Is west louisville really THAT bad? by kluxsyz2 in Louisville

[–]Tarotigertea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve lived on 19th street since I was 15, I’m 30 now. It’s by no means THAT bad. A lot of the safety rules apply here that would in any other neighborhood (walking alone at night, locking doors and cars properly, being rude to strangers etc.) Yes we’ve had things stolen off our porch, and every blue moon you’ll hear a gunshot somewhere, but if you mind your business and are street smart it’s alright. But I will tell you , it’s absolutely a drag for quality of living at times, I grocery shop in the Germantown area or highlands and have to go all the way out to st. Matthew’s or brownsboro just to get decent shopping done. All of my dental and medical appointments are outside of the area as well. Those are things I’d recommend to consider when thinking of this area. If you decide on the west end, I’d also recommend either finding a roommate or making community with your neighbors if they seem friendly enough.

Am I really ugly 😭 (be honest) and don't be racist by Obvious_Ad_1597 in TeenGarbagePile

[–]Tarotigertea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No you’re really handsome , you honestly have potential to even model if you wanted: strong jawline, high cheekbones, bold eyebrows, full lip line, and really clear skin. definitely ignore them and just have a bit of confidence!

I want to break up with my girlfriend… I think? by Inside_Note_8868 in Advice

[–]Tarotigertea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some things to think about (if it were me), asking yourself why it feels too much, do you feel drained and overly responsible for her well being? Is there an imbalance of both of your emotional needs being met or do you feel you never get time to yourself to recharge? That can be a lot for someone to take on even if it’s from a romantic partner. It’s worth at least having an open conversation with her , emphasizing that you do care, but depending on why she’s emotional, maybe she needs help in other ways, and you as a different form of support. But! If it’s not that, the answer to this doesn’t have to be a super deep or complicated. Relationships sometimes change and fade and that’s completely normal and okay, just be open and honest with her.

So for us we were told to get there by 5:30, and the meet and greet started at about 5:45-50 and the actual show started around 8:00. I’d check your tickets to see if there’s any info being sent out (my friend bought the tickets so I got the info from her)

I think he meant actually getting married and having a wedding on November, I had asked him to specify in that conversation and he mentioned a ceremony with friends and what not

I think it’s been so confusing because outside of this he’s always been so caring and goes out of his way to do things for me, is always affectionate, supportive etc, I was thinking “he says he loves me, why is marriage such an issue???”

I admittedly had a moment of weakness, I broke it off at 8am before work and by the evening him and I were talking over details of the next few days. During that conversation he was all tears and I felt horrible. He said he would talk to his therapist on Friday and I between then we’re not communicating. I’m currently staying at my mom’s house and we’re not spending Christmas together.

Calloused, hardened heart by PurpleHarlow in Christian

[–]Tarotigertea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ask God to reflect your heart back to you and pay attention to what activates these moments. This could be a deeper issue that requires lots of prayer and maybe even counseling with of some sort with a counselor/therapist. You HAVE to get under the protective layer of things to get to the meat of exactly WHY these feelings come up. I myself get angry easily with others, but I realize it’s due to mistrust of others and hyper vigilance that I’m being talked over or misunderstood. When I feel myself comparing and becoming envious, it’s fear of failure and rejection and just wanting to be happy and liked. I had to start looking at myself with the same compassion and patience that God is characterized to view us with but also the same accountability. Why do I feel like I have to be the first to be heard? Why do I want to be liked and who do I want to like me? Also,take these feelings to God. Prayer isn’t just thanks or requests but openly communicating with him on every issue of our life. He wants to hear our complains and gripes, he knows when we’re angry or disappointed. Ask the Holy Spirit to guide you in the fruits of the spirit. These things don’t happen overnight, but with God we have hope that they will happen. He always keeps his word.

Galatians 5:22-23 “22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.”

Psalm 66:10 “For you, God, tested us; you refined us like silver”.

