Introduction / A bit about myself

<< < (2/3) > >>

Rene:
Hi Rhys,

Welcome to the forum.  It's always a pleasure to hear from other like-minded believers.:)

Although I have never experienced anything close to the horrifying things you described in your introduction, I have known what it feels like to have that "pinned down and paralyzed" sensation when I was partially asleep.  It was a frightening experience because it felt like something was trying to overtake me.  I instinctively knew to call out to God to help me and was relieved when I felt released!  This sensation is known in the medical field as "Sleep Paralysis" but I when I experienced it, I felt there was more to it than something physiological. :-\

Anyway, glad to have you with us and if you start feeling isolated again, please feel free to reach out to your BT family. :)

Dennis Vogel:
Demons attack me once and awhile.

Just say to yourself "that's not my thought" because most likely it's not.

Dave in Tenn:
Welcome, Rhys.

I've had similar experiences and though I can honestly say I'm glad they stopped (many years ago, now), what followed was much more subtle.  So very glad you are finding real spiritual food in B-T. 

Gina:
I wrote Rhys privately but I just wanted to say welcome again, Rhys, openly.

I also told him how I had experienced that feeling of the devil creeping up my back at night when I'd fall to sleep -- but the experience was exactly what Rene said she experienced.  It'd start to happen and then as soon as I prayed to God (Please help me!) it would leave -- and it'd be gone!  It was the wildest thing.  That sleep paralysis thing  stopped shortly before or after coming to B-T, but I have not experienced that feeling in I don't know how long - probably at least 10 years.

God bless you, Rhys.  Again, I'm so glad you have joined us. :)

Peace to you and yours. :)
Gina

Rhys 🕊:
Hi again. Thanks for all your kind and encouraging comments and advice, it is a big help to me. I am enjoying learning more of God's truth everyday but still find some things to be a struggle, like a battle is been fought, but praise God I'm getting there, like Ray says it takes a lifetime. I guess I'm still a work in progress. I find this verse quite encouraging.

For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 2 Corinthians 4:17

Blessings to each one.

Rhys :-\
