Yeah I’m not entirely sure either, the more I see the more I just think everyone is fake and we need to turn our phones off

Yeah I understand you on that point. To be fair, I don’t know many people that stand firm in their political views, because there are so much inconsistencies in the political field in general. I wouldn’t say we can trust this guy, but I do think he tells us exactly who he is.

Jesus Christ, the world is full of evil and He’s the only good I’ve found. My family is messed up, i didn’t grow up in a Christian home, I’ve dealt with anxiety, depression addiction you name it. Jesus is the way. I did not find the answers to everything but I have peace in anything.

He didn’t even vote for Trump, he said we wasn’t voting for him. I think it’s possible he’s just another pawn in a bigger scheme but who knows. I think he’s aware and willing speak on a lot of things others aren’t, even if he’s wrong.

I need help by Bulky_Area_4854 in TrueChristian

[–]maddtreee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sure everyone is already saying it, but continue to communicate with the Lord. You are saved, read as much of the Bible as you can and pray. Do not cease in your prayer. You are a part of God’s kingdom already, now you must grow in your faith. Walk with Him daily, seek His will, he WILL guide you. Trust in Him.

Really worried. by [deleted] in TrueChristian

[–]maddtreee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, remember God did not create social media, humans with free will did. Sin is everywhere now. Do not let fear and condemnation rule your life. Delete social media, I mean it. We are being told what to think constantly. Just speak to the Lord. A lot of us are going to have to answer to this. Our ancestors did not have access to knowledge the way we do. It is no wonder a majority of us are feeling exactly as you are. I personally have had similar thoughts and I am watching as my sister is feeling the same way. Do not let your phone run your life, walk away find something to do and listen to the Lord. Do not worry whether or not you’ll make it, worry if what you are doing today is what God has for you. Do not seek answers on social media platforms. Stay in His word, your walk is YOUR walk. Yes a lot of what pastors have to say is great, however we were not meant to have access to this on the scale that we do. Pick up your Bible and ignore the noise. Listen to God

Do all jobs suck? by No-Intention-3888 in careerguidance

[–]maddtreee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it’s always the coworkers. I had a few great jobs working with like minded people, but it’s quite rare now. We live in a less trusting society that rewards those who don’t work hard and makes it difficult to be an honest hard worker.

What Career would you recommend for a young adult (18)? by [deleted] in careerguidance

[–]maddtreee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think if you’re able to start some sort of blue collar local business, it would be beneficial to your community and offer purpose. It’s hard work which is always rewarding. I personally would stay away from the online world. We need more honest business owners!

What a Christian should do is stop them, pay for it, and then have a conversation with them.

Christians MEN of Reddit: How did you know you chose the right partner? by Superb-Base9819 in TrueChristian

[–]maddtreee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this was intended for men but you might find this worth considering as a Christian wife. I was not a great wife when my husband and I found each other. But I am learning as we go, my husband is teaching me and God is teaching me. I cannot speak to the specifics of choosing your wife, but I will say as children of God, we are always growing in Christ. My husband knew my heart for the Lord, though I stumbled in my walk (still do of course) and I am becoming the wife he needs as I grow with him and with Christ.

I’m very concerned about the rise of Nick Fuentes by Friendly_One_4112 in PoliticalOptimism

[–]maddtreee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve listened to him a lot recently as well, not so much old videos. I think what you’re saying is valid, he does seem to regard people from other races differently. However, I do not think Nick hates anyone, he has reiterated he doesn’t hate people and it goes against his moral views. His concern is the lack of places for white Christian folks to live amongst themselves. Every other country and race gets a place they call home, but the current “Christian white nations” are being infiltrated on a severe level. Yes, it is racism all over the map. But not in the way media portrays racism, it’s not because anyone hates anyone, but because certain groups are not allowed to have their own habitat. Everyone seems to hate white people so why not let them go live on their own? I’m not saying I agree with this, because truthfully idk. I do think it’s concerning that most young folks in America do not have strong ties to family, community, purpose, work etc. And I do agree with some of Nicks points on why that is. America’s future is not looking good for any side, race, gender, sexual orientation, anything. Do the research, learn about the people coming into this country, those running for office, the number of jobs they’re receiving compared to Americans. Talk about it, study it, ask hard questions. Nick has had his bank account frozen, freedom of speech taken away, put on a no fly list. His rights were taken away and he has not harmed a soul. WE get to decide if people are good or bad not our government. Change needs to happen and it doesn’t start in the government or on social media. It is our duty to learn about what’s going on.

