my relationship, faith ,and trust in god this is my anchor

NAS64565

god supporting me  in ways i dont understand, not in the ways i demand, this life is tough and many want only to take advantage of innocent vulnerable  people    god and Jesus gives me  the strength to carry on without them i most certainly would be dead by know,  the word of god gives me a true anchor to direct my life and my feelings to keep me in check and too give me hope in a unkind world that has treated me dreadfully all my life

  • I'm glad that you feel god is good to you. I was brought up believing but sadly, unsupported in adult life I did get abused and taken advantage of in my adult life. I took the teachings at church quite literally and I really think that contributed to me trying to see the good in people that I really wish I hadent  i believed god would keep me safe, i was a good Christian so why wouldnt he right! As I say I learnt the hard way. I was undiagnosed and completly alone with no support family or otherwise. I've been through hell and back. I decided to not go to church anymore. It's my personal choice. I get that its comforting and I wish that I had that like you do. The aspergers side of me took the church teachings the wrong way and as I say I took them very literally.

    I hope that you continue to find comfort and support in your faith as it's a good thing to have
