What's up

Well, I have been struggling lately bc of elections and stuff bc I really don't know much about the candidates. And now I feel like I have to know everything about them. Even worse my grandma just mentioned something about people talking about putting chips in us, which would be the mark of the beast and it scares me so bad. I just feel awful and like things will never get better and I will never be sure what i believe again

I'm not going to say that nothing is going on. It is true that the world is going to end someday no matter who u vote for. I know it can be scary. No one knows when it's going to end tho. The best I can say is that when u belong to Jesus wen u accept him as ur only saviour there is no harm that will come to you. I believe that before the really bad stuff happens, he is going to take his people. The best we can do is keep believing and u do not have to live in anxiety and trouble urself over the bad things happening. We still have to proceed with life rn. So yes acknowledge that the end will come who knows when and there are things happening but also keep living. It is ok to laugh and enjoy. U do not have to live scared. Choose the candidate u think best.

Thank you. I will try. I honestly try not to watch anything political or news because it makes me very anxious. So I honestly don't know much about the candidates or anything. It makes me scared. I dont want to look up things about them because that will make me anxious. I don't want to just go with what my parents say but I'm really scared to find out the views of the candidates because I'm also afraid I will disagree with my family and that will make me confused and I don't know what to do :(:(

I too wouldn't know who to vote for. And it doesn't make us a bad Christian for not knowing. I too, at 27, am too confused and wouldn't know enough about who to vote for. I'm in the UK but I have a lot of family in America, so it's all talk aat the minute. It's hard because the elections are everywhere right now. You guys even have adverts on TV about presidents 👀🙄😂.. Kinda bizzare to us, outsiders of the USA. Do you think it would relieve any pressure right now to not vote this year?

Perhaps. I talked to my mom about it and felt good that she said I didn't have to vote if I didn't feel ready. I thought she would tell me I should vote but she said it was fine with her if I didn't. She also told me she would help me search for things online if I wanted to know something about a candidate (I think bc she knows there is a lot of lies online about each candidate and so she wanted to help me find good sources) which is nice. I guess I just got really stressed. Neither candidate is perfect so I guess I will just try to make an informed decision or decide not to vote.

I am a believer too. I am on the same boat. I dont know who to vote for either. I do want to see read up on some of the Propositions. They are so confusing though too! Anyway, there is still some time to think or ponder upon.

I am sort of. I guess I just feel like I will just choose who my parents chose. And I feel like life doesn't really have any good in it anymore :(

I kind of want to not vote bc I feel like I am not sure on the topics enough and honestly feel like neither candidate is very good for our country. I know that would upset my parents though. (I'm 19 and still live at home so first presidential election and can vote in 😌) I wish I understood things better but I don't. :(

If you suffer from Christian OCD and feel Jesus hates you and you’re going to hell every few seconds but I keep fighting it because when I pray it says Lucifer and I refuse to pray to him. If I do Jesus will send me to hell. I’m terrified. When does it end. Some Christian’s are so peaceful, I want that.. why.. I feel cursed forever. I have faith in others journey… not mine. I’m stuck like this forever. My mind will never be the same.

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?
