. I have suffered with it all my life. Most of my life I have faced demons who weren't really there or strong delusions that had me walking the streets at night in search of nothing. I have overcome a lot of my troubles with the help of God and medication. I inherited my disorders from one of my parents. Both of my parents are bipolar, one of them is as well schitzophrenic. I can't live a normal life, because my mind isn't normal. =) I do want to say I'll pray for you. You inspire me to be grateful for who I am no matter the troubles. Thanks!

I have no incentive, no ambition, and am not really living. I am disabled and stay at home which causes me not to have a feeling of purpose and accomplishment. I could go on with the story but will not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
