Hey guys,

Kinda need advice or any word of encouragement.

Things in my life are going well but I don't know what to do with my life. I have been diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia & I'm sick of being paranoid. I have been on different medications & different doses. The one I'm on now works best for me which is great! But it's been 5 years since I've finished high school, 5 years since I've been diagnosed with this mental illness. I've tried doing a proper course - twice. But because I felt uncomfortable going bathroom every 5 minutes which made me paranoid as well (I have type 2 diabetes), I ended up dropping out. I felt like I didn't fit in. I don't know what to do. I am taking some classes they have for people who have a mental illness/drug or alcohol addiction & they're great! But I know I can do better. The classes are simple but helpful. They have classes such as self esteem, walking group, diabetes educaiton & cooking (which is what I'm taking this term), etc etc. I don't know what to do. I've lost everyone that I use to be close to cause they don't understand my illness or what I go through. I am TIRED. I've prayed, I've talked to god, I'm going to church and all but I don't know what to do. I feel so useless and I have no friends. I really want to get out there but I fear people. Long story short I'm not the type who can stand up for herself & in person I'm such a quiet girl! I haven't told anyone yet but I feel like giving up this life. I don't know how I'm gonna do it. But I really am tired. Sometimes I wonder why I'm going through this.I'm trying to face my fears by going to places I avoid and get use to being around alot of people cause I fear big crowds. But I dunno anymore. I'm so lost. I don't want to live like this for the rest of my life.

 

Any advice, word of encouragement or anything will be helpful.

Kay!

God bless you. It is very hard. I know you must struggle daily. If your disorder wasnt enough add diabetes on top. Wow! All I can tell you is God loves you. He made you and there is some plan in place for your life so do not at any point give up! I have been praying for you and will continue. I am glad and proud of you in your progress that you are making with your classes. I know it seems long and drawn out but it just takes different people different stages. Everyone progresses differently.

Continue to take your meds and try your best to control your blood sugar. This will help alot. Do you exercise? That may help you to feel better too. Keep in touch with your counselor or therapist.

Praying. God bless you!

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