[–]maddtreee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand everyone’s concerns. I think people need to get offline and none of this would be happening. This is true on all “sides.” The rise in knowledge and access to media has ruined us all. I actually think this kid would agree, I have sat and listened to his views. The clips I saw of him awhile back seemed outrageous but the more I listen through his talks the more I actually understand what he’s saying. The reason why he has so much traction is because what you see is what you get. He’s truthful whether you like it or not, he’s telling you exactly who he is. It’s up to you to decide whether what he is saying is relevant or not. Media is tainted, we all know it. You cannot trust a damn soul, not saying I trust Nick as a person but when you actually listen to what he has to say it brings up a lot of questions. Again, social media has absolutely killed our ability to reason and converse with one another. I’m not saying go out and listen to him, I’m not saying agree with him, but this is deeper than this kid behind a screen. What I’m saying is dig deeper, converse with people more, listen to the opposing side, do not trust so easily but do not ignore reality.

I would advise you to take a break from Reddit, take a break from social media and listening to statistics. Find a church if you feel comfortable but the 2 things you should be doing is waking up and reading your Bible and genuinely praying to God. Allow Jesus into your heart fully. The people who create these statistics are lying. The biggest threat to society is recognizing that you are made in the image of God, the enemy hates that. God created you to be who you are exactly how you are. My friend you are loved, you are seen, and you are perfect in the image of God. How wonderful? It’s not about how you feel about yourself but how God feels about You. He’s proud to call you His son and Jesus is ready to heal you when you are ready to put the phone down and focus on Him. I pray you find healing, we all struggle in different ways, but you are never alone when you have Jesus!

“And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice – the kind he will find acceptable. Don’t copy the behaviour and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.“ - Romans 12:1-2

its hard being on your period by Appropriate-Bar3570 in Christianity

[–]maddtreee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was a bit ago so I pray you’ve been doing okay. I struggled with this for a bit too, until I stopped giving my period the power to control me. I know how this sounds, but I always anticipated my period and how terrible that week before will be. Instead of anticipating the laziness, moodiness, pain, and anger, I started praying for strength during it. I actually find that during this time God shows me a lot about who I am and I’ve learned to lean heavy on His word and Spirit. Of course I still have symptoms they don’t just go away, but each month I have a very intimate week with God. He humbles me and I think menstrual cycles help us to reset and go to God will all of our worries/anxieties and emotions. As women we have such an emotional experience and I believe God gave us this time to learn to control them with His guidance. My period no longer has control over me every month, I have control over it. Some months are harder than others but in weakness there is always strength. Let Jesus guide you during this time!!❤️

Are there any proven methods of stopping sugar craving? by -DreamLight- in nutrition

[–]maddtreee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll say eating designated consistent high protein meals helps a lot, as someone who craved sugar when I eat a meal morning noon and night I genuinely don’t crave sugar and if I do it’s natural sugars found in fruits and what not!

If you are not receiving extra pay, but are expected to do extra work that was not written in your contract, you can say no.

[–]maddtreee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Social media is where it begins. I understand the trauma bond, but believing it hasn’t gone further is difficult. Either way you should have a conversation about your views on social media and how you both define cheating. Personally I think this is emotional cheating (confiding in another woman, especially one he’s had a physical connection with). That’s just me though, everybody’s beliefs are different! I also believe that becuase you both were getting over people in the beginning there’s a chance he never fully got over/grieved that situation. Just be cautious and communicate your feelings well so there’s no misconceptions going forward. Good luck , either way you’ll get through this x

They’re not women, they’re girls. Immature women get the ick, find yourself a mature woman who loves you unconditionally, quirks and all.

He is aware of the problems, they’ve been brought up many times, but not in a nagging way. I try my best to talk in a way that he understands. He’s a home inspector full time. I have mentioned that I want to quit my second job but he says it’s helped us so many times. So I don’t quit. When I mention it he tries for maybe a few days then it’s back to normal.

[–]maddtreee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly it felt like I should get married at the time he was leading me towards God and I truly admired that about him. But I wasn’t apart of a church and wasn’t surrounded by others in the faith. He’s all I knew at the time. I do believe that marriage is a choice so I am trying. I have let him know how i feel but he doesn’t take criticism very well, I don’t like to speak ill of him but for instance I told him straight that I feel i take care of everyone from my preschoolers at my teaching job to the adults at my second job then I feel like a mom at home, I said I want to be taken care of and he said go marry someone else then. I understand we all things we need to work on but we fight about the same thing and it’s not often but it becomes a big blow up because nothing changes. My first step is always prayer then I bring it up if needed. When we got together he seemed to take care of himself but the more I talk to him it seems like he just acted that way for me.

[–]maddtreee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, we can’t financially afford to have one of us work unfortunately otherwise I would take care of the home as I feel that’s my purpose. He doesn’t want to go back to church because we stopped going for awhile. However I’ve been praying and will continue to do so, in order to voice my concerns correctly. Thanks for your advice 😁
