I have been stable for five days until yesterday. I asked a Monk visiting our parish what order he was from and after he answered he asked “why don’t you join us” And followed it with"what are you doing with uour life". I stammered for a few minutes and when I told him I wasn’t a catholic yet he said he was sorry for shocking me.

I’ve been really unstable since then. I resented having such a huge thing being asked of me straight out of nowhere. Since that time I’ve been struggling with all the horrible emotions and feelings of anger, pride, resentment and wrath. I keep thinking that this is somehow God’s fault that I fell into sin, but I know that isn’t true. I just can’t keep a handle on myself mentally and its unbearable because it seems like when this does happen there is nothing I can do to get out of it.

I really think a devil is attacking me right now. I know I have mental illness but I can just sense the presence of another intelligence trying to get me wound up. I am trying to have contrition for my pride, self pity and desire to keep records of imagined ways God has hurt me. It’s this really dark kind of victimization that is really hard to repent of.
 
Saint Michael, the archangel, defend us in battle, be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil, may God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do you, O’ Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God thrust into Hell Satan and all the other evil spirits who prowl about the world for the ruin of souls.

Amen.
 
Lord, please send powerful angels to guard and guide Bdonoho through every difficulty in life. Stave off all devilish or worldly temptations from this soul. Shine your divine light through Bdonoho always, and instill in this soul many graces for faith, hope, love, joy, prudence, and temperance. Accept Bdonoho’s every suffering or joy in union with your holy Passion, and lead Bdonoho ever toward the eternal garden of joy and the eternal fountain of relief. Have mercy, Lord. Our Lady, angels, and saints, pray with us. Amen.
 
Our father who art in heaven
Hallowed be thy name
Thy Kingdom come
Thy Will be done
On Earth as it is in Heaven
Give us this day
Our Daily bread
And forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those
Who Trespass against us
Lead us not into Temptation
But deliver us from evil
Amen
 
I am starting to think I have a demon of wrath tornenting me right now, trying to get me to recount all these times God has done something that seemed unjust and to blaspheme him in anger. I have already succumbed to this temptation and Im trying to pull myself out. What should I do?
 
Dear Bdonoho,

Greetings in our Lord Jesus.

I believe that if you just simply tell to God whatever you think and ask His guidance, everything will work out eventually. Why don’t we try?

Nothing in this world could be so precious or dangerous enough to drag us away from trying to speak to God.

Let us tell our God everything that we are going through now.

I hope and believe you can do this at some point of time.

Take care and please post us on the good results so that we all can be thankful.

Thank you so much for your help. I talked to God instead of just crying out at Him and immediately the stuff I was blaming God for dissipated and I realized what my sin was that caused all this. Thank you so much. You were right about this.
 
Peace with you, did you ever think of going to a Catholic Councillor just to get you some answers for these questions that you have posted, and why you get so upset he might able to throw some light on the matter for you, which would make it easier on you next time when you are troubled.

Ring the Parish they might know of someone good and Catholic. Dr. Ray is on EWTN but I don’t know where he lives, must be others equally as good.

God Bless. Walk with the Lorrd

I actually just got back from seeing one. It really has helped me a lot, and my five days of stability was due to taking thier advice. Thank you for your concern and your advice. I really appreciate it.

Amen

Eternal God , in whom mercy is endless,
and the treasury of compassion inexhastible ,
look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us ,
that in difficult moments we might not despair
nor become despondent , but with great confidence ,
submit ourselves to Your Holy Will ,
which is love and mercy itself . Amen

Memorare (Prayer to Our Lady)
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession, was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in your mercy, hear and answer me. Amen

God loves you. God made you. Turn your negativity into positivity. There is so much goodness in the world. We just have to find it. Make it your own. With God’s help. You have to believe that and believe in yourself. Put worldly thoughts away. Godly thoughts first. I can’t explain too well what I am trying to say. I only know that you have potential to do great things. I am praying for you. God bless.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
 
I’m praying for you, bdonoho. Remember that God’s mercy is greater than any sin you could ever commit. I’m glad you are speaking with someone who can help you navigate this difficult time. You have so many worries and cares…just lay them all at the feet of Mary before you go to bed tonight and ask her to help you with your spiritual life. She will bring you to Jesus. God bless.

and do thou,
O Prince of the heavenly hosts,
by the power of God,
thrust into hell Satan,
and all the evil spirits,
who prowl about the world
seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

Here is a prayer to get rid of evil thoughts:

My Lord and God, be not far from me; my God, hasten to help me, for a throng of thoughts have risen up against me and great fears plague my soul. How shall I ever pass though them unhurt? How shall I ever break their power over me?

Jesus:

I will go before you and will humble the great ones of the earth. I will open prison doors for you and to you I will reveal hidden secrets.

Disciple:

Lord, do as You say, and let all evil thoughts flee before Your face. My fond hope and only consolation is to make You my refuge in every affliction, to confide in You, to call upon You from the depths of my heart, and patiently await Your comforting gift.

Say this prayer as often as you must, and you will start to feel better, i.e., you’ll get more control of your thoughts. God bless you!
