I am at a loss for what to do these days! I am mad at the world and how it works that if you have less money you can not even go to the doctors or dentist even when you really need to! The rich stay richer and the poor are poorer and everyone is taking it out on each other.. It scares me to raise a kid in this kind of environment! I am haivng so much anxiety that my stomach is in constant knots and has a constant butterly feeling in it and do not know what that is all about of if it will ever stop? I have acid reflux and can not get a GI test to see how bad it is or why it has been so persistant for past four years or if I have an ulcer or whatever cause the sharp pains in my stomach and pressure. I have no money to see if I can be helped that way to help my health anxiety and stress which will calm the physical problems associated with anxiety! I am at a point where I feel like giving up on hope because I feel like things are never going to get better! I am scared! Please pray for me! p.s. I do not need diagnosis of what maybe physically wrong it is to hard to hear b/c I literally spend money to hear you need a test and I have no insurance or money so I know I need a doctor but it does not good..just need prayers at this point that things will change and pray for my faith that I can be strong to hold on alitttle longer maybe jesus will heal me!
for good
god bless

What state are you in? I've have been unable to work for almost a year. I also have no money. It's taken me almost the whole year but I finally got insurance, tests, and medication. It takes a lot of work but there are probably resources.

This is not a crude statement, but maybe if you put your full trust in God and not half measures. Money will not be an issue. The world's troubles will not be of concern to you. All these things are meant to come top pass. And we all need to trust God more. As God will take care of you, and provide you what you need. We are to be in the world and not of it. The world is being corrupted each and every day. That's why we need to realise our trust we have in God.

Romans 12: 2. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Hebrews 11: 6. Without faith it is impossible to please God: for he that cometh to God must believe that He is (that God exists), and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.

Have a more closer intimacy relationship With God. then you will see the benefits of your trust in God. and his blessings you will receive.

Leave the world aside. Focus on God, Trust in him fully, not half measures. Because all of the worlds troubles is blinding everyone's trust in God.

Hello Friend, What you wrote sounds so familiar. We will hurt before we get to a place where God wants us to be. Learning to come to the place where the only place we can go for comfort is to God is actually a good place. Yes, while you are there now it is NO fun. It's confusing when we look through our human eyes and see the problems before us. We thought God would have taken care of this situation. If He loves us how come we r left to fend in this situation?

The good news is He has not left us to fend for ourselves. It may FEEL like that but the fact is God loves us and is ready to take the problem when we give it over to Him. Many times the problem is how we THINK about our situation. Your response to what you see in the world is making you sick physically. The thought that we are at the mercy of this unforgiving world is horrifying really. If you have asked Jesus to be your Saviour, and are a child of God, you are NOT left fending for yourself and your family.

Money gives us a false sense of security. The real security is in Jesus. Take a hold of this fact of His love for you and DAILY ask God to meet your need for faith to trust Him and not your circumstances in the world. To believe He has chosen you before the foundation of the world. He cares for you more than the birds and the pretty flowers. We get clogged up in our minds when we look around at our circumstances and not at the God of our circumstances. :)

I lost a lot of my money and didn't have a place to call home or a family anymore. If I died no one would know it. The emotions of being destitute fell over my life. But God..... He rescued me from the streets and the hopelessness. He reached out and gave the security i so badly needed to function without being sick in body and soul and spirit. He took the time to teach me how much He loved me. I was saved for many years before really beginning to trust Jesus for my needs in life.

There is real security in Him for you. He will give you the understanding you need to rise above the fear and fear of the fear. It seems like when we actually don't have any hope in this world or the people in it , that is when we start looking to Christ for what we need. He owns the cattle on a thousand hills and He can give you what you need. We have not because we ask not in faith. We may need to learn how to actually ask Him in faith to bring us out. It happends little by little. And He lets us know He actually did it. It took time to get to where you are so give God the time to teach you to not live by the fearful feelings but by the TRUTH
of His Word. He loves us with an everlasting love. He that has begun a good work in you will perform it.

So please let the Word of God encourage you. Reading the Truth and being with those who believe it and share it with you. Set your mind and keep it set on things above and not on things below. He who said it will perform it. Many more Bible verses to share. We each have to make that journey for ourselves to ask. No one can do it for us. We get on the right path and He will show us one step at a time.

I will be praying for you. Not sure if you are a male or female. You sound like a female. I hope it encourages you to know God helped me out of the pit. He loves us and He promises He is not a respector of persons. God bless you in your seeking to find a peace in daily life. This christian site is full of wonderful christians who will encourage and help you. If you ever want to chat feel free to contact me too. CC is a good place to come. In Jesus, ladylynn

I dealt with the same problems. Learn of the promises GOD.God is the great I am. That means whatever you need he is."All things shall work for the good for those who love HIM"God hasn't left you. "God will never leave you nor forsake you.""Set your affection on things above not on things on the earth""Delight yourself to the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart"Replace your flesh and the evil one's thought with God's thought and your anxiety will go away because by using God's words you are rebuking the things that cause it. Keep your eyes on Jesus, the holy spirit, and God the father.Also talk to God about your sins and whole-heartily tell God about your problems(when praying..thank and glorify God)This is what a user name Mammachickadee told me that help me and I hope it will help you."I can empathize and do pray for you. Even Paul had his thorn in the flesh. Simply confess to God. It is because it is so much on your mind that you are feeling anxious. Simply replace this old, fleshly idea, with something else."

I want to thank you all for responding!God Bless you all for wanting to reach out and encourage me! To:Ladylynn yes I am a female. I really love what you wrote it was so heart felt and packed with things that touched me with some hope and that is always an act of god using us to help others in that way it spreads hope!Keenen: I appreciate the comment and admire you putting you faith into your life and changed your life with you thoughts focused on god, that means that you are doing well and I hope that god blesses you continuously!Richie: thank you for giving scriptures to think on and to remember when I need them the world can trick us all into believeing that what is important has prices on it and conditions put on all of the things we need to live in the world, I agree that I need to learn to have the faith to not live as the world is sometimes! And to Pickles you have responded to my posts a few times now and I hope that in return the lord is touching your life in a powerful way and blessing you and your familys life!I pray that you are stronger everyday in the lord because he is using you to spread his love! Thank you to all of you and prayers going up for you all and hope to hear from you soon!

oh and Jordache my husband works and I do not so in my state that means he makes to much to get government aide care and he recieves no insurance through work plus he doesnt make enough to pay for anything but monthly expenses. I know that I should not complain about anything because he is able to pay the bills but the health problems will be put off untill someday I can get through school and pay myself I guess! I really think I may need to have faith in jesus b/c waiting on the help from the world is not a comfort at all to anxiety! lord be with my friend and bless her lord I pray that a mircale in life is about to occur in her life and bless her lord for the suffers she has as well as mine has been alot alike..lord you have sent these people around us to pray and share for a reason to help mend hearts,gain hope, and to grow faith! amen in jesus name

I live in the UK, where most health care is free. I do not have your problems with getting access to a doctor, and it has been that way all my life, so I can't really FEEL how bad your problem is.

I do suffer from health anxiety, though, and so I know what it is like to be worried about what is happening to you.

I pray that the Lord will support you, and bring you help. I pray that he will be in those around you, and those who care for you, that he will strengthen your support. I pray that he will turn the anger that you feel into a quest for right, so that you may help not only your own position, but those around you. Amen.
