All I see is death and misery. I have lost a parent and a grandparent this year. I feel abandoned by God.
God cannot abandon you because He is in every one of us.
He will test you, but only you can abandon God.
It's a hell of a test. Not sure how much more pain I can endure.
Hold the line fren. Focus on truth. God has not abandoned you. Read Luke 2 and get some sleep. Prayers. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke+2&version=ESV
This will be my first Christmas without my mom. I don't want to sleep. I don't want to experience tomorrow.
But thanks. I've read what you said and it helped a little.
Hang in there Fren. Console yourself that they are in a better place now.
The Past is unchangeable. The Future is full of potential, and we are on the edge of the Golden Age of Mankind, so stick around! Its going to turn out great.
Seriously though. What kind of awful test is this? The fuck did I do to deserve this? I want to be unmade by this accursed "Creator". He made me just to suffer? Really?
Has your entire existence been one long suffer? Have you been without a single moment of joy or true love?
Life isn't about what is done to you. It is about what you do.
It seems anyone who brings me joy or love leaves me one way or another.
I did everything I could to save my mom. I toiled for years for her. Didn't fucking matter!! She's still fucking dead!!!!
Editing to balance this a bit.
No my existence has not been unmitigated suffering without joy or love. However, the scales are tipped heavily toward suffering lately.
No… He created us not to suffer but to learn. We suffer because sometimes those feelings supersede our blessings in our minds… we suffer hard and yet we are blessed many times our rate of suffering. Reality is never easy but we are never burdened beyond our capabilities. Everyone is different and their thresholds are too… right now our reality is painful and distressing but we are ready. We have been given a near impossible job to do… together we will heal and comfort our fellow human beings… in our pursuit of wisdom, we have stumbled into the epic suffering of the innocent. There’s horrific suffering right there. Every day I thank God for my trials and tribulations! They are nothing like those we have worked to rescue. I am humbled beyond words by children who have seen humanity’s damnation up close and can smile with joy at the simplest of things. That is a treasured blessing on its own. Be at peace fren, you have more than you know and so much more than most. We are with you and your suffering is our own… let our blessings be shared too! Love and warm wishes to you! God is with us in this place. Fear not fren for we are far from alone! ♥️🐸♥️
Thanks for your kind words. Been having a hard time seeing the "big picture" lately.
Think of the story of Job. Don't let the evil ones temptations entice you. Think of all he lost, and how he was afflicted with such misery. Being blameless he felt forsaken, but in the end he was blessed double.
Troubled times sharpen your spirit. If life was easy how easy it would be to have faith. Yet in hard times having faith requires more. Its difficult yes. But always remember no matter how bad you have it in life there is some who is out that who is in a far worse situation and needs those with faith to pray for them.
Im sure a lot of us here could tell you our heartbreaking life stories.
