@alia Sometimes it is hard to find the right words to write down, so I think, “But I’m a writer.” Yeah, well that doesn’t mean we always know how to express what we want to say (just maybe we’re better at it. Poor non-writers. ;P )

July 25, 2018 at 8:51 pm #75552Hey sorry for not seeing this until now but I’m praying for you and your friend’s family.
My situation is not the same as yours but I recently had a major depressive episode myself so I kind of know how you feel. I have been feeling as though I am unable to handle anything; my work, my writing, my relationships with other people. I just wanted to withdraw from it all.
I’ve always had to deal with loneliness because of this constant tug-of-war within me between my desire for intimacy and my extreme introversion. As such there are very few people in my life whom I can regard as true friends. So I know how easy it is to be swayed by the lies in our heads and let the bitterness build up in our hearts.
But God is with us even during these spiritual and emotional battles. Because we are living in this fallen world, whatever joy and peace we can have will be hard to come by and may still be tinged with sorrow and anxiety. But I want you to know that you are not alone. You are not the only one groaning for the day every tear is wiped away.
It’s good that you have reached out. Let’s all support one another in this community. 🙂
August 8, 2018 at 5:28 pm #76029Guys, Â a friend of mine is going through something really serious. She won’t listen when I try to tell her that her thoughts are from the Devil. She doesn’t think she is doing or thinking anything wrong. Please pray that God will give her wisdom and discernment. Pray that God will make it known to her that she is not alone. Thank you.

Kapeefer til we're old and greyAugust 8, 2018 at 5:35 pm #76031@alia I will definitely be praying for her. That sounds very serious.
By the way, I’ve been meaning to get on here for a while and make a prayer request. Australia has been going through a drought and its starting to get quite serious for the farmers, who’ve had to start selling off their stock. Please, please pray that God will send us a lot of good rain, which will help when summer comes. Thanks 🙂 You guys are the best.

August 8, 2018 at 7:14 pm #76032@alia I’m sorry! That’s really hard. I’ll pray for you and her.
@seekjustice Oh, that’s not good. California had a very bad draught a couple of years ago, and they were having the same problem. (A few other states too, but CA was the worst.) And the government was really stupid about it and decided to give the relief water to the endangered fish instead of the farmers…So yeah, anyway, I definitely understand the problem there, since if the farmers can’t grow the crops/meat the people can’t eat. I’ll be praying.

Thank you so much!
On a brighter note, I just got a letter in the mail telling me that I’d won first place in a competition!!! As you can imagine, I’m super happy about that 😀

August 9, 2018 at 4:57 pm #76042It was called the Imagination Creation Young Writers Award and apparently there were just a bit less than 500 entries. So by no means was it a huge competition, but it wasn’t measly either. I just wanted to tell you because I honestly don’t think I would ever have got to this point without all the time and effort you amazing people have put into my work 🙂 thank you so much for that!
I celebrated last night by holding a dramatized reading of some terrible old writing of mine. 😛
