I am going to distance myself from this website for a while. I need to focus more on my health, and God instead of the things I can not change.

God will give me the opportunity needed to change the things that I can.

Which is myself.

Please keep me in prayer.

In truth, soul searching must be done. I feel that the devil had sent one person to question my methods, to try to destroy my very foundation of faith.

this had happened before even while in the process of writing my book. I have placed the user on ignore by a very good friend who made the suggestion.

no one should feel belittled, or even hassled in an environment that is supposed to be loving, and supportive of everyone.

my friend had helped me by expressing certain things to me. in realization why should I hinder others I could help or they could help me by leaving over one user?

that is why I asked for prayer sometimes answers come fast, as others they come later and then later.

it was a feeling of intense grief I received from this user and that is the work of the devil. The user is blocked, now I can breathe again.

I am thinking that perhaps this is me. Oh well. I've been challenged far worse and in truly obnoxious fashion by some here, but it took more than that for me to block them. Plus, my challenge was a legitimate critique what was written. That's not "from the devil", truly an overreaction from hypersensitivity -- IF I am the one being referred to. If not, then ignore everything just written :D

Well in that case, I'm sorry you are experiencing something that is discouraging. Sometimes you do need to distance yourself from people, even Christians. Any relationship, in this sinful order, can become toxic.

Well, the most vital important fact is Christ, but yes, we do agree on this pragmatic matter.

Absolutely, people I fallow I will not block. I fallow them for a reason. Even a Christian needs help from time to time and that is what God sends.

When I was getting my book ready for publishing I had high blood pressure and bad headache because I read something I thought was very wrong.

I spoke to my friend who is a chaplain, he said I was right is what I had written. That attach was to try to make me stop the presses. I did not stop them I kept going.

Hmm... are you sure you should stop publishing if the devil is the one trying to stop you? Or am I misunderstanding?

Everything that I had put in the book is from my blog. My blog is in my about section.
 
Apart of my healing journey is that I reconnected with my older brother. He and I really had a bad past. The day I saw him was the only day in our lives he told me he loved me.

Threw me for a loop. He needs prayer though he is losing his eye sight, and his health is not the best.

But... that you are able to begin a reconciliation is good. If worse comes to worse and he was to pass on, at least the parting will have been on good terms. You don't want the other.
