higher power

I have never really been into "organised religion" but I do have spiritual feelings,and believe in a higher power than me . I suppose from anti social tendencies and feeling inadequate from my depression I don't feel comfortable in people situations . I regret letting this happen to me and feel like I brought it on myself and family . The only time i go near a church is for a funeral.
I have come to understand that church is about community not just religion .
 
It is really interesting. I never believed in God, but i also believe what there is something higher than us. When i was joung i were spending a lot of time thinking about special powers like super hero powers :D. But now i became realistic. Ohh it is still funny to remember.
 
I have never been a religious person either. When I lived back home I attended church at least twice a month only to make my mother happy. Now that im away from home and im pretty much alone i find myself praying every night ( something I didnt do before ) and ask God for strength and guidance. I guess it is true what our pastor back home used to say, many people out there only come to God when they need something.
 
Do any of you believe in Reiki? My mother said it helped her to cure her depression. I guess it depends on each one beliefs to make this stuff work

I think it is proven that believing can help to cure problems like depression, for example placebo. Placebo is probably the best medicine if you dont know what it is placebo. :)
 
You are right. It is called the placebo effect. In other words, the cure is inside you, and your belief is the only thing that you need to cure your depression

LMAO!!!!! This was a great answer, thank you for the laughs. I def needed that. :)
 
Indeed believing really helps me to solve health problems. One time mine temperature was 39 celsium and i got to go meet old friends so there was no other way than just recover. So placebo effect really exist.
 
It's proved that believing is the best medicine, so, many people just say there is a God that is watching over them, and just believe. The only thing that is not proved is that there is a God

They can you just about anything when it comes to religion and what it is capable of doing which is why I don't really take any of it seriously. Depression is not a spiritual thing from the way I see it which is why I don't pay attention to anything religious about it.
 
I been thru long times in my life not being so religious. The main problem is simply being attracted to money and other stuff. It's just like most people.

Anyway, I do think a higher power can help. Well, in the case of the Christian faith, though, does one need to give 100 percent? The bible says that is the case.
