Could use some faith & friends
| Mon, 11-14-2005 - 9:38pm |
Hello everyone,
I discovered this board last week and have been lurking ever since. I have enjoyed many of the topics and thought it was time to chime in.
I am in a confused, anxious, place right now and need to find my way to becoming more centered and faith driven. I attend school full-time and have a family to take care of. I feel stressed out a lot and crave inner peace.
Hope to get to know you all and make new friendships,

Welcome, Star.
Hey, Star!
Wow!
Hi Star
What's the confusion? What is making you anxious? Why at this 'point' do you need to more centred and faith driven?
You have a lot on your plate right now, if you believe that the things you are doing (studying etc) are what you know to be right for you right now, relax, take a deep breath and find a small tiny space for 'just' 3 minutes and pray, hand over to God the confusion, anxiety, leave them with Him/Her and get on with living Can you add to your life one more minute by worrying? Will you become less confused?? No, well then, find your way of gaining that peace from your creator.
Look at why there may be confusion in your life right now and address it, I once read that peace is not the absence of worry, anxiousness, confusion, turmoil etc but that peace is living in the worry, anxiousness, confusion, turmoil, peacefully (and I believe you can only do that with God) so call on Him/Her spend three minutes (yes only three minutes) the time it takes to boil an egg, brush your teeth...................ask for the clarity you need, the strength you require and the eyes to see you as God see you.
