Comment on What to Do When a Strange God Shows Up in Your Life by Joe Sewell

Janet, that’s not an unusual feeling. We think in terms of “do the crime, serve the time.” The problem we face is that we *aren’t* good by God’s standards. We never have been, and we can never be. That’s why God sent His one & only Son to take the punishment for us, so we could be free from condemnation (John 3:16-18). Nothing we can do will separate us from His love (Romans 8:37-39). That’s grace, and we are saved by grace through faith that itself is a gift from God (Ephesians 2:1-10). Through His mercy, we are often even rescued from the temporal consequences of our own stupidity.

I know, it’s easy to read and to think it, but harder to believe it. That’s where trusting Him comes in. It might take time, but if you ask Him, He’ll find a way to get it through to you. You may still not “feel” that way at times, but feelings are just as unreliable as worldly knowledge.

I’m currently going through trials and tribulation. The deepest/darkest parts of PTSD, sever anxiety, panic attacks and depression. After working 911 dispatch for 23 years which I loved but realizing I will never return to my profession. My faith has sustained me through a lot of horror of the flashbacks that haunt my everyday life. I pray before I go to bed for sleep without nightmares and my faith allows me a few hours sleep before they crowd in. When I wake I pray ever more because I know God will not forsake me and start my day. I know that the Lord will bring me through this because he brought me to it. The whole key for me is my faith. The Lord has given me a very loving and patient husband of 32 yrs. A very supportive family who have surround me with continuous love and encouragement. I pray this “chapter” is almost complete.

What some people don’t understand is that they have to be honest with themselves before they can actually find their answers. God knows the truth, and perhaps he’s waiting for us to admit it to ourselves. What I’ve found is that some people feel sorry for themselves because they choose not to admit their own responsibility in their “problems”. Sometimes when we feel hopeless it’s because we’ve brought it on ourselves. Being someone that’s been on the receiving end of others behaviors, going through their abuse, lies, lack of being resonsible for their own actions, we get tired of it, and maybe this leads others own “sense of hopelessness”. We often cause our own problems…………………….

My daughter, 37 yrs old with 1 grown child and granddaughter and 3 young boys and a husband was ill with breast cancer, my fear she would sucome to it.I stood in agreement on all the words on healing and convinced she would be healed, but that didnt happen, she died Oct 11, 2011. I was devastated, in fact was in denial of it because I stood so strong on her healing, it took 2 months to realize the finality of it all. I am almost afraid to stand again and my sister is experiancing lymphoma and a stem cell transplant now… what to do beside pray? Di I stand? and take the chance of being hurt so badly?

When I was a child I was always afraid I would be punished if I sinned. I am still that way, fearing something “bad” will happen “if I’m not good”

Nice to read some touching stories about marriage here! Yesterday I went to the 10th year of Law School Graduation Anniversary. My colleagues married and with children or engaged or with boyfriend and I was the only one alone and with a brand new broken up date. I knew I was going to feel myself sad and lost like a fish out of the water, bingo! Before going out to this party I found some touching stories about lasting marriage elderly couples whose death interval between spouses was of at least only one hour to more, so strong was their bond. These stories I found on The Huffington Post and then I posted them on Facebook. I know my First Love is Jesus Christ, but I also know God has put in my heart the desire of finding my soulmate. And I also know He has the power of making this desire coming true. Meanwhile I perform the script God has written to me accompanied by The Holy Spirit and Jesus Christ.
