I am a high-school junior and am afraid of failing everything I attempt, such as failing to discover my social niche in society, failing to develop meaningful relationships with others, failing academics and getting accepted into college, failing to achieve happiness etc. I try not to let my fear of failing everything prevent me from participating in life’s opportunities, yet when I do participate, I feel apprehensive and uneasy and unhappy. I don’t know what I want and, therefore, don’t know what to do and how to accomplish this ‘happiness’ that I so actively seek. (I can’t achieve such happiness because I don’t know what happiness really is. What am I seeking? What am I afraid of?) I want to evade this state of apprehension and fear of failing everything. I just don’t know how to go about doing this.

The New World Order is already slowly in effect, There are so many subtle changes in our society that the general public don’t see. The stock market is purposly going to be crashed, and never recovered. I have heard of the occult, illuminati, and free masons and never beleived it. But slowly, It came to my attention that all of these secret organizations are real. I know you’re probably like,” what is this guy talking about? Or here is another conspiracist.” But seriously, a really bad disaster is going to happen. I’m just trying to reace as many people as possible. And no, this is not a scam. Seriously, what are your thoughts on these organizations and what is to come?

Back in April I met a couple people on campus who were evangelizing to people and I was one of the people that they sat down with and started to talk to me about the gospel. I was a little skeptical at first because I did and still believe that there is a higher power, a god as you may call him, and that no matter the religion we are affiliated with, we can come together as a society when we need to and overcome and challenge that comes our way. I eventually became a christian because they gave me more insight about Jesus and god and how they can be apart of their lives. Ever since then I’ve been reading bible and learning about God and how if w you follow god’s word, you will ascend into the kingdom and gain eternal life. The only problem with that is one question? When will god answer my prayers. Although I’ve made a whole bunch of new friends since then, I’m still trapped in this state of loneliness and depression. The only people I can rely on are musicians in bands. The stuff that I listen to is basically heavy metal like Disturbed, Machine Head, Metallica, Trivium, and so on. These bands have influenced me to play guitar and to start writing poetry/song structure ideas. When this comes across people, they immediately deem me insane or violent while there are Other songs that are equally or more aggressive than what I’ve ever wrote. I’ve written probably over 50 ideas and trying to put music to it, but I’m being put down by people who think I’m not supposed to write anything cause it’s too violent and what not. I can’t even remember scriptures, I only remember lyrics from heavy metal songs such as “give your soul to me, for eternity” and “The Halo over our demise, following a god so blind.” I need a little more insight on this issue cause I truly don’t understand Gods ways, or if i ever wanted to.

I feel that God is not walking beside me, but pushing me away like I’m a twisted monster. I’m now questioning my faith. Is god just waiting to show himself to me in the future, or will I be turned away from him just like everyone else in my life. I thought that the bible would help me, give me insight, give me meaningful words to dwell upon, but nothing. I can’t even remember scriptures, I only remember lyrics from heavy metal songs such as “give your soul to me, for eternity” and “The Halo over our demise, following a god so blind.” I need a little more insight on this issue cause I truly don’t understand Gods ways, or if i ever wanted to.
