I' m having a tough time dealing with my thoughts..some days are better than others..I feel this terrible emptiness inside..no matter what I do or where I go..nothing fills it..Ive gone from church to church..and now im not anywhere..Ive asked God for healing many times..but these feeling just come back to me to a point I want days to end..I have do much pain inside and I really just want to be at peace for the sake of my children and my well being..I just don't know how. I've asked God to guide my path but my mind is so filled with negatives it's so hard to hear God speak to me..it hurts to realize that I know nothing after going to church for a while..nothing seemed to stick..only heart felt preaches that I felt I related to..but I can't even remember a verse from the bible..I feel upset,frustrated,lonely,angry,all negative feelings..as much as I try to fight my thoughts they're drowning me..I can't understand what God's plan is for my life..I can't understand why God hasn't led a good man to my path by now .I can't understand what's so wrong with me..and why it's so difficult for me to be happy..I can't understand what more I have to ask of God for him to take all of this away..and help me understand my purpose in this world..I have so much to give yet feel like I don't know where to start or where to even go..I pray for healing and inner peace..to help me understand and love my Life..for acceptance of what was and what won't be..to help me love myself enough that I don't have to search for love in the wrong places. ..To put someone in my path that will teach me what I need to know in the bible..to keep myself so involved with God and helping others that there's no space for thoughts..for God to use me because I want to be used by him to help others..I pray that God can reach me soon enough to be able to lead my children at a right path and to help me stop looking for love in the wrong men..to help me know when someone is not for me and move on.

I am going through a similar situation. Yesterday I was reminded by a younger cousin of how blessed I am and how beautiful I am. I'm consciously trying to have positive thoughts and love myself just the way I am. God lives and it's His will that we be in good mental health as well as physical. Try to think positive and when the negatives come... thought or feeling forcefully and consciously push them away. Listen worship music and get in the habit of praising and thanking God. Then other habits and parctises will fall into place. God is able and he's in the water with you. Just don't be too busy asking so many questions that you miss His answers. Pray for me as I pray for you
Thanks in Advance for your prayers..
Going to church and reading the bible are all good things, however praying to God is as simple as talking to him whenever and wherever you are, he listen no matter what. Rome was not built in a day, everything takes time, endurance brings perseverance, be still and you will hear him speak but keep in mind you may not always like what is being said due to always wanting things our way but he knows best, so just listen and everything will be fine. Stay blessed my sister and hang in there.
Well,when we are at the end of our rope,we have to hang on because our Lord & Saviour is right there for us.to lead,guide & direct us,when tou feel you cant go on,get in a quiet place & just be quiet in his presesnce & listen to what he desires to say to you.He will speak to your heart & tell you what you need to know.just let go & let God.
Thank you all for your prayers and advice..May God bless you all
You don't know how many times I have felt the same way you do and still feel this way. I have prayed the same prayers, but just know that YOU are NOT alone and just know that I will be praying for you. When 2 or more are gathered there he is!! 🙏💋❤
I just want to confirm what you said we’re not alone never, but the devil just wants to make us believe we are. Asking for the Holy Spirit to help you will eventually changed those feelings. I know because I went through so much. Building a personal relationship with God the Father Jesus and the Holy Spirit Will start to fill all the empty spaces.
As the Holy Spirit fills you up every day. Ask for him to fill you up daily. Spend time with Jesus everyday. Pray, study, read.. the changes will come. Sending love.
Short story and grew up a Jehovah witness but we lived a double life so throughout my whole life I was in an out of the church and then five years ago my mom passed away but before that she was sick and I was taking care of it so I couldn’t always get to church all the time so the Bible teacher I had basically tell me to the curb and told me she couldn’t deal with me I was devastated I had nobody no man no husband no boyfriend. I felt really lost just like You do. So I sat at home for eight months trying to figure it out. I was confused didnt understand as I search On line for answers and finding out about the JW religion was not what i thought. I was devastated.. I found this one man who is talking about sucking on YouTube and I asked him something I don’t remember but he told me this in my living room by myself I could tell God that I except Jesus into my life and that I believe that he died for me on the cross And was resin up to heaven three days later. And he promised me the guy would answer me and he did the lady that lived upstairs for me one day when I was going to put the garbage out asked me did I want to go to church with her and my heart just jumped and I said yes I’ve been at this church for three years now I got saved and I was completely happy. I’d say about a year after I joined there were some things that I didn’t understand because I want to completely explain it to me I thought it was up to the church to teach me and it is somewhat the gods word says that the Holy Spirit is our guide and our teacher so my self and my older daughter we started searching and reading Gods Word daily. We didn’t really understand at first but little by little still attending church on Sunday Wednesday night Bible study we started to understand I had asked God should I leave the church he told me now take your daughter and go right back to church we don’t go to church to get approval from everybody at church we go to church to spend time with God and the people at church are brothers and sisters no matter what their attitudes are is they say hello or they don’t with your whole heart you go you please God and you say hello with a warm heart to everybody God’s word also says for us to move over and let God drive the car we as carnal people have the Tendency to keep trying to drive our own car. I thought my whole life I needed to have a man I’ve been single for five years I’m older and 61 I has three marriages a few boyfriends and they all were disasters I told God I was tired of it I’m good the only man I need is God and when people ask me I know tell them I married to LORD. Isaiah 41:10. Became my scripture. Please read it. Keep it. Read it when you feel alone. God is there with you always be patient go back to church. I go to a Christian non denomination fellowship. Sending much love to you. From one sister to another. My prayer for you. Heavenly father I approached you this morning praying for this sister who is in great need of understanding of your love and your direction so far that I ask that you step in and take over and drive the car for her help her to understand father show her the way Holy Spirit guide her and teach her and comfort her in Jesus name I pray amen be well my sister, Love Ms. Corona
