Although Perfect Faith does not exist, at least an imperfect Faith should stop one from crying?

Answer 1

We are all human and crying is good for the soul at times,,,Just do not make{{{{a history or a career of it,,,

Answer 2

While the Faith shows us the good news about God (which is good news for man), it's true that our feelings and emotions often don't seem to respond to those truths as they deserve. It's part of human frailty, I suppose.

Still, there is some connection between the thoughts and beliefs we hold and the feelings and emotions we have. One established type of talk therapy, "cognitive therapy", helps depression patients to benefit from this connection: to recognize and correct erroneously negative thinking habits, and experience an improvement in mood.

Going by your "paxilman" handle, I take it you have experience with depression. If crying remains a frequent occurrence despite the Paxil, do let your MD know. It may be time to change your prescription in some way. "Paxil poop-out" is a known phenomenon.

Take care!

Answer 3

"Although Perfect Faith does not exist" is a false statement.
I have seen it. The ones who have it Impart Great blessings without hesitation, and dispense love, compassion, wisdom and grace in great quantities. Overwhelming quantities. Ask them for it now. They will not deny you. They are Complete.

Answer 4

Psalm 101:6 says - Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.

Read the Psalms, out loud if you can, if you are feeling badly. It will help.

Answer 5

Oh, I don't know. Some of the followers of Jim Jones had perfect faith, as did members at Waco and the followers of Charles Manson. It brought them death and self destruction.

The perfect faith of followers of Jim Baker, Jimmy Swaggart, and numerous other evangelical preachers brought them embarrassment and public humiliation.

Seems to me, to have what you might call "perfect faith" you have to be deaf, dumb, blind and foolish. Without a healthy dose of skepticism, we can't discern truth from fiction, fact from belief. Without doubt, we are left defenseless.

Answer 6

Crying is a natural emotion. Unless one is crying about spiritual things which they can "set right" with God by praying and talking with him, don't be ashamed of crying.Faith has nothing to do, in this instance, with the emotion of crying.

Answer 7

We go through every change or transformation - in a world bound by dimensions of time and space - unconscious of the Supreme Force behind the same.

The knowledge that God exists and is the source of our being as the Supreme Creator, comes with deep introspection and the urge to know the Truth. Even those who do not believe in God have no reason to deny His existence. God exists at a level of reality that is beyond the five senses. We live, act and move in Supreme Force everywhere and all the time, but without actually acknowledging it.

This lack of knowledge, understandably, keeps us beholden to all kinds of delusions about Self as well as the world outside. We tend to follow convention. We imitate what is communicated to us by tradition and retain it by habit. The urge to know God, if any, gets lost in the haze of ritualism and dogmatism and we get trapped by ignorance and superstition.

Knowing God is, therefore, essential. Only then we can know the real Self and understand the world phenomena surrounding us. Spiritual masters have always described God-knowledge as the principal objective of human life.

The basic requirement for knowing God or to acquire God-knowledge is to nurture the urge to know in the seeker’s mind. It may spring from a genuine quest for Truth or some worldly tragedy that he may find it ordinarily difficult to bear, accept or explain. And this thirst for God-knowledge can be quenched only by the benevolence of the one who has already known God and is competent to reveal the Truth.

No amount of reading and reciting of holy scriptures - which are otherwise treasures of knowledge about God - can bestow one automatically with God-knowledge.

A true Master >>
A true Master reveals the presence of God and explains the traits of the Supreme Power. We come to know that all that is visible exists in God, while God, too, exists in every particle of the universe. The difference between the two, however, is that whereas the Creator is eternally present - permanent and imperishable - Creation is subject to transformation and decay.

God-knowledge by itself is, however, not adequate. Real bliss comes only when we apply this God-knowledge to our daily experience, conduct and behaviour. We ‘realise’ the presence of God all the time everywhere so much so that spiritual knowledge manifests itself in every thought and action. We have seen the ocean, known all about its waves and the cooling effect of its water, but to realise all this, we must not only stand on the beach, but also enter the water.

