I attempt to pray every night. but I get distracted. it really does help to pray like he is beside you.
like, Hey man, I've been feling down lately, anything you can do? & so on.
i am sometimes like that but I tend to be a little bitter toward God and I can’t help it

I appreciate your suggestion but I mostly stick with the Bibl. I don’t even watch tv or play video games. My life has been taken over by Christian material, like pray.com, worship music and sermons.
it is a young adult novel, but the story is essentially, hes going through extreme trauma, h is broken, God can come help, nevermnd, story can't really be summed up like that.

Unfortunately, we have to act like everything is fine in our daily lives (such as work, errands, functions, etc.). It seems to get easier to fake as you get older. I've been faking acting like everything is fine for decades. But, yeah it's not pleasant :cautious:
oh yeah, I am really good at faking. having to hide all this for three years.... i am too good at faking. tiny lies are amost every othem sentence.

Yes, I can relate to those types of lies. I used to work with hundreds of people and if was going through something but had to act like I wasn't, by the time I'd get home I felt like I'd lied hundreds of times that I have a smashing day and doing great or life is just grand. For some reason, no one wants to hear that you aren't have a smashing day lol.

as in, probably (I hope) worse than your trauma. he saw his friends all shot in a school shooting, and was almost shot one himself. because of Demons.

Just take it day by day and hour by hour. I was having a rough day yesterday and , honestly, I was having really negative thoughts and felt being let down by so many people.

So I went to take a walk and started to just pray and I felt a little bit better afterwards. Thank you, Lord Jesus for always being there for us. Thank you, Holy Spirit for living inside us.
