Have hatred for the world and the people in it; no love towards them.

Q: Really in need of advice here. I carry a lot of hatred for this world ....and for many of the people in it. I know i shouldnt but i do. Everywhere I look social media, the news, even just stepping outside all I see is injustice, evil, and suffering. It feels like we’re truly in the end times, and honestly, I’m just sick of being here. I’m tired and I feel ready to return to the Lord. For a long time, I used marijuana daily to numb how deeply I felt about all of this, especially my anger. But I recently had to quit (which I believe was God intervening), and now that I’m sober, I still feel as before but in addition feel everything even more intensely. I struggle with rage. It’s not just getting mad it’s a full-body, overwhelming physical reaction. I feel my blood boiling, I start sweating, and it takes over. I feel like i need to take revenge against any person who i feel is evil. Like it’s my personal duty even though i know it’s God’s. It’s not something I can breathe through or ta...

Counseling hasn't helped our marriage & decided to leave to seperate

Q: Can you please pray for me? I took a step of faith to leave an abusive marriage. It’s caused me mental health issues.  He has cheated twice. He is verbally/mentally abusive. It actually almost cost me my life and I wouldn’t be here with my kids if it wasn’t for God pulling me through that. God didn’t tell me to divorce but feel its right for me to separate. Also, I have been supporting our family financially 9 yrs. He has not contributed. I will not renew my lease here so that he won’t help out. The Bible is also clear on boundaries isnt it? The gaslighting, manipulation was too much. I will leave till next month and the days feel long.  He continues to try to pick a fight. He says I’m a promiscuous woman and sleep with other people when this entire marriage I have never cheated on this man and it’s frustrating. He also tells me "I am not covered by God’s protection" since im leaving him. We have had many counselors within church and outside of church. I believe God will ...

Harsh words by brethren after counsel & return to church

Q: I went through a very hard time in my walk recently and honestly slowly I feel like I’m coming out of it but through that time I would obviously open up to the people I thought I was close with. One of the ladies we got along well we use to sit on the phone a lot. When I told her what I was going through she had compassion she did and she did pray with me. But idk if it’s because of her personality but speak of the things she said was a little harsh and slowly we started to talk less and I know on my end I kind of went into my shell. I feel like she kinda looked at my situation as foolishness and she basically told me that it’s either I choose to trust Jesus or trust the devil, because I fell into sin. The Lord end up showing me why I fell into sin and it had something to do with the healing of my younger self.  I recently returned to church for the first time in a while, and she saw me and said oh your back at church? and I was like yeah, and her response was “about time”. I kn...
