Finding things very difficult today. I hope God forgives me. I'm due to go to medjugorje soon. Perhaps things are difficult because it is Holy week and the devil is attacking me
I just caught up on the last few pages of this thread. I went through this a few years ago. A few things that helped me 1) after a good confession god always forgives us. If you feel differently this is not God 2) God never causes us to go through these trials, but he allows it. The cause is not from God but from the evil one. 3) the closer we draw to God the stronger the demons we face. we open doors that allow these demons through. We just need to know God is allowing it to bring us closer to him. Are you married? If so I have found great benefit in finding the saint of our wedding day and asking them to join me in prayer. god is good all the time. God does not abandon us. We don’t always see what he is doing to help us. Sometimes that allowing us to struggle so we grow closer. St Joseph pray for us.
Thanks again for this Terry. I love God and hope he can help me. I'm sorry I offended God in the past. Prayers needed
Mother Angelica used to say that you should never presume that your sins are greater than God’s mercy. That helped put things in perspective for me. Am praying for your healing during Holy Week.
You confessed it, correct? You told Him you were sorry. You were absolved. You must take it on faith that He forgave you. To do otherwise Peter is to doubt His mercy and His Word and that is something you must not do. Please please please stop doubting.
I'm suffering at the moment. I hope God and Our Lady can help me. I keep telling God that I am sorry. Could do with prayers. Feeling under attack. Perhaps it is the week that is in it that the evil one is getting more aggressive
Bartolo Longo was a ‘priest’ in the ‘church’ of Satan. Now he is a Blessed, one step away from being canonized. Yup, I’m certain that God forgives you. m.
I received two hosts today at Holy Communion from the priest by accident. Is that a good sign? I read it happened to the little Flower in her diary
I feel abandoned by God at the moment. I keep telling Him I am sorry for my sins. I don't know why he is acting this way to me. Jesus felt abandoned by God too so perhaps it is the same with me.
A good time for you to meditate on the scene in the Garden of Gethsemane. In anguish, Jesus sweated drops of blood, but never abandoned His trust in the Father. Jesus, I trust in Thee! Father, I believe in Your Providential Care!
