You don't do it anymore? I wish I could do work like that...My problem is I have a hard problem with memorization like GEN 3:1 (Using that only as an example) I mean when I went to church as a kid First Baptist Church of New Market in My Home town when I was Just a very small kid I walked there all by my self. That was my safety place. Then I stayed there all morning. Stayed in Sunday school too. Went off to weekend retreats too. I actually have gifts of the spirit and I am very proud of that ( very humbled by that...)will tell you about that at a later time please...

But after my original Pastor left who I kind of considered my "Godfather" because I didn't have that much (true family of origin and positive role models good true role models) I wish Dr. Phil and Robin I could adopt as my GODPARENTS xoxox

Wanna know what happened when I went out with the NEW PASTOR OF MY CHURCH AND WHY I LEFT IT AFTER BEING THERE FOR ALL MY LIFE?

We were helping a Vietnam VET and I was assisting because of my "gifts" etc.. and on the car ride home after we prayed and blessed his home etc....The "NEW Pastor told me about his dream he had about me the night before about me and my breasts! THAT WAS IT I WAS GONE!!!!

BEEN on my own EVER SINCE!

I am not good a memorizing things like that either but every time I am suppose to use one God always has it ready.  I think memorizing comess from our mind but when we are lead by the Spirit to say it then we have allowed it to be in our Spirit.  (does that make since to you)  So anyway then we are speaking from our Spirit (giving God all glory) but when we speek it from what we have memorized well sometimes it puts more focus on the flesh.  I felt horrible not being able to do that until God revield that to me and now i don't feel pressured to have to memorize it all but to know it is written in my Spirit.  I too have the gifts of the spirit!!!!  Isn't God awesome how he live and works in and through us!!! 

It is so funny to me how i see all this and know how awesome God is and all he can do and stuggle with all that I do.  It makes it really frustrating because I know at anytime I can say here have this I will give this to you know but every time I try I feel like I say oooo no I have to have this back.  Many times just minutes later. 

Like yesterday we had an alter call and were releasing anxiety to God (i have anxiety attacks).  I went  up to the alter but for some reason I just could release it.  I felt so ashamed knowing the chance was right there and I denied God the previledge of seeing one of His children set free from something He did not cause or want for them.

haaaaaa!!  Yeah I like what you said about Dr.Phil and Robin being your Godparents, I wish I had a Godparent period.  I wish I would have felt like I really really had parents. I mean I did in a way but well that is a long story or should i say alot of stories that all go together as one.  sigh oooo what it would be like to oooooo i forgot what i was saying hehehe!!!  O yeah God has guided me through my life for sure there were certain things that I knew God didn't want me to do when I was child and one of those was dating, He promised me when the day was to come He would show me!!!  So all these years I have never dated and I am proud of it.  Although sometimes i think it is for more then just the reason God said wait.

Wow i can't believe the pastor told you about that dream......  hm sheessshhh hehe

May I just ask you just a few things?

On a daily basis you know you are a great person?

You are a christian and GOD lives in you right?

GOD is perfect isnt he?

Even though MAN is not perfect we have GOD in us dont we?

Have you made a conscience effort to turn your will over to the care of GOD?

YOUR LIFE? YOUR WILL?

Do You drink? Smoke? Do Drugs/ Do you allow the evil one to whisper in YOUR EAR? Would you allow him near me?

I have never drank, smoked, pratied, dated or did drugs.  I have always done my best to live a life that people can see that God lives in me.  Actually, the other week this guy at church said no matter when I see you, there is a smile on your face.  When he asked me how all I could do was tell him that when I don't feel like smiling Jesus smile for me!! tee hee hee that sounds silly but well  yeah that's how it seems.  Yes, your right God is perfect and He lives in me so well that means perfection lives in me through Him. 

There are a lot of things that i have turned over to the care of God but others I try and try but well I take it back.  I know He has a plan and a purpose for me and it is amazing I know.  I hear the others talk about how they see Jesus in me but when I look at me well, I often catch myself saying I hate you, what's your problem and things like that.  I try so hard to speak the truth of the scriptures over my life like there is one somewhere that says "you are called to be free" and all those in song of solomon that talk about our beauty and the veil we wear and letting our lover (God) pull it off. 

No I would never want the devil near you, I don't want him near anyone!!!  I want people to know,see and experience the love, forgiveness and the grace of God.  I know that God has grace on me but well grace is something i don't have for myself and forgiveness i can forgive others and i know God forgives me but well hmm when it comes to me forgiving me, I just can't seem to do it.  I feel so ashamed at what i do knowing that i am a temple (which are Holy) knowing that i am choosen and set part for Him (God).  I just get so angry at myself that i don't totally release these thing int o the hands of God.  I try so so hard but well yeah I don't know.  I feel ashamed that I deny God so much and then i think about in the scriptures where it says "anyone who trust in Him will never be put to shame"  which means we are well free from shame maybe that wasn't the best scripture to use but i am sure youknow what i mean.  Well, I don't know i just feel like i am letting Him down.  I can't well yeah i don't know.  I meani know that He is proud of me though often I think why would you be proud of me but i just have to be thankful that no matter what He is proud of me as His daughter.

