Brothers and Sisters, I have found myself in a very dark period and I am struggling to find my way out. I would appreciate your help as I lift this all to the Lord and seek His guidance. The thing is, I have no idea why I am struggling and why God feels so distant. There have been no significant negative life events or issues, however I feel an anxiety and overwhelming sadness that I just cannot seem to get through, and that makes minor issues seem insurmountable. I find myself struggling to get through the day and cannot seem to find God in prayer and study. This has been going on for about 3 months and is getting worse. I have a MA in Christian Counseling and I know the things I would tell my clients but none of it seems to help me get a handle on it. I think only the collective prayers of God’s people will help now. Thank you.
June 9, 2025 at 10:53 amDearest Eddy, Thank you for reaching out. Isaiah 41:10 When you feel fear, panic or anxiety creeping in, He invites you to sit at HIS feet, like Mary did. Do remember His words. Let His love silence the fears in your mind. 🙏🏻 My kind Father, I lift up Eddie to you. You see his fears, panic, and anxiety he is experiencing right now. Hold your grace over Eddie. Calming the storm within his heart. Remind him of your promises, and surround him with your peace, for he is never alone. You are working all things together for his good. Romans 8:28 May your peace that surpasses ALL understanding guide his heart and mind in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:7 The storms of life will come, but you do not have to face them alone. Jesus grace is your shelter. His love is your anchor, and His presence is your peace. Whenever fear, panic, anxiety, rises remember, Jesus is with you forever! Eddie feelings you can’t trust. But you can trust HIS unchanging love. Sending much love and prayers. 🙏🏻♥️🕊️

June 9, 2025 at 8:08 pmLord, we lift up Eddy to you. You love him far beyond what he can perceive right now. Father, I pray for the gift of an illuminated mind for him. Lord, we pray for healing of any physical or neurological condition that would be negatively affecting his emotional state. But Lord, he needs a spiritual breakthrough, and so we thank you in advance that you’re gonna reveal your great love for him in a fresh way. Lord ,encourage this brother. give him help. Father thank you Lord that you love Eddy so much! Be glorified in every season of his life. For Jesus sake, amen.
June 9, 2025 at 11:12 pmThe enemy loves to trick us with “distance from God” to immobilize us, but God we thank you that You have never left us! You are with us wherever we go, and we cannot be separated from You! We bring ourselves back into alignment by taking time out of our day to spend time with you, minister to you, and praise your name. We spend this time asking for nothing, but focusing only on seeking you and drawing near to your presence. God you know our every need and every desire, but let YOU be the #1 desire of our hearts. We cast out the spiritual warfare that tries to make us feel far from you OUT in the name of Jesus, and we consciously align ourselves with You. Jesus please give us the mind of Christ and give us a heart after Your own. We love and praise your name, Jesus! We lift up Eddy to you, knowing that you are mighty to save us and an ever present comforter to us. Thank you Jesus!

June 10, 2025 at 7:14 amGood morning Dear Eddy, I like to give you encouragement. I know you said, that you “feel” like God is a distant observer. But that is a lie from the adversary! From the moment that HE breathed life into you, HE made a promise, a promise that you would never have to face this world alone. You see challenges are hindrances. But see them as opportunities, for growth. Our Heavenly Father, demonstrates HIS love and power when we go through struggles, and trials. Think of them, as divine appointments rather than stumbling blocks. Yes, your trials are hard, but they are not too hard for GOD! I hope you receive this encouragement with love. 🙏🏻♥️🕊️
June 10, 2025 at 12:44 pmI say this with a humility, not trying to act like I’ve got it all together and have all the answers, because I don’t. I’ve found over my 70 plus years, that when I find myself in the midst of a dry wilderness place, “and they will come.” I’ll try to embrace it instead of resisting, because I’ve found in my own limited experience, it’s generally a Divine test designed, for season of personal spiritual growth, in which the LORD is in the process of elevating me to a higher level of service. Also it’s a test of faith that screams loudly, “Will I trust even when I don’t understand?”✨✨✨ Praying if this resonates with you brother Eddi. That you ponder and give careful consideration to this question yourself. Because it very well could be that how you answer this question will directly affect whether or not your ready (having passed the test) to move to a higher level of responsibility, and a stronger anointing on you and your ministry or calling…
God dose nothing without a purpose in mind.
Praying for you in JESUS’ ✝ Name.
Amen! 💞June 10, 2025 at 12:47 pmMy apologies for miss spelling your name “Eddy.”💞
