Hi Amos... I pray this comforts you. I had uncontrollable intrusive thoughts that were simply terrifying. I could find no comfort anywhere until surprisingly the Holy Spirit spoke to my spirit. He said, "don't be afraid of your thoughts". That's all He said. In other words... what I believed were my thoughts were not my thoughts. They were from the enemy. It was still a battle to overcome them until I really trusted that it was not me. The intrusive thoughts eventually petered out.
Father, I pray That these words comfort Amos' heart. Amen
@@lallensweet5107 Thank you for the reassuring words my dear friend , God bless you ❤️🙏
You will be healed in Jesus name

Same fears here, amen. The family aspects of our nation is absolutely under attack. I'm hurt that fellow Christian or Pastors don't jump in and support families with relationship needs.
Most pastors are not trained in counseling for such things.

During the covid period, like many people, I faced many setbacks and difficulties in my life. I used to be sad and confused, but thanks to God's arrangement, during that period, God interrupted my plans and allowed me to experience other things. In these things, I saw a different landscape. These experiences were very important and valuable in my life stage, and they made me more mature and clear about my goals today. Later, God gave me a new opportunity to restart the interrupted plan. I am grateful to him, and on the way back, I received constantly wonderful blessings of God. God gave me love and strength, and taught me self-discipline, Although I often encounter difficulties on new journeys and start to fear, under the guidance of the Lord, I can always calm down, increase confidence and peace. I feel that under the Lord's leadership, I have become stronger and stronger ,I have accomplished many things that I used to think I couldn't do,On the new journey of life, surprises come all the way, Thanks God,Amen!
I am the Lord's servant. May everything You have said about me come true.
Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to Thy word. (Luke 1:38 KJV)

Wonderful sermon,God bless you Pastor.
Nothing will be impossible for God
I am Lord's Servant
nothing is impossible with God. I am the Lord's servant.
This is exactly the sermon I needed! Thank you Pastor Craig!
When surprising things happen, I remind myself God is in control and I speak aloud things that are within my control. The rest is left for God. I've been diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder along with rare Brain Disease, so I am always being aware, checking myself to see what is manifesting in my body and thru thoughts. Awareness is Key. Be Aware and always include Prayer.
I am choosing to be the Lords servant, I am giving my life to him.

My husband and I are going to a homless shelter the only one available That we have found. They said they are full. But we can't see any where eles so ware going, My husband has faith.. I'm working on mine. BUT AFTER HEARING THIS message from you paster, I truly believe God has his hands in our lives big time. 🙏 I don't need to pack so much as I thought as God will provide I haven't any control. THANK YOU THANK YOU GOD
