A message to those who have a crushed spirit.

Sometimes we feel isolated, unloved or we just feel that no one understands us. I know we've all been there, and until now it's only natural to get sad from time to time because of our imperfection. But it is always comforting to know that God is always near those who have a crushed spirit and he even assures us at Isaiah 41:13 that we shouldn't be afraid at all because he himself is grasping our right hand. I just wanted to post this because I'm sure all of us have noticed that the state of this world is starting to worsen and we can't avoid the hardships that come with it.

@JohnS_2 OK. I was setting up for a point though. If someone had a crushed spirit, I believe it is important that they find within them the strength to move forward. The above passage is of course not a reference to a physical god but to do with the law attuned to the universe. When viewed from an inner perspective as a parable "God" being an energy attuned to the karmac law (lord) is with us. Be positive and believe in the source of strength and divine love... You! If this is taken literally from a man god perspective then this passage “See, I will make you into a threshing sledge,     new and sharp, with many teeth. You will thresh the mountains and crush them,     and reduce the hills to chaff. " Would have us turning into transformer like machines.

I have seen many cases of those in negative situations with crushed spirits putting their faith in a man god out there only to reestablish the old habits over and over repeating then not only the habit but the repentance and belief that "god" will forgive them time and time again which is bunk! They need to understand that this is their life, that their strength, love and divinity is within them along with the negative and that they can tap into this power using their own will and innate loving ability. Of course this is helped by others who love them and support them unconditionally not from a pretend man god out there some where myth, I find that belief dangerous.

Is that better John H S whoever you are;)"
