Prayer request, again.

[bigsleepj]

I go through spiritual distress regularly (mostly due to my anxiety problems) but over the last few months they've been getting regular, so much that I feel like my faith is slipping away, more than ever. This is mostly because of several issues, the most prominent being the fact that I'm getting tired of being constantly in this state. Please pray for me, thank you. I feel like I may just give up because I'm sick of this state - it seems that I'm unable to move on spiritually.

I'll really appreciate your prayers.

Thank you.

[Lady Arianrod]

I will pray that you will feel God's peaceful presence in your life.

Well well.....it sounds like we could be going through similar phases in life. I don't exactly know what you're going through but I know I don't like my current state in life, uncertainties of the future and my difficulties in getting my spiritual state up again.

Will lift one up for you, brother.

[Syreth]

I think I may struggle similarly. It's unfortunate when the doubt hits and we start to feel condemned... and then we feel condemned because we feel condemned. I can't really think of any practical advice, since I don't really know what's going through your head. However, it certainly wouldn't hurt to go out of your way to spend some special time with the Lord. I hope everything gets cleared up and that your mind is renewed, according to Romans 12. God bless you and I'll be praying.

I'll be praying for you my friend. Now this might help:

"We wish to see Jesus." ~John 12:21

The constant cry of the world is, "Who will show us any good?" They seek satisfaction in earthly comforts, enjoyments, and riches. But the quickened sinner knows of only one good. "I wish I knew where I might find Him!" When he is truly awakened to feel his guilt, if you could lay a fortune before him he would say, "Take it away: I want to find Him." It is a blessed thing for a man when he has brought his desires into focus, so that they all center in one object. When he has fifty different desires, his heart resembles a stagnant pool spreading out into a marsh, breeding disease; but when all his desires are channeled in one direction, his heart becomes like a river of pure water, running swiftly to fertilize the fields. Happy is he who has one desire, if that one desire is set on Christ, though it may not yet have been realized. When a soul desires Jesus, it is a sure indication of divine work within. Such a man will never be content with mere externals. He will say, "I want Christ; I must have Him--mere ordinances are of no use to me. I want Himself; do not offer me these; you offer me the empty pitcher, while I am dying of thirst; give me water or I die. Jesus is my soul's desire. I wish to see Jesus!" Is this your condition, my friend, at this moment? Have you only one desire, and is that for Christ? Then you are not far from the kingdom of heaven. Have you only one wish in your heart, and that is that you may be washed from all your sins in Jesus' blood? Can you really say, "I would give all I have to be a Christian. I would give up everything I have and hope for, in order to know that I have an interest in Christ"? Then, despite all your fears, be encouraged--the Lord loves you, and you will come out into daylight soon and rejoice in the liberty with which Christ makes you free.

When you can't see your way in the dark... look toward the son.

God Bless
