I have been getting serious with someone lately, I need prayer and direction. At times I feel inadequate and insecure, these feeling effect our relationship negatively. I have struggled with anxiety and insomnia for 4 years now and it is taking its toll on my joy and our relationship. I am usually stubborn and don't reach out to others, I appreciate your advice and prayers. God Bless!

You are in my prayers in Jesus's name for all needed.

Keep this simple scripture in mind when feeling inadaquate....
It is in our weaknesses, that God's power is made perfect. :)

Praying for you, that God will reach you in that spot and help you get out of it. amen
Whenever I am confused, I find it helpful to not talk at God... aka express myself in prayer... just still my mind instead and actively wait and listen to His small voice, until He speaks up and says what He has to say. He will give us His wisdom to fix the problem.

Are you born again?

If you are,then you have the conquoring spirit of little david killing giants.

IOW,in your mind the giants are impressive.
This is called fear of man,and it is a bitter,bitter pill.

You need to really look hard into delivernce my friend.
I walked with this same torment for decades. Its root is mixing sin with your walk,and once you kick it out,you will litterally float off the ground with joy,feeling that thing evicted fom your soul.

I'm going to make a suggestion in addition to praying for you.

I recommend looking into the work of Brene Brown. She has a couple of TEDTalks on youtube, in addition to being the author of many books. She has done research in the fields of shame, vulnerability, and whole-hearted living. I think you might find some of her information useful.

I'll be praying for the Holy Spirit to continue his work within you.

Praying for you that Gods loving light touches you, and gives you peace to sleep better. And that Gods love will give you strength to believe in yourself, with all you are inside, so you can give this woman you love ALL of your love, and I pray for you to never give up on her if you believe she is the one for you. Amen
