I do find it difficult to be happy. I am tortured with emotions with inferiority in American culture, and among my relatives the Tiptons, Noones, Blevins, and Vinks. My life does feel like a bad dream. I just wish I could have all of thoughts of these people exposed to me. What I hear is they are models of moral perfection, morally, professionally, so forth. I am the only exception, but I do not know why. At times, in Las Vegas, Nevada, it seems like either I can be completely physically isolated, or have a conversation with someone who can make me feel like I am isolated financial failure in America. The conversations between my relatives can get me almost crying with depression and anxiety. I am always very reluctant to smile. I have lost some teeth. I am pretty aware of my situation. I have known for awhile I have no financial strength to retire by choice. I am a person not in demand, not for anything near what I got my university education in. I find myself writing that I went to the University of Arizona on a Navy ROTC scholarship, and graduated with a BS in mechanical engineering in 1995 to show I did have some accomplishment in life. I have not liked being around my parents because they have been mainly condescending in their comments, in reference to many people. My parents Bonnie and Terry Tipton as well as other relatives have been able to torture me with inferiority. I do not like being around them, but have no choice economically. I just wish I could be a fly on the wall during their work activities to witness their moral perfection and professional glory.
God isn't just our best hope, but our only hope. We must lay down our pride, pick up our cross, and follow Yeshua, our Messiah. Thank you for this broadcast, and relaying hope.
If you “walk with God” being laser-focused on His will, you will be filled with the Holy Spirit and will be joyful all the time. Notice that I did not say happy. That’s a different matter.
Sounds like such a beautiful ministry to heal children. I do worry about donating, how do I know that the people whom run this are not stealing like so so many charities?!
Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and all the rest will be given to you. Part of following Christ is suffering. He has a plan we all have to suffer, and if you get into theological discussions, the more suffering, you do hear the more you are paralleling and uniting with Jesus and the closer you will beat him in heaven. That’s at least part of the story.

No! Not in this we world of woe and more! Joy in the midst of OVERWHELMING evil is a mental problem. Godly people are left to fight a good versus evil battle ALONE! The prayer calvary isn't coming in time. WHY? WHY?
Jesus was perfect, and He was God, yet He not only suffered, but suffered perfectly, for us. When we hurt, He hurts with us. I don't know what you're enduring now, but you're not alone, because your Savior is with you. My prayers will follow you, too. 💜
All I have to do is think back on all the times The Lord has blessed me, even spoken with me, I can’t help but feel joy.
As I’ve got older I find less is more and any challenges I hand over to God and give gratitude for my blessings. Amen. Maria 🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷
This was a really excellent interview, Eric. So informative and inspirational !
Thank you Eric ❤❤❤
