its not a "crisis," its just...in the flesh,I let people steal my joy. The Lord has been -quite- good to me, even in obvious ways...I'm healthy, now! I'm on good terms with my parents! even my IQ estimate is up!
but I get taunted. I'm apparently considered the "laughing stock" of my small lil hometown. I don't live there now (I do live nearby, lol), but...still...it gets to me. It shouldn't, is the thing. I got saved as an especially wretched, utterly destroyed individual...
and a bit over 6 years later, I've been made increasingly whole, "schizoaffective" and all.
I get ridiculed for saying, a long time ago, that God had healed me. I wasn't even actually saved, then...but, hey; small town area, "laughing stock..." hahaha. blah. At this point, I'd consider it possibly spiritual warfare...I get ridiculed, people yell lies in my general direction, etc. its not -terrible- ... it would be if I was still in poverty, but its not, here...
but it gets rough, at times. oh, and people say "he got too old," whatever that means (I'm 34) and "he got a laser peel," because...well, I've been made healthy enough to have good skin, after years of premature aging, general...blah blah blah.
So...God is Good! And I pray for miraculous deliverance from all this, but I also pray that He will provide what I need to stand up under it, too. Thanks.
