@heartathome that's right! He recorded it with Cliff Richard who we all know is a Christian. I love this song, thanks for sharing it xoxo

@ENKELI i hear you, such anguish isn't but simply let it go... that is how Jesus taught me to deal with unmanageable soul pain as well. Simply let our life in that anguish slip, d not hold back let it ALL come out and hang to Jesus until bad life is gone for He is Right Underneath it all awaiting you your good life.

So good to hear you are also hanging to Jesus, for i know He will catch you falling through as well. Rev 14:12-13

As much love as i can muster your way fighting letting go so on the bottom you can let satan hurting you behind as Jesus lifts you back out again. Just as written, so that where your head has been chopped off so to speak He will grant you Eternal Being in and with Him. Pain start ebbing away then i know to be true....

Praying you hold onto our Beautiful Saviour

@ENKELI Hearing you about the problems of "credentialism" in our modern word. Too many boxes to tick, and new RTOs popping up interested in the funding, to push more courses. Yes, maybe not enough respect for people with lots of work experience. I actually held real learning and education in high esteem, including learning on the job, which I did a lot. Persevere, dont let me put you off getting your certificate. You also made me smile with your image of talking to the computer. Metoo!.

Sadly I also have been thinking a lot that I am ready to go home.

Though little things keep happening which are encouraging, however I feel I am too damaged, agitated, and overwhelmed by dread and fear. Is it because I am weak and have

@Realness @tyme gentle hugs

@heartathome Van Morrison has a thoughtful reflective energy for a rocknroller that I really appreciate. Thanks.

@DownMoreThanUp Supertramp, brings back memories.

I know what it is like to be in overwhelm and to keep functioning on lots of levels, like cars etc etc. We are all human.

Hope you enjoy cooking up the soup and that your family appreciates it. Good luck with the visit.

I made spinach leaves and salad with chicken and aioli tonight.

Praying for us all. Worried about the state of the nation and the world.

Someone said they love me today, after I spent time doing music with them (no payment). I said as long as it is right and proper Christian agape love.

Still, I feel so unworthy and full of doubt.

Trying. Doing. Being. Praying.

In Conversations with God.

@DownMoreThanUp thanks my brother. Jesus has given me so much in the way of release from the spirit of rejection this year, it's slowly slowly and I know that while I hold fast to my Saviour I will be okay.

Hugs and blessings

@ENKELI Absolutely! For even if you failed Jesus wont. He court me falling through the net quiet a few times in my life. Inner anguish does that.

Good to hear you are full of courage. Praying for you!

@Appleblossom several years back I spent 2 weeks in a mental health facility [Moderator edit].

I had serotonin syndrome and was in and out of consciousness for a few days but one time when I was awake I saw my mum sitting beside my bed and crying. The last time I'd seen her cry was when I was about 15 so it was a wake up call for me. And one of the nurses asking me how I thought mum would feel had I been successful really made me sit up and realise that I really couldn't do it again while she was still alive.
After she's gone though, some days I don't know.

After I became born again I was of the expectation that life was going to be amazing, that through Christ I could do anything. And for the first few months it was true. I felt renewed, I spent every Tuesday night with my church worship team working the sound desk, Wednesdays I'd be there for the kids after school club and Sunday of course I'd be there for the service and manning the sound desk.

After a couple of years my pastor retired and his daughter started up a new church elsewhere that was mainly Filipino and I didn't feel welcome there. I then started going to another church near to where I lived with ex friend and it never felt right. I loved the pastor but the music team just wasn't what I was used to (they were terrible!) and I was never welcomed like I had been at my previous church.

Most days I pray God will forgive me for not going to church or doing regular Bible study. I pray throughout the day but there really isn't much to keep me going anymore. I have no kids, only 1 friend and no job.

Going home doesn't seem such a bad option, if the Lord would welcome me!

Sorry this is a bit dark, having had a conversation with my sister today brought about the reality that my dad truly is gone and his Satan in a skirt wife who pre deceased him by 12 months screwed him over so badly financially that my siblings and I have lost several hundred thousand dollars in inheritance. I know it's not about the money but I could have had my house repaired and actually been able to get my teeth done, and had a few other medical things taken care of.

Most days I am clinging on to the hem of Jesus' robe, knowing I am loved but sometimes not understanding what that really means.

I'm sorry you're going through so much emotional turmoil and feeling like you wouldn't mine going home @ENKELI Have you heard Desiderata, the song before? Thinking of and praying for you 💜

I also know that you @Appleblossom are struggling at the moment and feeling much the same way. You are also in my thoughts and prayers 💜

Hello @DownMoreThanUp I hope things keep improving for you and you enjoy the visit from your wife and daughter this morning 💜

@Realness @tyme Good morning to you two. I hope today is a day of peace for everyone 💜

@heartathome yes I had the single (back before CDs!!) with Harry Secombe speaking the verses.

I just don't feel like I have a place in the world. It has been gradually getting worse since I moved back home 3 years ago. Prior to moving home I volunteered for different organisations, was working full time and also co-parenting my God children (I supported them for 10 years) and now I feel as though I have nothing.

Life certainly did a 360 and some days I just don't feel like getting out of bed.

There are people worse off than me though so I need to stop complaining.

I hope your weekend goes well for you, it's lovely weather here today and tomorrow, and Monday is a public holiday.

@DownMoreThanUp I think you posted this song once before and I saved it. It's a beautiful song.

I hope you're going okay this long weekend and are managing with the isolation xo
