I have to have a break!!
Nancy:
Hi there everyone,
I am just letting everyone know that i won't be posting as i need to take a break!
The reason is that i feel just as trapped legally as i did when i went to church.
I don't know if any of you know that i suffer from ocd/scrupulosity and that it makes me feel guilty all the time.
I feel guilty for loving my husband in case i am turning him into an idol of the heart!
I feel guilt for buying anything in case i am materialistic.
Guilty for loving my dog.
Guilty if i enjoy something.
Guilty for not following Gods' will (whatever that is).
Guilt, guilt, guilt.
I feel that i am stifling my true character in case i offend God.
I used to be afraid of hell, now i am afraid that i won't have eonian life!!!! i can't win.
So i am going to have a rest from it all and see where God leads me.
God bless and i hope that you all get on and keep well.
Nancy

Dear Nancy,
That made me smile, because who can't relate to "the guilt trip". :) I hope you find peace and joy in your journey.....I like to take time alone with God also, to reconnect ~ one on one! We have a personal relationship with our Creator through Jesus Christ that we must not neglect. ;)
Blessings to you,
Lisa

Hey Nancy
You have been a shinning star here in the Forum!
I was in confession when I was still a practising Catholic. I was in tears because a Catholic friend had said to me that the Holy Spirit was not in me. It was devestating to me and it landed me on my knees in tears for the "bad" thoughts that this opened up in me towards this so called friend.
In the middle of my Confession the Priest whispered almost under his breath as if talking to himself he said "Guilt is the sin"
Peace be to you as you be still
Arcturus :)

Hi Arcturus,
You said,
In the middle of my Confession the Priest whispered almost under his breath as if talking to himself he said "Guilt is the sin"
I have felt guilty over different things myself, but I have never thought of
"feeling guilty" as a sin. Would you explain what you mean a little more?