Similarly, God-realisation takes us above worldly duality and keeps us linked with the supreme source of love, peace and bliss. We find in every human being the image of the Creator and realise the fundamental kinship with every fellow-being.

God-realisation is the manifestation of God-knowledge in practical day-to-day life. The mind remains inclined towards Soul and guided by viveka or wisdom that is positive, productive and useful. To maintain this state of mind, to save it from negativity and to infuse spiritual perspective, guidance from spiritual gurus could be greatly beneficial.

MERRY CHRISTMAS ...HERE'S YOU A GIFT MAYBE IT WILL HELP YOUR FAITH .

THE DREAM

I DREAMED ONE NIGHT TWO ANGELS CAME TO MY BED. THEY TOOK ME TO HEAVEN I FELT I HAD NOTHING
TO DREAD. WE STOOD IN FRONT OF A BIG WHITE GATE. IT OPENED SLOWLY AS WE STOOD IN WAIT.
MANY CLOUDS BILLOWED AND SWIRLED ABOUT US AS I STOOD IN AWE OF THE SIGHTS AND SOUNDS THAT
SURROUNDED US. WHAT I SAW WORDS COULD NOT EXPRESS, I WANTED TO STAY AT THIS BEAUTIFUL ADDRESS.
THE ANGELS ALLOWED ME TO LOOK INSIDE, THE BEAUTY THE MAJESTY, MADE ME CRY.
"IT'S TRUE, IT'S ALL TRUE, I KNOW THAT IT'S TRUE" I HEARD MYSELF CRY, AS TEARS RAN STREAMING
FROM MY EYES.
I KNEW WHAT I SAW WAS NOT OF THIS EARTH,THIS CREATION WAS FOR THOSE OF THE NEW BIRTH. THE
POWER, THE BEAUTY, THE SIGHT OF IT ALL WAS SO STRONG,THAT THE ANGELS SHUT THE GATES QUICKLY
TO MY NEW HOME. "IT'S NOT YOUR TIME," I HEARD THEM SAY, " WE JUST WANTED YOU TO SEE WHAT WAS
ON THE WAY," THEY SAID "YOU WILL NOT REMEMBER WHAT YOU HAVE SEEN INSIDE THE GATE, BUT YOU WILL REMEMBER WHERE
YOU HAVE BEEN.YOU MUST TELL OTHERS ABOUT THIS DREAM. THAT GOD'S WORD IS TRUE. IT'S THE REAL THING.
GOD HAS LET YOU SEE WHAT IS YOUR REWARD IF YOU WORSHIP, LOVE HIM, AND KEEP HIS WORD."
WE ALL NEED TO REALIZE THAT IT'S REALLY TRUE. WE NEED TO GET THE LOST ONES IN IF IT'S ALL THAT WE
DO. WE DON'T HAVE MUCH TIME, THE END IS NEAR, AND YES, IF YOU ARE LOST YOU HAVE EVERYTHING TO FEAR.
CALL ON JESUS NOW, SO YOU CAN GO TO AND YOU'LL SEE WHAT I SAW AND YOU'LL BE EXCITED TOO.
I'LL SOON BE IN MY NEW HOME,PASS THE BIG WHITE GATES. DON'T YOU WANT TO GO THERE TOO? I JUST CAN'T
WAIT!!!!


I REALLY DREAMED THIS DREAM JUST AS IT IS WRITTEN. I FEEL IT WAS INSPIRED BY GOD AND HE GUIDED MY
THOUGHTS AND MY HAND IN PUTTING THIS TOGETHER.

I AM GIVING THIS TO YOU BECAUSE I LOVE YOU AND GOD HAS DIRECTED ME TO DO SO.
I HOPE THIS MESSAGE WILL HELP YOU TO MAKE THE BIGGEST DECISION OF YOUR LIFE
TO ACCEPT JESUS AS YOUR PERSONAL SAVIOR AND TO SERVE HIM. SO YOU, ONE DAY
WILL STAND AT THE BIG WHITE GATES AND BE INVITED IN TO STAY, FOR ETERNITY.
