Where are you at right now, spiritually?
Is it a good place, comfortable, or would you like to be in a better place? Do you attend a bible study or Sunday School or small group??
What do you do to become more spiritual in your life?
hugs, train

My spiritual life is always under review - dh and I have finally started to feel settled at our church, not fully 'in' but settled, and we are to start in a small group next Thursday. Hope it works for us, we are so tired of feeling dry!

I have had some extremely serious struggles lately. If I could see in the spiritual realm I am lying wounded.
I have been really struggling emotionally and with my mouth.
With out saying too much lets just say that there are 2 verses that have constantly...well 3, come to mind.
"If a man look at a woman with lust in his eye he has already commited adultery in his heart. "
and
"From the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks. "
Finally...
"Therefore do not grow weary of doing good."
I realize that these are quoted to my memory..but I'm sure you know what I am thinking about.
Just a side note, NO I have not had an affair and NOR would I....but I have been drawn to friend of mine because of the neglect and hurt I have felt at home.I have tried to run... scripture says to flee temptaion.
In all of my marriage I have NEVER struggled with or like this. Heck I never gave another person a second look..and this is certainly NOT physical.
DH knows this, as I have shared the severity with him. We are trying so hard and in fact plan to re-new our vows on our 15th anniversary at my brothers.
Sisters in Christ I covet your prayers...
My language is horrible and my battles with depression are as some have said my emotional rollercoaster and personal hell.
I know what God's word so I have avoided it...as bad as it sounds. Don't want to pray or spend time with God, I am beyond dry I feel dead at times both emotionally and spiritually.
Hoping this trip helps us alot PLEASE PRAY FOR OUR FAMILY...IF YOU REALLY ARE MY FRIENDS/ SISTERS... PLEASE STAND IN THE GAP FOR US!

I am always trying to get a rung higher on my personal best ladder.
I know the steps I need to take...I can see them and now I need to work on taking the steps.I have more or less stopped beating my self up for the human traits I deal with daily.
morelia92, Prayers go out to you to find a personal peace with your situation. I deal with a troubled personal life most of the time and I trust God has reasons for this or has reasons for letting the devil do his work. Whatever the reason I know that I am to work on being a better person and becoming happy and content with my gift of life. This is a very dificult thing to do at times. I will not give up and I pray that you don't either. Love

My spiritual place,
is in btw a rock for He is my Rock and keeps me going, yet it weak for I need to :
get back into the word more on a one to one basis and not do it in a hurry or half do it.
to get into a bible study and really study the word again.
need to focus more on others like I used to instead of being so self assume.
I need to reach out more to others like I used to do, instead of just trying to make it one day at a time like I've been over this last yr with John being so sick.
I know HE knows my heart and He gives me HIS word thru our radio station and thru email christian stuff that I get,but still I need to get on a one to one more time with HIM instead of doing it the way I am.
Thur my weakness I will get stronger as GOD will show me the way.
__________________ He may not be with me on this earth, but he is still with me in spirit. I will cherish the memories, and be thankful he was part of my life