Hi Sunnymonkey,

I understand your pain. I think you need a new Therapist, one who you can be upfront with and emotionally honest with. Opening yourself up to another person can be really scary, however, if you really want to get better, to learn to love and respect your self, and feel that your are worth loving, you need to be able to be brutally honest with your therapist and he/she should not make you fell judged. Also, therapy hurts emotionally sometimes and it should; it it does not hurt, then your therapist or you as a client are not doing your/their job. You need to get at what is really eating you -- it may be that you are all about avoidance, especially when it comes to emotional stuff. Just one possible reason for the stuffing down of food, is the stuffing down of emotions.

--Anyways, when I was pregnant with my first child -- I had to think of someone else beside me, but afterwords it started again. What finally made me stop altogether was that I did not want to transmit my distorted ways of eating along to my daughters. It is a lot of work, every day. It is not just the nutritional stuff, but as I mentioned before it is the emotional stuff.

I was reading your message to this other person......  If you wouldn't have had your child to look after well ooooooo I don't know...... anyway grrrrrrr oooo never mind but i started this so i am not going to erase it now....  if i start the post i am going to post it (most of the time anyway)  what if you wouldn't have had a child to look after and care for and protect (if imust say it that way) from what you had faced......... i don't know how to ask what i am trying to ask........  did you ever just wish that you could disappear?  I am so proud of you by the way that you stopped!!!  how long has it been?

Depression

Quote From: lidica

Welcome to the message board. Depression makes me angry too because it steals my joy. Whether we want to admit to it or not after we find we can't drag ourselves out of bed or think a positive thought we have to face we have a serious problem. I waited many years struggling with it thinking I could get on top of my situation but I couldn't and after getting tired of feeling suicidal and continuing to wake up feeling like thatI thank God found this board and got a better understanding of depression. I take the herbal medicine and it is helping keep my mood stabilized. Whatever you can do to keep your serotin level up whether exercise if you can get yourself moving I can't when I'm depressed ..read every positive message you can for reinforcing the good images to your brain. Sighing and Smiles told me about the women's choice vitamin and B-12 to keep my mental and physical well being stable. Sometimes we have to look at what's going on in our lives that brought the buzzard depression to our door. We have to sometimes take a second look at some unsolved pain. Many hugs and prayers!
hey i just saw how you put a capital on the H in His!!!  That is what i meant to do but i didn't for somereason it needs to be that way

well as far as the joy part goes no matter what no matter how bad i feel or how much i want to disappear there is this joy i always know is there........  to me joy is not an emotion and well it can't be taken away unless we give it away and well yeah..... i am not giving mine away cause i know just where it will go if i don't hold on.......  i do have to say i bury it under all this other stuff but no matter what i can since that it is still there.......  sometimes i just want to sleep and sleep and sleep but haaaaaa i have the opposite problem i can't seem to sleep or get the sleep that i really need or should i say a rested sleep meaning wheni  do get some sleep i never really feel rested like i did get that sleep......  yeah i have been trying to walk 2 miles  day although i would love to walk more then that i use to atleast walk 5 miles a day and then i went somewhere i couldn't do that and well i need to start back really really bad!!!!!

Hey Sister!!!!!!

Quote From: labelfree

Thank You my sister in Christ for your complete honesty I appreciate it....I feel your truth threw this screen..I know truth and sis you are SPEAKING it straight to Me....Without ANY BS...That is what I can Completely admire about you...can we really get down now to the nitty gritty of "our" gifts then? Can I ask you a truth about me please regarding OUR heavenly Father which has actually kept me alive? If I can you just have to answer me one question more before I open up to you OK? What is it that must forgive yourself of if you have never did anything so bad? Why are you so hard on yourself? Is it because you were adopted and you feel unloved and unworthy? Thrown out? Please talk to me without stopping..STRAIGHT UP!!

Well, my whole life i have never lived my life for me i have been there for others and put myself aside.....  somewhere in all that just before i turned 13 i began to develope an eating disorder.  a lot of times i just wonder why do i matter so much when already i do know the truth of it because God loves me that's why...  anyway then as i got older i also started doing things like self-harm.....  i had never really cried growing up instead i can remember so many times that i just held my mom as she would cry sometimes even to the point of her passinng out.....  i always felt i had to take care of her that she needed me.....  it's really still like that well besides she is different some right now with this boyfriend (actually they are basically ingaged i think) she has.......  i didn't realize what i was doing when i started doing all these things with food and exericise when i first started i didn't see what i was doing.....  i mean people were even talking about that stuff and i was so blinded to what i was doing that even at that time i said wow i would never do that........  haa and i was doing it then already.....  it just grows and grows i get so confused and many times think i would just love to disappear or something.......  if i would have known what i was doing when it started i hope i would have never done it... now i can't stop and there are so many things there that i don't know what to feel think or do.........  i mean I know to go to God and I do but well yea.............  what i shared about my mom was only a small little peice of the things that happened that make me feel some of these ways.........  yes i do feel unworty and i am scared of love I know there are people who love me but i am sooooo scared of it.....  although i love to share love too others recieving that love is a whole nother thing.......  so that is just a small peice of it all.......  i hate what i do to myself and i want to stop or it to all be over with but then sometimes i really don't want to stop i don't know what i want........  it's like i just have to have this......  although i am proud of myself for one thing i have done good with my self harm the past week and a half or so.....  i am just sooooo confused and angry(at me) 

I live at my moms now that i am not in missions anymore and well let's just say i don't need to be here i need to get out of this house.....  i am soon though i am going to college