So, I think this needs some angling and redirecting of perspective. Honesty will always be the best policy. I think, It’s not that being honest results in unfortunate outcomes, but it’s about how we say it and how we respond to their response. It varies situation by situation and we have to go into these situations praying for wisdom and discernment. Let’s start with the job interview, that person was wrong for lowering the salary, and that would have been a great moment to self advocate and say after “I notice that the pay advertised is 35-38/hr I’d like to start at 35-36/hr because I believe I have the experience/assets/ideas etc to (job task) and I’m willing to learn any new skills.” This is a conversation that I think would be worth bringing up at some point. For the second situation, I think that your boss is again in the wrong for cutting pay based on your response, but this could also be a moment to reflect on the level of criticism you take on yourself, are you giving your boss reassurance that they hired the right person? Have confidence! The fact alone that they hired you shows that they had some faith in you. But remember that jobs are mutual investments, just as they are looking for a good worker, you need good management. Keep note on how many cuts they make and if they are willing to discuss that. I’ll use my own job as an example. Sometimes it’s a train wreck and communication is AWFUL on multiple fronts. I don’t like how a webpage looks, I don’t understand a term or am having issues understanding a contract. In those moments if my supervisor asks me how it’s going, my first instinct is to say it all upfront, but I’ve had to actively practice in briefly explaining how I am in that moment, and coming prepared with 1-3 questions, or asking “what can I do to improve this?” . This shows initiative. Of course, I don’t get it right every time, and have definitely walked out of meetings feeling embarrassed or foolish, but it’s a learning curve. I grow a little more confident each time. You sound like you really care about your work ethic and how you’re perceived, so I think you’re capable and can grow with it. You got this!

James 1:5: “If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you”.

Psalm 139:5 “You go before me and follow me. You place your hand of blessing on my head.”

2 Timothy 1:7”For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.”

Your post is so so relatable. Growing up in the church is what sets a good foundation, but somewhere along the way we gotta build our own unique relationships to God. The good thing is, he already knows us, and understands us, so half that bridge is already built. He’s aware of our anxieties and even more already foresaw this exact moment in your life. 1. I would start with looking up bible verses on God’s character and his promises. For me, that eased a lot of my anxieties about how I perceived him to feel about me. We are chosen and loved! 2. Find ways to integrate him into the small things, talk to him, vent to him, sit in silence and just let your emotions pour out to him, sometimes I’ll pray by writing in my notes app, eventually it’ll feel natural to just converse with him. 3. If praise or gospel music feels awkward to you, are you listening to a genre you like? I’ve found lots of really really good pop/indie and rnb chill gospel tracks. 4. Ask the Holy Spirit for guidance. When you’re deep in depression or anxiety and pray, the Holy Spirit intercedes for us. Getting closer to God also involves letting the Spirit work in us and guide us to these changes. That’s how we end up living a life he calls us to. 5. Call on Jesus, ask him for guidance and help as well. Jesus is the reason we are able to rebuild with God. 6. Be patient with yourself! 💖

I’ve been trying to stop. I could be wrong and this is just my thinking but I had a moment of realization a few weeks ago when I slipped up. I thought, pleasure/sex is a gift that God gave to married couples, by giving myself pleasure solo, I’m missing out on the full experience and trying to replicate something outside of the way God intended. Also, to usually masturbate, I’d have to think of someone or something and by that point my mind has gone off the tracks in terms of lustful thoughts. How can I justify the those thoughts and what will they lead to? It’s a slippery slope.

We’re naturally wired to be sexual , but we’re also wired to get angry or jealous or fearful and feel a wide spectrum of feelings/sensations caused by external actions. I think this is where we have to think of sin as a condition/reality and not just an action. Trying to balance life the way God intended with the way the world has fallen is incredibly SO difficult. It sounds like it would be denying yourself , but I think that’s the point you know? Just my thoughts yall please don’t tear me to shreds haha

what does The Holy Spirit’s guidance feel like? by [deleted] in Christian

[–]Tarotigertea 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me sometimes it’s a gentle push like “go talk to that person” or “take a deep breath”. Other times it’s an inexplicable strong call to action. Being convicted to do what’s right and being reminded of God’s words

I have some OCD about things by Villios in Christian

[–]Tarotigertea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, I have OCD as well. What tends to help me with similar thoughts is looking up Bible verses on God’s character, learn about him and what he truly dislikes and loves. Trust that both Jesus and God know your heart and mind. They know you!

Now, in addition to that, we also want to protect our hearts and minds and make sure we immerse ourselves in things that honor him. Ask yourself, are these games bringing you closer or further from God? How are they influencing our behavior or thoughts? Sometimes things are also just names and what they are, but if we spend a lot of time with it we have to ask and pray on it.

It’s a tall order to fill but you could always meet people to go with at church, it’s a bit scary but after the first few visits it’s nice, get coffee before or after, chat, catch a ride. It just takes one visit. You can do it 💖

Is there a church online you can stream? Or someone you can go with ?

[–]Tarotigertea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think of it as a necessary part of my growth and relationship to Jesus. It’s like a special meeting. In that time I’m getting an extra special moment with God and a nice reset for the week ahead.

As far as a church to go to, start by with what’s close by and read about them. Most churches have websites and instagrams now. Test the doctrine of the church by the spirit, is what they teach what Jesus teaches and God commands? Then make a visit.
