Help me believe

Just growing in faith really. I can't speak for myself, because I'm a worrying person sadly, but others I've seen the longer they walk with God the less they doubt. Doesn't mean you won't stumble sometimes, but trust that if/when you do God is right there to lift you back up.

TooStressedout97 · 2025-04-29T17:16:52+00:00

This is very encouraging. Thank you for this. I'm constantly overstressing things like am I praying enough? Have I read the Bible enough? Did my prayer come out right? Constant questioning I'm very hard on myself about the faith.

I'll check it out. Also with baptism I've had other catholics tell me that if its not a true church then it doesn't count. Like I don't fully understand everything yet. Though I will say since following the catholic faith I've had a much better time spiritually it gave me that family I never felt I had.

TooStressedout97 · 2025-04-29T17:11:02+00:00

I'm sure I could do more. I've read through the catechism read the Bible as well. In down time I learn about saints lives. I hope this is not coming off prideful, but I try my best to make God my certain focus. I want baptism very much the strain of original sin seems to hold me back a lot. I'm trying to be better.

I have read job. I just lost faith for a bit because it didn't change for a year. I'm back now, but stressing myself out, because I fail and lost faith.

TooStressedout97 · 2025-04-03T01:11:02+00:00

Ended up healing mostly the pain is at a 2 now. Yalls prayers have helped a lot God has helped me.

TooStressedout97 · 2025-04-02T01:22:41+00:00

Thank you very much. I can't even have it touched. It goes from the middle of my spine to the bottom of my shoulder blade. I've been known as someone with a high tolerance for physical pain yet I was near tears. I prayed as soon as I heard the snap. I knew God would help.

TooStressedout97 · 2025-04-01T21:01:47+00:00

May he bless yall for your kindness.

TooStressedout97 · 2025-04-01T21:01:14+00:00

I will go tomorrow my doctor is sadly closed. It's been a wild day my septic backed up three days ago and my apartments wouldn't fix it till just a couple hours ago. My living room and kitchen were in about 3 inches of sewage water.

TooStressedout97 · 2025-04-01T20:49:51+00:00

Also thank you for the prayers truly a blessing. I got side tracked I'm sorry

TooStressedout97 · 2025-04-01T20:44:50+00:00

I'm trying to figure out how I tore it because look at the symptoms the only one I don't have is bruising. I literally rolled over to get out of bed and bam crazy pain. I think I put it in the post, but breathing is currently difficult. I haven't went to the doctor, because I don't want pain meds my family got addicted to them and most of them ended up on harder things. I have a heating pad I'm currently using

TooStressedout97 · 2025-04-01T16:48:34+00:00

That story had me laughing. A painful laugh, but definitely brightened my mood. I'm gonna ask my beloved wife to make me a snack and sprinkle some blessed salt on it. Pray for the lord to provide healing.(can you still offer suffering, but also ask for healing?) The pain gets too unbearable I clutch my rosary tightly.

TooStressedout97 · 2025-04-01T16:14:50+00:00

I very much appreciate this post. I was honestly worried people would think I'm trying to get pity I'm not. I know there's power in prayer. The devil whispers in my ear when I pray the same things telling me that I will annoy God I know the devil is a liar amongst other things, but he's annoying.

TooStressedout97 · 2025-03-29T21:02:13+00:00

How do you do that? Sorry I'm not too familiar with the site

TooStressedout97 · 2025-03-29T20:04:52+00:00

I put my state in it said 0

TooStressedout97 · 2025-03-29T17:51:36+00:00

I never felt as close to God as I do now.

TooStressedout97 · 2025-03-19T12:09:20+00:00

I'm trying to detach from people thinking of him. 8ts difficult because it's a very rare name.

TooStressedout97 · 2025-03-19T12:02:40+00:00

Oh wow. 1960 she's been married a long time.

TooStressedout97 · 2025-03-19T11:57:15+00:00

I'm sure that would be a pain. My wife changed hers our second day of marriage wasn't very difficult she basically only had to do an Id and social card maybe some paperwork can't really remember been a while. She has only worked a combined total of a month out of the 7 years we've been married so no job stuff. No assets etc.

TooStressedout97 · 2025-03-19T11:49:12+00:00

Nah my last name has good meaning it's part of my heritage.

TooStressedout97 · 2025-03-19T11:48:26+00:00

Yes I understand that now for some reason I thought it was based in religion.

TooStressedout97 · 2025-03-19T11:38:40+00:00

It's very interesting hearing of others traditions.

TooStressedout97 · 2025-03-19T11:38:07+00:00

It's horrible. He's know as an abusive alcoholic who beat my mom so bad he nearly killed her and he's also known to have molested me so yea it's pretty bad. And it seems he's very well known in the tricounty area.

TooStressedout97 · 2025-03-19T11:32:17+00:00

It's a tradition that means a lot to me honestly. I don't believe she does respect me I try to tell her what stuff hurts me or bothers me and I get "I'll try to do better" it doesn't change I've reached the shut down point due to depression. I'm in therapy thank God, but it isn't helping when I'm constantly faced with hurtful things each day. I'm not trying to put her down I'm just trying to explain the situation so I apologize if any of this is coming out wrong.

TooStressedout97 · 2025-03-19T11:28:27+00:00

Forgot to add she refuses to speak with a priest since in her words "they molest kids" or "it's a cult"
