I feel Lost and alone

(Hi everyone, it's good to be around family again.... :D)
Hi Carol...(It was very nice (and overdue) to talk with you today ;)...All that I can say is to just be patient in the Lord and wait for the wisdom and the peace that comes with making a decision that is based on HIS WILL so that you do not make a wrong choice! (BTW, Carol and I live 3 hrs away from each other here in West Texas :D)...
I guess that I get confused as to when the word says 'what fellowship does light have with darkness' and to 'not be spiritually unyoked to unbelievers.' Is this referring to those type of believers who are in christian churches? I mean, how can there be spiritual unity with a couple where one thinks that the christian church is satans throne and where the other loves it with their whole being? Either way you are correct Arc, we are to love everyone, regardless of their spiritual beliefs....This is a very delicate situation...I will be praying for both of you Carol and Decas.
Deborah-Leigh:
I believe that we can be unequally yoked to no one if we are yoked to Christ.
It is the Church that again distorts corrupts and manipulates the meaning of the word of God to divide and rule and ruin marital relationships by through abuse of the scriptures. I remember that His words are not literal they are spirit and they are Truth but the Church would make them literal to suit its own blindness.
I too look forward to reading Ray's teaching on this subject.
Peace to you
Arcturus :)

Hi there decas247,
I'm so sorry that you are feeling like this. I know exactly what you are going through because i sort of went through it.
When i met my husband, i was going to church and was a 'christian' with a very screwed up brain (i subsequently found out that i suffer from obsessive compulsive disorder).
I'd had a bitter distrust of men in general because of my upbringing, then i met Jason who is Jewish. My head was screaming that i shouldn't be with him, my heart wouldn't let him go.
After a terrible time, aswell as having to cope with my OCD, and seeing various counsellors, i have a happy marriage in which we understand each other perfectly (he suffers with depression) but we never really discuss my faith.
This is really all i can say. I do sympathise with you, life isn't easy. But God knows we are only human and everything is in His hands. You couldn't do anything against His will anyway, how could you?
I don't feel that i have helped but just giving my experience.
Godbless
Nancy
Grateful:
Hello, Nancy!
I am so very happy to hear that you have a happy marriage!!! :D :D
I too have suffered from depression (pretty badly, too!!). Also, I have one tiny OCD.....I can't stand food particles between my front teeth, and floss them several times a day. HAHAHA!!! But, seriously though, I have discovered that whenever a thought strikes me to do something at all remotely "iffy", I sit back and think "Do I REALLY want to do this (whatever it happens to be)??" If the answer is 'NO", I simply CHOOSE NOT to do it, and therefore I DON'T!!! That simplifies my life in LOTS of ways!!! Therefore my life feels like a gentle zephyr, with much more EASE than I have ever experienced..... O, WHAT a FEELING!!! HALLELUJAH!!!
Nancy, have a VERY Fair day, and be WELL!!! God BLESS!! (definition of 'bless' = to make happy, as in "bliss") :D :D :D
Linda ::)
gmik:
Linda, flossing all day, just picturing it.... :D :D :D
Just wanted to say I still take my pills for depression/anxiety, but yet to know me or see me you wouldn't know. I want to ween off them before I retire tho-won't be able to afford em.
I think teaching&menopause has been a big culprit.
