    I can relate to this. I’ve been in the throes of either fear, anger, anxiety, frustration, and depression. I finally realized that I needed to spend ALONE time with God. I’m not gonna lie, I started doing it even though my desire was to do something else. But when I finally SAT STILL and spent some time with Him, listening to bible studies and preaching from different pastors(mainly Better Together ladies) and reading my Bible and after the second or third day I started seeing and feeling a difference in my fear, anger, anxiety, frustration and depression. My flesh was fighting it at first(I wanted to do something else besides sitting still) but luckily my spirit won that inner struggle. Now I see that the happier I am in the Lord, the less I feel those bad feelings, and I’m also kinder to others. And now, I can’t get enough! I’ll pray for you my friend. Gods got this if you’ll give it to Him and make a conscious effort to change. God Bless You!❤

    I work with addicts daily as a rehab counselor it’s a struggle to view them through compassionate eyes especially because they are fresh out of jail and they are so mean. However I have seen the Holy Spirit manifest in me as I die daily to my flesh . But probably the hardest job I’ve ever had. Don’t know why God has me here but I’m so ready to move ❤

    Oh my goodness!!! What Jess said was so helpful! It's difficult to control my emotions, but I do have control over how I talk to people and about them..even in my own mind.

    Important to remember that loving difficult people. … and forgiving them does not necessarily mean we are called to have ongoing relationship with them. There are people who are so broken, controlling and narcissistic that a Christian can justifiably not continue in a close relationship with them.

    I feel bad that I do not/cannot show my "image of God" at my work as much as I would like to. I mean, I can show it in being excellent in my work. But the rest of the time, I am pretty much using God as a tower to hide myself in/behind, or asking Him to hold me back so I don't blow out my frustration...🙏🙏🙏🙏

      You don't have any friends or people that you are kind to or are kind to you at work? You mean every day you go to work, you are either in fear or anger? That sounds like you need to spend a lot of time after or before work in intimate time with God. You are supposed to bring God's presence wherever you go. The JOY of the Lord is your strength. It seems to me that you are low on joy and you need to spend time with God in study and prayer.

    It is not so difficult to love difficult people.
    All we have to do is to have our hearts circumcised through the Holy Spirit.
    Through circumcision of our heart,
    We can love the Lord, and then we can love such difficult people with the heart of the Lord. (Deut.30:6~14)
    This is The New or second covenant,
    the gospel.
    This is possible only by believing in the gospel.
    Hallelujah ^^

    was Jesus passive before the court when he would not open his mouth? Is waiting on Gods vindication passivity? It is self control to not argue, prove yourself, or justify but leave room for God...?

    • @debbiebramwell
      @debbiebramwell 5 місяців тому +1

      God's Word has been very helpful for me. It helps to renew our mind. He knows best. He says if you love me, you will obey me. I remind myself of everything Jesus went through, yet He shows us mercy, grace, and unlimited forgiveness. This reminder humbles me. Surrendering and asking for the Holy Spirit to help( we can't do these things on our own) and also remembering we have an enemy who loves when we nurse our hurt, he loves division and loves when we don't forgive( it causes separation from God) it's an open door for him to torment us. Gods way is best. Staying close to Him and walking in peace is the best way! God bless you. Praying over you . 🙏🏽🤍✝️

    It's not easy to love people who tend to take advantage of our kindness, and keep hurting us, but what am learning is that I need to remember they're God's image and see them as God does.
    Repenting is something I often do and been feeling compelled to preach about it as well, which I do.
