i literally cannot breathe sometimes. All my thoughts are focused on God and I cannot make them stop. Every time I try to pray it’s like something is blocking me from having a true, chill, and honest conversation with God. It’s so bad and it hurts so much and all the bad thoughts come at me and fight me and i just need to breathe. I’m so tired…
Jesus loves you so much, he understands everything about you and he loves you dearly, you are saved and sealed with the Holy Spirit and are precious in his sight. All of your doubts, fears, insecurities, sins, are paid for and you are eternally his. Nothing can separate you from him no matter what.! Rest in that :) and know that he is with you and is gonna get you through this battle we all face, he will never leave you. It’s all gonna be okay 🙏🏻💜✝️
I’m new here. Very early in my journey. I think sometimes we live in so much fear and are plagued by the constant thoughts that we forget that we are already free. Like God has full authority over what we’re scared of. And you do too. “The same spirit that resurrected Jesus from the dead lives inside of you” and “nothing can separate you from the love of God” nothing. Peace isn’t something we have to fight to obtain or earn, it’s already ours. What happens is we do things to resist that peace. We believe the lies. When I find myself spiraling I take a few deep breathes, ground myself (look at what’s in front of me of me to keep my mind from wandering) and say to myself “you have permission to just be. You can just be. You can live in peace, it’s yours”. Worship music helps me a lot, sometimes a just rock myself, breathe, cry and if all I can say is “Jesus please help me” that’s enough. The song A Sound Mind by Melissa Helser is one of my favorites. He loves you so much, you’re going to be ok
I have the same ocd with religion and I feel condemned cause of it
I suffer from awful demonic blasphemous thoughts and it breaks my heart! I love God & Jesus so much and pray that even tho I have these awful thoughts I pray they never leave me and still love me! It’s like the more I fight it the harder it comes back! I’m so exhausted and feel so unloved & condemned.
@Cammy123 i’m sorry you’re also going through this. may God get you and all of us through this❤️
i’m so caught up in figuring out my obsessions because i don’t want them to come true. i have been obsessing over the devil and whether or not he can possess or control me and it won’t go away. i don’t know what to do. i’m so tired all the time and i don’t feel like myself anymore. i can’t keep up with my schoolwork and can barely take care of myself. i’m also in college so it’s hard being on my own.
it’s been getting really hard to pray. like the thoughts are constant. i can’t concentrate, and it’s just tiring. i feel like a failure to God sometimes. I know that’s not true but still. Not to mention that praying is a compulsion of mine and i do it a lot so i’m just stressed out all the time. I feel bad if i don’t pray over the littlest things. because ik my prayer can make a big impact. i’ve had ocd for years, so none of this is new but it’s like coming at full force. how am i supposed to have a relationship with God if my prayer life isn’t doing well?
it’s gotten to the point where it’s way too hard to pray. i can’t pray. so many bad thoughts at once and it’s too much and i can’t tell which ones are mine bc there’s too much. I can’t read the bible or anything. and then i get thought that makes me feel bad for not praying or reading my bible and it’s awful. ik God is good but these thoughts are scary and not okay and i’m afraid He doesn’t want me anymore and idk what to do. i try to reason with myself but it only does so much. i just can’t deal with it and ive prayed ab my ocd but it hasn’t gone away
