Journal Entry for October 13, 2008 Mood
Monday, October 13, 2008

Oct 13, This program for stability is working extreemly well .Can it really be this simple ,I see people on the boards ,there so very depressed and there on medication for it .I feel so sad because I cant help them .If a person has a will to survive they can be helped .If a person has no will to survive how is it posssble to to give them one.I know they need a religious faith so that the Holy spirit can touch them lead them and do its work .but most of these people have no faith in something they have no scientific proof of.They want something they can see and touch and hear .they can t just take a walk of faith ,they are the ones that CANT.Then theres the one who may be can, but DONT WANT TO .If they admit to the power of the Holy Spirit ,in order to recieve it life tranforming power they need very often to make a life style change to bring there life in line with God and they just DONT WANT TO.and so I get on the boards and I watch the Cants and Dont WANT TOs they rant and complain how bad there bipolar is how depressed and hopeless there lives are.It saddens my heart Ill try from time to time to reach them but doing it everday has become too much negitivity for me to work through.One of the concepts of my program is (9) avoid negitivity.

    I don't know how sick you've ever been with bp, but from many people's perspective...just having "faith in the Holy Spirit" isn't going to cut it.

    Most ministers will tell you the same.

    I am a spiritual person, but I believe it's possible to be well without great faith. Even if you have great faith, it still takes meds, lifestyle changes and a lot of hard work.

    I'm sorry, but your journal has really offended me. You sound like you can solve everyone's troubles by finding God and just listening to you.

    I am sorry for the above comment. You as we all do, have every right to express your sentiments in "YOUR" journal.

    Please forgive my presumption.
