I don’t know if this make sense but letting go and giving my problems to God really changed my life.

BEFORE I said I was a christian but I was still trying to handle everything by myself and not getting very far.

Now I include in my life

Daily prayer,

Studying the bible

Being grateful

Being mindful of my thoughts, especially the negative ones!


It makes a huge difference and life is much easier than before.

Now, I still have tough days,

I still cry and sometimes worry,

but then I stop and talk to God honestly about what’s going on in my life and how I feel and I really try to listen and understand.

I remember to be grateful of the Lord and others and to check myself when I start complaining, feeling sorry for myself or blaming others.  

I google bible verses related to how I am feeling and

I talk to loved ones I can trust with my feelings.


I feel like the spiritual battle is an emotional one.

2 Corinthians 10:4 (NIV)

4 The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds.

----------------------------------------------------------------

The strongholds for me are things like negativity, worry, guilt and anxiety to name a few.  But I know that if I keep my mind on the Lord, I can be at peace.

Proverbs 3:5-6(NKJV)

5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart,

And lean not on your own understanding;

6 In all your ways acknowledge Him,

And He shall direct your paths.

----------------------------------------------------------------


How do you keep your mind on God? How have things changed for you since you started?

What do you want to do differently in your spiritual journey?
