Today I was trying to figure out something at work, and some people were watching and I was taking longer than expected. I said to myself, “why am I so stupid” and I felt like I was angry and I felt like I was angry at God. I’m worried because I felt like I cursed God in my heart. I’m worried because who am I to be mad at God. I want to have reverence, and I just don’t know what to do. It feels like my heart is hard.
When I run into this , I ask God for peace and comfort and ask for forgiveness for my mistakes and lapses of disrespect. I figure if I am sincere He will forgive me of my mistakes and transgressions.
@777Q Can I ask for some support please? 18+? On Pocd if that’s okay?
@GreenTurtle098 Sorry, I am unfamiliar with that type .
Fellow Christian with ocd here - God already knows your heart and your thoughts more than you do. He is with you, and He is in Sovereign control. I know it's so so confusing and scary to be a Christian with Ocd. Trust that God made you and lives in you through the Holy spirit, who will reveal to you all that you should know and guide you in the right path. God's voice does not condemn, it convicts for restoration and truth. Trust in Him and do not lean on your own understanding. Trust that if you were saved by grace you are being sanctified by grace and kept by grace. All is grace, and He has more than you will ever need. Stay faithful and keep your focus on Him. God bless my friend 🧡
@Anonymous Thank you so much! This is encouraging

Hi CJ_022. Even if you did get angry at God, you're confessing that you did and wanting to turn away from your anger (repentance), which is good. It sounds to me like you do have reverence for God based on how you're feeling. Also, I don't believe your heart is hard, if it were, then you wouldn't care about your actions. But you do care, and you want to have a growing relationship with God. Just remember that God loves you. He doesn't expect you to be perfect. Don't use your inability to be perfect as an excuse to sin, but also don't let your fear of not being perfect or good enough keep you from having peace with God. Find a proper balance as you continue walking with God day by day. I hope this was helpful friend. :)
@Drew777 Thank you for that bro, and amen!

I don't really know if it's OCD, but lately I've been thinking a lot and in a very obsessive way that every single one of my actions, words or even thoughts will affect on how God will make decisions about my life. For example, if I lie to someone or yell at them out of anger, God will make happen something bad to me as a "punishment". I know it might seem silly, but it really really freaks me out sometimes... Does anyone feel the same? And if so, do you do something in particular to feel better? Thanks for your understanding❤️
OCD has decided to latch onto my religion (Christianity) and I find myself doubting my belief in Jesus Christ. Yet when I research, I even find myself doubting the atheistic and agnostic approach as well. I’ve been a Christian since I was 13, growing up in a non-Christian in truth but nominally Christian household. This is rough. Any advice?
So I’m not sure how many/if any of you are Christians, but I’m assuming this can still make sense to some of you. This morning has been rough. I’m constantly thinking, “am I saved? Have I never been saved and I’m tricking myself into thinking I am? When I’m listening to Christian music am I doing for the right reasons? Is it too late for me?”. Things I know the truthful answers to but yet I still think these thoughts. I don’t understand why. Why do I constantly think about these “what if”’s? My heart always feels so heavy and I feel as if I need to talk to God right then and there to make it stop and go away. But then am I talking to the Lord for the wrong reasons? And the cycle repeats. Thankfully, day one of my therapy is tonight and I’m hoping to find at least a little clarity on this stuff. I’ve had OCD for 7 years and I don’t even know how it works. Any advice?
