    I already know in my heart that I am undeserving of another flawed human beings genuine love…. So to try to allow God to love me seems impossible…. But I am willing to do whatever it takes to experience the full freedom in Christ… 💕

    I started crying when you mentioned that we have to disconnect from a punish and fear-based relationship. It's been hard to see God as a loving Father even though I know He loves me, I just don't feel like He does at times. I think I have more fear than love.

    This is EXACTLY what I am going through. God showed me the Hebrews didn’t have a love relationship with Him. The didn’t enter the promised land because of ‘unbelief’. Not unbelief in His existence, they saw His power, unbelief in His heart for them. Every crisis they faced they lashed out at Him as if He could not be trusted and He set them up for failure. “We were better off in Egypt”.

      Hebrews was the book in study that made me realize I might not be saved or in relationship w God. Scared me to death. I'm still struggling big time, but starting to realize God's been w me, stood by me, etc. It's just hard because I don't know what it's like to really be loved or just don't accept it.

      I know you don't know me, but you've just touched my heart 💕 in the most profound way ... I prayed for God to help me experience a pathway into recieving His love, in spite of my heart belief that He doesn't care about me, seemingly at times like my earthly father (now in Heaven). I need to simply believe in His heart for me and His good intensions for me - life changing as I can now enter into His promised land of milk, honey, and His love 💕😊 ... a melding of our hearts in delightful harmony 💕 😊 ...
      Bless you for sharing ...

    I've cried out to Him so many times when the overwhelming fear hits. I don't think He cares. He no longer comforts me like He once did. I know He is good no matter what, but I feel abandoned.

    Your right about crying it does release things that helps the healing. I believe God made us that way. Only thing that’s hard is feeling the pain in the crying. Maybe ppl avoid crying and stuff it because they don’t want to feel the pain. I’ve been there more times than I want to think about. I see looking back it does bring healing eventually

    Very timely...its quite scary for me to let God love me.. I know it stems from the severe child abuse that I endured.

    Balled through this whole video. Was so timely since I was really struggling with this today. This fear has really controlled my life so much, and led me to make so many poor choices throughout my life which is really painful and brings up a lot of guilt. But its so comforting to know gods love covers it all

    Really well timed. This is something I have been thinking about this week. As my scrupulosity was dominating my thinking over especially the last year-ish, it led to me struggling to be able to pray or get quiet, to a point where I barely want to try (I had been praying daily or more beforehand, but that may have also been partially a compulsion) . Like I want to pray, but I feel like I'm internally getting my head ripped off the second I try to do anything. Then that gets compounded by guilt for not praying in the first place. Things are improving, but this has still been a really rough area.

    Praise God for with Him and in Him all we can endure, knowing our confort cones from Him! In accordance with this word and 1 john 4:18, philippians 4:13, 2 corinthians 6:14-18 I bind to hell every fear of losing someone or something one loves in my life, the lives of my family, friends, colleagues, neighbours, acquitances, opponents and the body of Christ while binding one to know knowing in Chrost one can endure and is comforted, binding to hell every unequal yoke and common share with anyone fearing of losing something or someone one loves while lacking to understand in Christ one can endure and is conforted, in the name and blood of Jesus Christ, amen and hallelujah, glory to God ❤!

    Such a Great Topic. That was very very good Mark. Always when I come to a point where I come close to God and try to let his love in, I sense that fear of what will happen. What will happen when I let him love me? It’s so crazy but Perect Love casts out fear, so God has probably a solution and a way for me to overcame that fear and experience that Love from the inside out ☺️🙏

    How about if you struggle to believe in god as a Christian for two year? I shame myself that I decided to get baptized out of fear and not of love. I struggle to believe he's real 😔. I struggle with anxiety and worry and then feel physical symptoms. I dont know how to receive gods love if I don't believe.

    Trying to build a relationship with God again? Where do I start? Reading the Bible, prayer, church ?

    • @franklollo8844
      @franklollo8844 2 года назад +5

      I would suggest start out by praying. It’s a direct contact with God, and all you need is faith! Just talking to God, thanking Him, and acknowledging His love and goodness. Going to church or getting involved with one is amazing, because having a community and the comfort of of others who have the same intentions of you is great! Reading the Bible is good, my suggestion would be don’t get caught up in reading an excessive amount. What I mean is don’t worry about reading a certain amount of chapters per day or reading it in a period of time. What I started out with and several other people is one chapter a day. This allows for you to retain information but also store it in your heart, not just know it. I started with proverbs, there are 31 chapters so you can do one each day for a month. After that (or if you choose not to do that), the Gospels are 100% the place you want to start at or read when you first start reading scripture. It’s the Good News, the life of Christ. I suggest reading John first, and if you want you can read all 4 (John, Matthew, Luke, Mark). Never be shamed to look up context help on Christian websites because scripture can get confusing sometimes as well. Most importantly, just remember to connect with God and have that relationship, to soak in His Love and Grace. Because if we don’t slow down sometimes and keep it simple, we can burn ourselves out. The greatest commandment is to Love God with all your heart, mind, and soul, so just remember to Love God before anything else!

    Will watch the video but I had a question I hope you can answer. I don’t know if you’ve made a video on this. I’ve watched A LOT of them, though lol. My question is: What does it feel like when OCD/Anxiety is not present as much anymore? I’m used to having so much of my head space be filled with those and now that it’s improving, it’s like I’m having anxiety over not having anxiety. I hope this makes sense. I literally just woke up lol.

    sometimes we cannot embrace Gods's love because we think that we always are gonna be blessed and when we go to large season of struggle (any kind of struggles) we think that God doesnt love us. Instead of saying that even tho our problems (because he never says that every moment of our lives we are gonna be blessed) he is with us, and he is helpings us, because remember things can always get worse, but the bible says that god he will let us go through things that we cannot bear
