      Also , it can be very difficult to free yourself from despicable "human parasites" who play the sympathy card because they know that you are known to be a " soft touch" as I have always been. I have been drained of emotional and physical energy many times in my life . However I have only realised it fully in recent months . However , it was something that I had to realise for myself and to learn not to feel guilty if I say " No more." I finally asked God , through prayer to help me to recognise those truly in need of my help , both spiritually and physically . I finally realised that my own wisdom was sadly lacking and that I actually needed help myself . Last week , God opened my spiritual eyes and helped me to cut away from a "human leech" whom I have known for quite a few years and the release I feel is enormous . He soon latched onto someone else , who will probably no doubt have to come to realise for themselves . It's a very difficult journey before reaching that stage though.
      James 1 : 5 "If any one of you is lacking in wisdom , let him keep asking God , for he gives generously to all and without reproaching , and it will begiven him."
      While I try to do as Jesus taught and help others , I now know that there has to be a demarcation line to distinguish the genuine ones ... just as Jesus filters our prayers to God , so that some people cannot attempt to take advantage of his undeserved loving kindness . Prayer is a huge privilege which only exists because of Jesus died for our sins and bearing our shame , and to bring us closer to God in our daily lives . 🤍

    “Don’t react, cut them off silently” took a while to get rid of them and their persistent attempts to contact me, two phone number changes, an email change, a house move and a lot of blocking but being betrayed by a close friend you trusted and loved like a sister is utterly devastating, the only way I could survive that was by pretending they did not exist any more. I just did not want to get sucked back in to their toxicity so I completely removed myself. Looking back now I see how much I allowed myself to be manipulated and what an unequal friendship it really was.

      Most importantly, you won't have to pay $12.95 for an ebook that makes the same vapid claims: "ancient secrets shrouded in mystery" and the key "to unlocking the power of manifestation"--a book that is "forbidden" and which "transcends conventional knowledge".

Nevertheless, I've come to understand that there's always a solution to be found. Half a decade ago, my wife and I faced such trials in our marriage that divorce seemed inevitable.

    I went to college with someone over 50 years ago, and our lives followed the same path. His name is Pete. We ended up working for the same large corporation, and in school and at work I always had the feeling that he thought of me as a rival rather than a friend. We had a mutual friend that he was particularly close to, and the three of us would occasionally go out for drinks together. One time Pete couldn't make it and I began talking about him, saying that he was the oldest friend I had. He responded by saying that Pete was not my friend, and from then on I realized that my instincts were correct. I kept my distance after that.

      It’s not that we shouldn’t love our mothers or fathers, but love the lord (who created those mothers and fathers)more. This is from Jesus lips Matt 10:34 “ Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
      35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law “ just like we have natural laws that we must obey. In times past If you broke that law of not honoring your parents then you were either stoned or exiled. No matter what a parent did, you were to honor them. The minute Jesus died on the cross for our sins we were no longer under the law, but under grace. Our sins being able to be forgiven. Under the law in times past if you committed adultery, or murder you were put to death. Now that Jesus died for us we can ask for forgiveness and be fully pardoned and choose another path in life. The Bible is a spiritual book written by in inspiration of God. Though he came down as a man to show his love for his creation. He is a spirit. So don’t look at his word naturally. It cannot be discerned like any other book.
