    Living in fear

    And as for my love for God growing, I've had 8 years already to do that. I went at it hard. I went to Bible studies, I did Bible studies on my own, I did a prayer journal for months. And then I realized it was all just a waste of time.

    Living in fear

    By the way, I've also gone to biblical counseling with an older woman who goes to my church. That didn't work out either.

    Living in fear

    I'm 25. I have been a Christian for 8 years and I've read a ton of books like that already. I can count on probably one hand how many have actually helped me. One big problem with being on the spectrum is that relationships are not easy for me. By that I mean I don't have the wiring to...

    Living in fear

    I once read this one person's end time prediction that had something to do with the Jewish people. I know it's not possible to predict Jesus's return, but it was my reaction to it that really bothered me. I started hoping the prediction wouldn't come true. And for whatever reason, my mind...

    Living in fear

    In any event, I'm terrified by the idea of Jesus returning. Both because it means leaving everything familiar and I'll be facing God himself. It sometimes frightens me to the point where I want to cry. I know being a Christian is the right thing to do. But God honestly scares me half the time...

    Living in fear

    I tend to perseverate over things. To be honest, I know we can't predict Jesus's return. But whenever I hear a prediction, I'm reminded. I don't want Jesus to return yet! It'll mean leaving this life which is all I've ever known for the completely unknown. And the idea of finally facing God...

    Living in fear

    Hello everyone. What I'm about to say may sound weird to some people, but I don't care. I'm a Christian, but I live with a lot of fear. I sometimes feel as though I'm afraid of everything, and my faith isn't even a place I can go to for comfort. I was raised in a loving Christian family and...

    Feeling frustrated

    In any event, I'm gonna ask for early opinions/critiques anyway. One author that I like a lot did the same thing and she ended up gaining a big following. Besides, my book's not even done yet.

    I've studied several different writers. I've been writing and learning about writing for 12 years. Besides, I'm not the only author who posts their rough drafts online for feedback.

    Yes, but such things can also cost you a job or a publishing gig, not to mention reputation points.

    Feeling frustrated

    I was actually just gonna ask. The only problem though is...I've posted things here that I'm not proud of...and I don't want really want other people to see them and think wrong things about me...

    Well I'm not actually done with the book yet. And the view counts from these sites are mostly the same thing. And about fanfiction, that was how I decided to be a writer. I've been writing and honing my craft since I was thirteen (25 now) and fanfiction is a good way to practice.
