Call out in the name of Yahshua the Messiah and ask for strength and comfort.

Accept him and let him speak up for you, let him guide you always so that you can see the light and follow it through whatever experience comes your way.


Knowing that we are loved by Yahvah God and Yahshua the Messiah is a wonderful thing, and you are loved and desired.


So call out my friend and live for the Glory of Yahvah God and Yahshua the Messiah.

MJ, Jesus said if we feel those things we should try and remember the cross. Just imagine what He felt like when they came to arrest Him for the crucifixion. I do that when I am down, then my day seem very blissful again.

You are beautifully and wonderfully made
God shaped you in your mothers womb
He planned you before you were born

There will be sorrow and pain, and times when it all feels like it'd not worth it, but God is still there.
That doesn't always feel like much of a comfort, but it does mean that you can cry out to Him and share your pain.

Do something you enjoy, (Reading? Exercise? Writing? Dancing? Sitting in the bath with heaps of lit candles around?)
If you need a hug, ask for one. If you just need someone to be around, ask for that.
Keep talking to God.

I believe we are allowed to complain to God, to share our grief or our lack of feelings, but remember that thanking Him, even if it feels "fake" then and there, can help you look more positively at things. Even if it is something silly like "that was a funny cloud, thank you Lord".

hi my friend.. its like im reading my own old story we have the same story that was exactly me the girl who is shy and always have low self esteem and always thinking about my past and thinking about what people may think about me,,,but when i accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior in my life and study all his word,i have found out,, that areas of my life was all lie...i have found the truth in God's word " if you know the truth, the truth will set you free"
,
i know for now its hard for you but step by step if you accept and follow Jesus in your life,, then he will change your life...He will turn your sadness into joy, doubt into faith, despair into hope and you will live victorious life,, we must have a strong foundation, a foundation that no storm will prevail against and a heart that can test its thoughts and attitudes by being confirmed thru the knowledge of the word of God...i pray that the work of enemy in your life will be destroyed because he steal your joy in your life...

remember this verse and meditate on it..

Jeremiah 29:11
11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

2 Timothy 1:7
For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.

Matthew 11:28
Then Jesus said, "Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.

Deuteronomy 31:6
So be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid and do not panic before them. For the LORD your God will personally go ahead of you. He will neither fail you nor abandon you."

Dear friend,

You must try to see yourself as God sees you. You are His precious child. He loves you, totally and unconditionally. He made you. You turned out exactly the way He intended. Any negative feelings you are having about yourself are self-inflicted. I know it is hard, sometimes, to shake those feelings but if you really ask God, He will gather you in His loving arms and soothe your pain. The Appostle, Paul, assured us that, "I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Romans 8:38-29)

And don't give up on praying. Paul also told us, "In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans. And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God." (Romans 8:26-27) Sometimes, the most effective prayer in the world is "help!".

God be with you in your struggles.

I would encourage you to seek the mercy of God, He loves you dearly, and you are letting satan cause you to doubt your life and purpose.

You must come broken before God, seeking His mercy, and get rid of ALL that is keeping you in bondage to sin, seek first His kingdom and His rightousness, lay aside all wickedness and filthyness, and seek His truth with a pure heart.

I dont know you, but if you are allowing satan to get a foot hold in your life by what you put into your mind, then you willbe in constant turmoil and confusion!

Most professing Christians cant figure out why they are so depressed and in bondage to vile sins, and worldliness, loving thier vain entertainments,vile movies, books,and video games, while they struggle with peace with God!

It wont happen unlless you come to God on His terms, yes His mercy is longsuffering, but not for long, He is asking you to repent of anything that is causing you to fall into sin, remove the temptation, and clear your heart.

Walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
Rom 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

