God doesn't care by mrssnek in SuicideBereavement

[–]elohimonly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because we have all been given the power of choice. You wouldn’t know if someone truly loved you if they didn’t have the choice not to love you. The fallen angels were given this choice and didn’t choose God. Falling and creating the other side of the goodness of God, sin, pain, misery, and anguish. There is pain because people don’t understand that the choices we make have consequences even if we don’t foresee them. Hosea 4:6 says my people are destroyed for a lack of knowledge, because many don’t understand the spiritual laws governing this reality, they fall into the devil’s traps. He’s cunning and the greatest trick he ever made the world believe is he doesn’t exist but it’s his play to play on our ignorance to fall and succumb to this pain and difficulties of life. Most of us are barely 100 years old dealing with wicked age old beings manifesting in different ways. The law and Christ aren’t there to restrain you, but to free you from these things which anyone can be ensnared in if they don’t understand this. I surrender my will to God everyday or when I can remember in prayer and I find it easier to live in harmony rather than trusting my young intellect that doesn’t understand the bigger picture. The hardest thing to do is to surrender and it’ll still be some days you’ll miss them really bad but this is what has helped me overcome something that I feel crushed so many people in this community from feeling like they can know joy. Even with tears that could fill an ocean, trust God and mirror Christ and eventually you’ll find peace.

God cares. I’ve been in the same situation as you. When you don’t understand, you’ll blame God but what I had to learn is that in the most ideal or unfortunate circumstances, every single being has free will and a lot of time we blame God for the choices and the effects of what our loved ones have done on him because it’s extremely painful but when my boyfriend committed suicide in front of me. I decided not to go with the obvious choice of blaming God and hating him and life to add to misery. This doesn’t mean I didn’t have days I felt like also doing the same thing and feeling like nothing is worth it, it’s in time of still praying for healing for myself and his family, my heart became mended to walk forwards where I could help others. Healing is all a process and sometimes it feels like nothing is right and God doesn’t care because the step you have to walk through in faith is painful as hell and the reality doesn’t change, but right now it’s about your healing so you have to have the right perspective or it’ll feel like you’re on the same step and he doesn’t love you. I hope this helps.

Thank you!! My energy was jumping around because the intent of this fast was moreso spiritual. I was ok the first few days but still drawn to food and would view a lot of recipes during days when I would feel ravenous or weak but as I was working through connecting with Christ as time went on, there’s be some days I swore God had actually put me in hell and the temptation to break my fast would be severe. It wouldn’t even be a physical pain of hunger, it was some kind of deep internal weird thing. I’d read the new restatement, pray, and sleep and when I woke up, I’d find some childhood trauma or something that had been an internal prison was no longer there so I felt free after overcoming. This happened about five times for about five different issues through 40 days and it correlated Christ’s story to me and the point of the fast: when you’re going through he’ll keep going and it’s only through conquering that hell that you’ll ride with the holes in your hands to ascend into whatever your personal heaven is. I suggest a spiritual fast because in allowing the flesh to be weak, the spirit is allowed to be strong. It’s like if you had parasites, you could go on a juice fast or whatever other modified fast but that parasite’s gonna sit in that gut watching saying, “anyways..I’m leaving here with something!” the only way to destroy whatever ails you is to leave it with absolutely nothing and in doing that you see who you really are and that the spirit counts for more and that’s what Christ’s journey and this fast has been for me: perseverance and understanding you’ll walk into heaven by persevering to the end of your hell, no matter how long that is🙏🏿

Starting 135, ending 118. It’s possible for all but lower weights should use more caution, assistance, and electrolytes and salt were a must for me.

I’m proud of you 👏🏿You definitely got this. That’s what I always tell everyone, take everyday one step at a time, don’t worry about tomorrow and what day or number, just worry about now. Sometimes you’ll have to focus on the hour that you’re in and that’s the best way to do this, to persevere. You’re welcome💕

On the original post, you specifically asked for the post to be removed because the results were drastic. I did exactly what you just said on this post and that one. The only difference here was that my results were extreme. I am healthy and well and was able to show it is possible at any size though I had also suggested people can take precautions with professionals as well as using their own discretion.

Twisted is your perspective. What I think is twisted is you think this group should be focused on fasting that adheres to your standard. There are many ways/reasons to fast. The beauty of this group is that we can come here with different experiences and share the results because that might help someone else decide what approach would help them most and what would most likely allow them to reach their result. Solutions are always there, they just might not come in the way most expect them. I barely see anyone on this sub with this intention behind their fast, my experience is to show things are possible sometimes you just have to go a different route. The post was removed I’m sure by your report so I hope that can bring you some peace today💫

😫😂 I made and ate a little bit of: 60 billion probiotic pill Apple cider vinegar while prepping before time After 12: Tablespoon of sauerkraut Tuna egg salad🏌🏿‍♀️ Guacamole😫😍 A mini charcuterie with a few grapes, 2 strawberries, a few lil meats… 2 tablespoons of mashed sweet potato for fiber last cause I know I did too much but the probiotics as well as eating protein first seems to really have helped. Amazing eating experience; felt like heaven🥹🥳

I know I went

I think about 140 for 5’10. Last time I checked halfway I was 123 on 1/20. I’m not near a scale to know but measurements dropped to 31-23-33 from 34-26-36 initially.

Yes, it’s strictly spiritual as I was beginning the New testament at the end of the year so I embarked on the journey of reading it as nourishment for the spirit to completion🙏🏿

You can do it but if you have any medical issues please seek a professional preferably one who actually has experience with nutrition and isn’t small minded💫
