So much more can be said about love...1 John 4:7-11 said:7 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. 8 He who does not love does not know God, for God is love. 9 In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. 10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. 11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
Neither am I (a psychologist), but I agree with you 100%.YmirGF said:Hiya whatever,
I am not a psychologist, but I do have one or two tips for you.
I strongly suspect that your difficulty is closely tied to your perception of self esteem or self worth. Your username is "whatever" and that led me down that path, so I don't intend to be mean or unkind. It just seems obvious.
Depending on the severity of your anger, different approaches may be in order. Since you pinpointed anger, I would advise anger management classes. It's not a big deal, IF you deal with it. If you do this you will find that you are hardly alone wrestling with this kind of challenge.
It is my feeling that if you are happy with yourself, you should be able to perceive the good will of your version of God, and what that God means to you. :hug:

Most likely I had a bad childhood and it took alot for me to get over some of my issues.

Just a thought (and, BTW sorry about mentioning your user name), is it anger that you have, or bitterness ? or can't you tellfromthe heart said:I just have one question that you don't HAVE to answer but who are you angry at...yourself?

Hey, Whatever!whatever said:Havent posted in awhile but here we go.
I have a few emotions that may be keeping me from knowing god. A good example is anger. I go through the motions of going to church but I never feel any closer to god and I can't get rid of my anger. I could use some advise.