There is a huge difference between walking after the spirit, and waking after the flesh. Most think they are in the spirit when they have never come to Christ and salvation on His terms!
Most also think that the NO condemnation part is a done deal, when they confess the sinners prayer, admit they are a poor sinner, and accept Jesus into their heart, when in reality nothing happened, they are still defiled and double minded, but their pastor tells them now you are free from any condemnation what so ever!
Even though they are still in their unconverted carnal state, sold under sin! This is what is being produced today by the multitudes thinking they are safe and saved, under NO condemnation, because Romans 8-1 says so, but they fail to see the to do part of this very critical verse from Romans!
Yes, there is NO condemnation for those who are IN Christ, who have crucified their flesh with Him, Galatians 2-20, through real repentance and faith, and are now walking in the newness of life, free from the bondages of sin, temptation and the devil, not by some magical substitution, but by the power, and blood of Christ, who came as a sin offering, to ransom sinful mankind from the corrupting influences of sin! Hebrews, 9-14. Plus forgive mankind for all their past sins. Romans 3-25.
If a real conversion happens as described in James 1-21-22, through real repentance and faith, both proven by a changed heart, made pure, sincere and full of love, walking in the spirit while keeping the deeds of the flesh dead, then there is now no condemnation, for those who are IN Christ, crucified to the flesh and its harmful desires, being sensitive to the spirit and its leading.
If you walk IN the spirit then you cannot be also walking in the flesh, its either one or the other, thus the condemnation comes to those who return to their vomit, re crucifying Christ again and again, for willful, presumptuous sins that should have been put to death at conversion.
Gal 6:7 Do not be deceived, God is not mocked. For whatever a man sows, that he also will reap.
Gal 6:8 For he sowing to his flesh will reap corruption from the flesh. But he sowing to the Spirit will reap life everlasting from the Spirit.
IF you are walking the crucified life in all humility and power of the spirit within, then condemnation will be lifted off your soul, as you remain IN the spirit, producing the fruits of the spirit, and guarding your heart from the temptations that so easily ensnare those who have never done their first works in repentance, stepping in and out of the light, and remaining carnal and double minded!!
Rom 8:6 For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace
Rom 8:7 because the carnal mind is enmity(an enemy) against God, for it is not subject to the Law of God, neither indeed can it be.
Those who have gone through a true conversion, and have come to God broken in repentance, cleansed and purged of all known vile sins against Him, are now not under the condemnation of God, because they have crucified their flesh as commanded, Galatians 2-20, walking IN the light of Christ, so all they do, will be with a sound mind and heart, the motives will be pure, with good intent, and all done in love and sincerity, not for selfish gain, fulfilling the lust of the eyes and the pride in self, but with a heart geared to obedience to the truth, a living active obedience which will be imputed to us by faith, which is also the same as obedience to the commands of God which are not burdensome!
So the purity of the heart is crucial in all aspects of a real conversion, because without this heart purity, made possible through our free will and ability to obey from the heart, forsake all know sin, as the whole city of Nineveh did, then coming broken before God in an acceptable state, it will be impossible to walk in the spirit, and receive NO condemnation from God, as Romans 8-1 states, but a life filled with sin repent, sin repent, sin repent, and I mean fornicate, repent, get drunk repent, lie, cheat steal repent, etc..
God made it clear, the pure in heart will see Him, and please Him, and I don’t mean a perfect heart as perfect as God’s, BUT a heart that has been purified completely, by laying aside all wickedness and filthiness, and now ready to receive His implanted word with all meekness and humility, and not all the many neglected scriptures you never hear in church, or they tell you they never apply to you, are now totally understood, and adhered to, because they keep you in His grace, as you obey them, by denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, then living soberly, righteously and godly in this present age, where grace isn’t abused or taken in vain, and the great condemnation of God is lifted, as you walk in the spirit, and the new life In following Christ on the narrow road!

Get on top of your mountain of decision making and survey your life and your decisions. What's in front of you is where you need to go. What's behind doesn't matter anymore. To your left and right are the people you care about and love. What we do now morally, physicailly, mentally and spiritually can speak to our situation and where we are going. If we are going to do things that will keep us down, further from the truth or will cause us to go through a cycle of turmoil to no avail. Or our decisions now can be the factor that can further God's will for our future.
When I feel like this I pray to ask the Lord to help me overcome, to help me to sleep, to help me to clean, to help me to be more loving. And sometimes I have to give things to God because I'm not in control he is.

Try reading ecclesiastes because life is sometimes meaningless and loveless. And sometimes the answers are before us. If we just ask him and have faith in him.

Ecclesiastes 4:4-6
4Again, I considered all travail, and every right work, that for this a man is envied of his neighbour. This is also vanity and vexation of spirit. 5The fool foldeth his hands together, and eateth his own flesh. 6Better is an handful with quietness, than both the hands full with travail and vexation of spirit.

Ecclesiastes 10:8-9

8He that diggeth a pit shall fall into it; and whoso breaketh an hedge, a serpent shall bite him. 9Whoso removeth stones shall be hurt therewith; and he that cleaveth wood shall be endangered thereby.

God bless i pray for God to be with you and love you more and more. And show you he love you and is with you more and more. In Jesus name amen. God will never leave you or forsake you. The bible says For the people of this world are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the people of the light. This shows the weakness of his own God's children. So we must pray for strength but not our own but God's strength.

God told the samaritan women who was not perfect by all means. In the future people will neither worship God on this mountain, neither in Jerusalem. For God seeks true worshipers those who worship him in spirit and in truth.

When I read your post...my heart ached for you.
Being a mother of five kids myself, I remember having days like this.

Put on Christian music, look up God's promises, call a friend for prayer...don't be afraid to ask for help.

Father surround her with the joy of Your strength, give her Your perfect peace and may she feel Your Love!
Place people in her life to mentor her and uplift her spirit!
In Jesus Name, Amen

Praying for you sweetie...strength and guidance from the Holy Spirit. Please get out and do things...walks, shopping, anything that will get you out of the house and around people. Sounds like you're in a deep depression :(. Call friends and family members, go to church. Make yourself do things even if you don't want to; especially if you don't want to.

Many churches have counselors who will help you through this. Remember...you are not alone unless you choose to be. God did not create us to be hermits; we are social creatures by design. Our Creator loves us more than we can ever understand. Satan will steal our joy if we do not actively try to protect it. Don't let him do that!

Praying for you that people will come into your life who can help you find your way....what was lost can be found :).

You say you can't pray, no, you won't pray. You better pray! Darkness has come into your life. You alone do not posess the power to help you with this situation. You mention your past. Whatever it is you better give it to Christ to work out. Your children are depending on you to get up from your crying and feeling sorry for yourself and be their mother. Humble yourself before the King of Kings Jesus the Christ! Bow before him and invite Him to be the lord of your life. Satan is depending on you not to pray. He's depending on you to stay stuck in this situation. All of Heaven is cheering for you, c'mon MJ you can do it! Love Always Flight316
