I think everyone at some point gets this way. It takes a lot of will to not let satan totally possess our thoughts, and he especially likes to give us ones that try to turn us away from our Holy Father. You will be in my prayers tonight my friend. Always remember that Jesus is with you no matter what you are facing, and satan will try to steer the best, most holiest people off the path to love and salvation. Stay strong, God knows you can, and He loves you!!

Hey I’m sorry to hear about your struggles. I myself ran into some challenges and do have to say suffering really can work towards sanctification. A One thing that really helped me today was praying for others at a cemetery and watching a Memorial service on tv. Just being there and seeing so many people supporting our Vets was so nice, and it helped me to get out of my own head, but also feel a part of the community. I would definitely recommend it.

So I’m having a little bit of a bad night. I’ve felt kind of off all day, but now I’m back to feeling like I’m fighting God’s will for me. Is it somewhat normal to vacillate like this at times?

😣
 
I’ll be praying for you and your healing, DeniseNY, that your situation may improve. The other members here have posted good advice.

One of the prayers that I pray is this: O Jesus, I abandon myself to you. Jesus, you take over.
 
I am praying for you, Denise. May God bless you and Our Lady protect you!
 
One Our Father, five Hail Marys (I am embarrassed to say I am not terribly familiar with Byzantine prayers), one Glory Be, one Fatima Prayer, and one Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel offered.
 
Thank you all so very much. I am just trying to relax. Not sure when I’ll get to sleep tonight.
 
I just said a prayer for you. I too have prayed for something for some years now and have begun to realize that maybe what I want is not good for me. We all carry burdens, but trust that God loves us.
 
I often feel physically the same way in the morning after a previous nights spiritual angst. It’s as though we were in a battle.

Glad you are better. God bless you
 
I’m so sorry to hear that you are struggling with chronic illness Denise. I will keep you in my prayers.🙏
 
God be with you Denise.
Peace and warm regards.
I can relate; but I certainly do not know how you feel.
And while you know, Christ Jesus, suffers all unearned suffering with you;
sometimes things reach a pinnacle of anguish; that is is difficult to let that
consolation help strengthen you.
Yes, I have been there from time to time. I have found it easier to bear;
through concentrating that all unearned suffer; literally is His. And it is a gift;
that He shares it with us. Of course, this does not mean stoicism, n’est pas?
~
I never want to go back; taking forever to fall asleep in anguish;
rocking myself to sleep; asking over and over, Jesus help me.
~
So I’ve learned more and more to be proactive in relying on His Strength;
to live up to His Word; cooperating with His Grace. My thoughts rarely
drift into uncharitable thoughts at all, toward myself or anyone.
Presumptive thoughts have all but burned away (although, when I realize;
at a later time I fell short; I rely on Reconciliation, such a wonderful gift of His Mercy.
And I concentrate; on how my thoughts, prayers, words, and actions can be used to help others; asking Him for guidance. And yes, I do have a long way to go;
especially, though with charitable intent, when sharing ideas I get impetuous
loosing prudence to a degree. This is usually because of the current climate
in the world; how deadly solemn it is; and leaning too much on my strength
to get an idea across — that the listener is not ready or receptive to hear.
But I am learning to do what I can, in thought, prayer, word, and deed,
and let go and let God.
have a wonderful evening.

Praying for your healing Denise. As someone who suffers from chronic pain, I know how hard things can become at times.

O Sacred Heart of Jesus,
we place our trust in Thee,
Whatever may befall us Oh Lord,
though dark the hour may be;
In all our woes, in all our joys,
though naught but grief we see,
O Sacred Heart of Jesus,
we place our trust in Thee!
Amen
