Lost Faith~~

Losing faith.I have found that my family and myself are suddenly miserable.Long faces,frowns,snapping.I realized this morning it wasn't them just me.I thought i was adjusting ok here in MS.It is a hard realization that you are the main reason that your family is unhappy.I've been walking around mad and very selfish.Before i came here I had found my faith again (well when husband left for war 2yrs ago)I thought i have come along way.Which I had.I just don't understand what has happened and why i've stopped praying,stopped reading scripture.All everything.I wonder if it was my insecurities and fear that allowed a place for negative things(forces)back into my life?I got here and was so happy.Happy to be somewhere new a fresh start.I felt like in a way i was leaving alot of demons behind.With glee.Now its my st of 2nd month here and its literally going to Hell.I do believe things happen for reasons.But i search myself to no end wondering why this happened . Did it just happen out of circumstance??I just don't know .I'm having a hard time with this.Getting my faith back.Why?I know if i continue this way that only really Bad things will happen 1st seperation.I can't do this but i feel helpless at the moment.Call it lack of faith,self pity,scared____???Something has to give.I feel so sad everyday.Worse everyday.

((Sorry about a comment I just made which says: "Meaning??" I was still confused about how to use part of this system. ))

Great... God will guide if you really desire it.
Yea God!

I have had a few of these periods. Two things are always the cure.

1) Go to a good Church. Just Do It, as NIKE says...a good Bible Church. There is a spiritual protection in just doing that...I suspect it is because the little old ladies of such Churches are praying for everyone in the fellowship, and you are included!! Yea! Just by showing up Sunday and whenever and being a part of it, even a limited part.

2) Get grateful about what you DO have that pleases you. Again, just do it. Sit down every day for a while and make a list of at least ten things for which you are grateful to God.
a) Hair on your head
b) A brain that functions,
c) Eyes that see
d) ears that hear,
e) fingers that feel,
f) good fingernails,
g) a daily B.M.
...you get the idea, right? anything--everything that is even slightly positive.

Your mind will soon turn away from the negative, and so will the devils turn away who are smushing you.
