okay this is a weird question but I ask those alot. Ive been asking God about my writing and I hear a voice in my head that says no. But I can also make this voice say yes and it says yes to reading the bible. But it said no to nearly everything else I ask it. Like should my books include violence, or can I still read the books I like. Pretty much no to every thing I like to do. I suffer from Asphergers, OCD, GAD quite a few mental illnesses so i've learned I cant trust my brain. Do you think God would be this harsh and deny me everything I like to do? Or is this a trick to drive me away from God because thats what it feels like its doing. Oh and this is also the same brain thats been telling me to watch porn for over twelve years so there's that. Should I ignore this voice or give up everything I love and pretty much stop living?

God is being harsh to you by saying no to you including violence in your books? I don't think so..lol.. Why would you even WANT to write about violence to begin with? If there weren't so much violence today this world would be alot better off.

well for one Im pretty sure the voice is just my mental illnesses. The bible has violence though God is quite violent in old testement and there's lots of things about him breaking jaws of enemies and such. The over all message in my book is violence isn't the answer. But not everyone submits to Jesus and violence is sometimes necessary.
