Messed up so bad today that my dad basically didn't even want to look at me. Sometimes I feel like they'd be better off without me. I know that's a lie but I just feel so worthless when I mess up.
I understand full well the feelings of worthlessness. As you have said, this line of thought is a lie. At times it seemed to me that my whole life has been a mess. One day this year God dramatically changed the direction of my life and now I look forward to each day.

Each day you are given a clean slate. Don't carry your baggage from the previous day to your brand new day.

It's good to be alive.

It's not exactly midnight, but I thought I'd confess, I just had a nightmare involving a library.
Seems to mean that I am still grooming the anxiety that I will forget to return the book on time (and then who knows what horrors could follow?)

I remember a story once about this guy who was rummaging in his attic and found a library book that he signed out over 30 years ago. He was sweating profusely as he called the library to explain the situation. Fortunately, the library told him to not worry about the late fees, just return the book. He was very much relieved. Good thing because if he had to pay the fine for the book being overdue he would then own the library.

I've just slipped in a post. Nothing too terrible, I just went blabla when I shouldnt. Pointed out that the two persons debating might be saying the same thing just in different terms, nothing too bad in that but the thing is I shouldnt have talked because I wasnt really led to by the Spirit and for that reason I also said it in a bleh way which I realized after I posted.
My parents always argued. That makes me always be set on fire to cancel all conflicts and arguments and while it can be good (I'm a natural peacemaker) it sometimes gets in the way of wiser things.
I'll take comfort that at least I didnt not slip in a series of wrong-toned posts like I did here earlier. I apologized then and continued in a better way. I take comfort that God is at work. May He have me only speak up to build up and as led. amen

I have been harboring thoughts of anger toward some people on CC and this is not who or what I want to be or do. I know better I am old enough to know better. God please forgive me and give me a heart that is willing to open to Your Spirit and to obey Your prompts. The real enemy is out to get us and I don't want to fall in his trap so please Dad help me to trust and obey You. Help me to be kinder to those I come in contact with and to be open to their hurts and needs to put others above myself. Help me to learn to love them as You do and to pray for them and their trials that face them. I lift them up to you now and ask for a Spirit of forgiveness so the air can be cleared and the purpose You have placed before me will be fulfilled to Your honor and glory. In Jesus Name Amen.

Dad it has been just you and me for quite some time and I wanted to thank You for bringing that special someone in my life. All the years of loneliness will soon be gone and there will be someone to share life again with. It is so nice to have that someone special to talk to and he loves You too Dad which makes it even more wonderful. You know that we will begin our married life next week and I ask that You come into our hearts and always dwell there, help us to lift You up to those we come in contact with, help us to live our lives so that others will see Jesus shining through.

Please lead us and help us fulfill the purpose You have in mind for both of us. We will make mistakes and I pray that You will be with us and help us to look to You during those times and come running to You to help us get back on track, that we will always say kind words to each other and keep You in the number one spot always.

Help us to develop a strong connection with You and come to the family alter in worship to You and with You each and every day. Help us to pray more and keep the connection we need to be able to stand strong with You in our hearts against the devil and any trials he may try and send our way.

Dad it won't just be me anymore next week we will be three. Keep us close to You until You come and take us home. Bless our union I pray in Jesus Name Amen.

Dear Heavenly Father
Please be with us both as we start our new life together as husband and wife. Let us to always remember to place You first in our marriage for that is our intention. Please remove from my thoughts the things which do not belong there that will hinder me from becoming the most loving and faithful husband to the woman who is to become my wife. I thank you for trusting me with this most beautiful of creations and I will do my best to live up to Your expectations and with Your help I will go beyond them. We both come to You now in prayer as our new life is about to begin and we start anew loving each other and working together for Your glory.

Much better than the Sprint missiles. Sprint became famous for being the first missile ever to shoot itself down. It was discarded as invalid, unless you're fighting a war you want to lose.

I confess (at 6am) that I had a ridiculous dream last night, and it did involve Mome wraths, which were something out of Alice and Wonderland. My brain comes up with some seriously weird things.

A lot of residents of CC suffer from chronic insomnia. It is nothing to be ashamed about as this site is addictive in nature.
