so here is the issue I'm wrestleing with

[Friartuck]

I'm a christian phew said it..but...

I find myself unable to stop "the thoughts" the ones that run aorund my head untill I'm really exhausted by it. I get worn down by them and then in one of my more lucid moments i wrote this in my diary...

It's hard to put my trust in the faithful promises of God when the disease naturally disables you from thinking and believing that way.

So the question is Is the devil a nasty  F**ing  B****d so that if he can not get you to fall into the ways of sin of your own volition he gets to your faith in God by compromising your brain?

Where sin is actually no big deal because you do not feel accountable anymore anyway because you feel depressed...

So my big question will be so God that is just typical how do I get out of this one then???? "£$ arrrgh!!!!

Friar doubting Tuck!!!

I'm not a believer myself, but I've heard the faithful say that doubt is for a reason, and that reason is to allow room for faith to grow. I hope your faith continues to help you through the hard times.

I have no doubts because I'm an atheist.
