What do you struggle with the most in your life?

[forrestkc]

As a Christian here in the modern world trying to live the life that Jesus wants us to live, what do you constantly struggle with?

This is something I think about a lot. For me, I think above all else, it is materialism. It

I think I struggle most with finding my security in Christ and not in...well, a bunch of other things...used to be how much boys liked me, for instance. Now it tends to be weird things, like how well people think I keep house or cook, things like that.

The word struggle for me indicates those situations that I have great difficulty surrendering to God, and in my life so far there is only one struggle it is the stronghold of smoking, I am growing more convicted by the day and not a day goes by that I am not convicted yet I do the very thing I hate! There are many areas of life where I am learning to be obedient to the Lord and change can be a bit of a struggle but for me truly this stronghold is the struggle of surrender I need to overcome. I am learning to reevaluate old beliefs that may have me stuck in this , but so far another day another day of hope that this day will be Victorious

patience..God is teaching me patience everyday thus I am struggling with it. Think it will be with me for a while yet.

I struggle with listening to God. I know His plan is the best of all, but I still find myself trying to grab those reigns...its a tough habit to get rid off. But with the love of Jesus I know that someday this isn't going to be so difficult...

I struggle with what seems to be greatly known as "teenager things" such as guys, finding a place in a world and just things of a particular nature in general. As for finding a place in teh world, carnality is a big issue in trying to make sure I am not trying to be the center of attention and then finding that balance between liking a guy, and that guy just being my friend.

The worst thing for me has to be wanting to fit in in the world, but once I "fit in", I want out- aka, go back and hide in my shell.. but I need to make that "shell" and that place of "fitting in", to be in the arms of the Lord Jesus Christ.. in other words, not desiring either, but always being content in the Lord and not wandering from that no matter what the circumstances

Oh yes, huge one.... not talking bad about those in authority over me, aka, teachers (you know.. like those that stab themselves with pencils )

Procrastination. It seems to be one of those things I can never seem to change, no matter how hard I try.

You know, I re-read my post that started the thread, and I don't like how I worded it at all. It kind of came off like "I am doing well, but I choose not to spend my extra money". That is not true though, because I blow my money just like most people do. It is more to put it simply, its that I wish I could live simpler than I do, and reject greed and materialism, because I feel that is what God wants me to do, but I have a hard time doing it.

I struggle with anger at God because my body is failing me and I want to live a bit longer because of my sons.

I struggle with feeling insignificant and being a nobody.

Seems as though I am invisable most of the time.

Like noone would notice if I just disappeared.

sounds like a pity party, but you asked.
