Have we forgotten?
Ever been tempted to the point of dizziness, seeing spots, collapse? Ever heard voices in your head, whispering, "No one loves you..." Ever found it distracting or difficult to worship, pray, read the Scriptures? Ever feel frightened for no reason, or scared and nervous while witnessing? Ever wonder if there's more to the picture when depression hits? Ever feel all alone, forsaken, rejected, down with a voice coughing, "You have no friends." Ever feel like your life is falling apart and your faith is paper-thin? Ever feel so caught up in sin that you cannot escape? Ever had feelings that don't belong to you?
Have we forgotten the name of Satan?

i can totally ubnderstand what your saying. it seems that each day of my life, at some point i just think about how much my life seems to suck. i always hear that voice that says you have no friends, your all alone, nobody likes you. and it just makes you fall into depression. And everyday at church i try to get into worship, and the study, but it just seems impossible. i go to church and pretend to be this amazing christian, when really my relationship with god is deminishing, and it seems like no return. i know that if your life seems to be falling apart and temptation is getting strong, that means satan is really trying to hurt you becasue of your faith, but how can you stay strong with God, if all this crap is happening to you? how do you become happy with your life?
the battle never ends. we just have to keep fighting.
