When I do my Bible reading in the morning, I don't try too hard to remember what I've read, but I listen for the Holy Spirit's voice to teach me what He wants me to know. This is usually more impactful than just the words alone and I can carry it and remember it longer.

Also, I select one verse that seems especially meaningful and make it my daily memory verse. The next day I may forget it completely, but for that day I have one verse I can recall and think about.

Thank you, RA.

Sounds less like you have memory problems and more like you just don't have a purpose.

Is there nothing at all in your life that you can still get excited about?

Well, I did make a bunch of music recently.

I ended up uploading an album, that when I was listening to a Christian podcast, I immediately got convicted to take a bunch of music down and to start only making music about my relationship with God.

I recently ended up creating a 28 track album about my life before Jesus and found out that God wasn't pleased with it. So, I have to wait a few days till I can edit and delete the releases. God let me know that it was more like a Tower of Babel situation, could lead others astray and could also have non believers think twice about followers of Jesus. Bad representation.

It sounds like you might be going through a phase of withdrawal after losing your bearings in some of life's uglier motivations.

I once struggled with apathy and detachment, which affected my memory and concentration. The catalyst was losing what I imagined to be my sense of purpose, a woman, who was unfaithful to me. I know from your introductory post, that my situation back then is somewhat comparable to something that's recently happened to you.

When the spirit of heaviness won't relinquish its grip, pray, drop to your knees and cry out, frustrate it if you can with the garment of praise, sing psalms, leave no stone unturned to come nearer to God.

His love is not a here today and gone tomorrow kinda thing. It's the only strong and steady constant we have, through all our fluctuating thoughts and feelings, doubts and fears, struggles and victories.

The worst part of the world, is always that part which was in us. We need the One who overcame the world to prevail over those things, which just when we thought we were out, would pull us back in, if it were not for Him.

There was another post, between yours and mine. It must have been deleted about a minute after I saw it.

Before it was deleted, my post looked like it was playing along with jovial banter. After the disappearing post was removed, my post looks a little bit mean...

You're good Lynx. It's true, I've been back and forth on here. Some people are entertained by others suffering.

I really liked your song, Divine Hangover. Is that one of the ones you think is no good now?
 
ATSTD said:
No, that is one that is here to stay but the EP 'Scattering the Old Regimes" and the
album I just released will be taken down from everywhere as soon as I am able.

Oh, okay, thanks for letting me know. Wow. Your singing voice is amazing. That was your voice, right?

lol no. I’m not sure how my voice would sound. I’m kind of afraid to use my voice even though I have practice singing in a church choir and I’ve been told I have a great singing voice.

I’ve been using different technologies to create my music, including the vocals.

I have a new his and hers single being released this morning called “God Opens Doors when the Others Shut,” a male and female version of a genre that I like to call Christian dubstep.

I’ll post it here once it’s uploaded.

Millionaire or not, I’m just glad to be alive after everything I’ve been through, while also being able to fulfill God’s purpose for my life, no matter how many enemies Satan influences to try and stop God’s will over my life.

Yes, I agree, we have so many gifts starting with life itself, and then function-ability, which does change over time (I am recently
turned 70 so am becoming much better acquainted with all that LOL) and creativity is like icing on the cake, as it were.

Just uploaded this Christian song called "Better than Coffee's Buzz" by ATSTD (Alive to See the Day...of Jesus' return). I had to. Ever since I stopped drinking coffee, I noticed that I am more productive and that I can work longer hours each day. Ever since I stopped drinking coffee, I noticed that I'm more physically active and I actually absorb the nutrients in my food.

 
I just uploaded this panel, designed today at work, number 2! LOL

1-Corinthians2-12-1-John4-13-John14-17.png

Those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh; but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit. The mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace, because the mind of the flesh is hostile to God: It does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so. Those controlled by the flesh cannot please God.
This was the first one I started earlier today:

I like your new song! You are very adept in your song writing/crafting of lyrics...
