Hello my fellow brothers and sisters I’m going through a period of serious inner turmoil and hopelessness due to understanding life and understating my own self and feelings I need help with overcoming my emotions and own negative thoughts that seem to come unrelenting when I have periods of space and quite to myself.. there are a few things happening in my life that are the cause I’ve noticed fruit being born of the spirit throughout my struggle the last few months but I keep falling and aiming for almost perfection in spirit.. please pray for my will to overcome my mind.
I'm passing through something very similar, but i'm getting better. I was literally forcing myself to pray, to love, to follow God's commands, but deep down I was broken. I surrendered everything to God, my advice is to don't think too much about everything. I'm forcing myself to wash dishes for example, and altought I finished everything, I did it out of anger and obligation. If that's something you are passing through, remember that verse 1 Peter 5:7 Cast all your anxieties on Him, for He cares for you So even though I didn't said exactly, or, couldn't give a good advice, give it all to God, He will hear will, and His help is always near, and it get in perfect timing. I'm struggling with something like that too, but always remember that Jesus loves you

Have you done a light fast? Read His Word on an empty stomach. It's very powerful. The Holy Spirit will comfort you. Also repeat the Lord's prayer until you feel His touch.
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

I understand. And you don't have to be negative 💜 God sees everything you're going through, but just know he is bringing you out a better person, and every struggle you have, makes you more amazing. Negativity is natural for humans, and you have to realize perfection is not possible. But also, just know that any situation can be turned positive. I don't know your situation, but I know that if you're reading this you're still alive, and that itself is a blessing. God is so proud of you, even if it see s like the opposite
