博客來To those exhausted by the thought... Who perhaps wept in their prayers, not out of reverence... but out of fear and doubt. To those who feared God’s wrath upon them, Even though they never stopped praying, nor did they stop seeking forgiveness. To those to whom OCD whispered: ＂You are a disbeliever... you are a hypocrite... you do not deserve Paradise!＂ And they responded with silent tears and painful confusion. To those who lived in an internal struggle between the love of God and the fear of losing faith. To those who had sincere intentions in their hearts, But obsessive thoughts fought them day and night... I present to you this plan... Know that God does not hold you accountable for obsessive thoughts. And that your thoughts are not you. You do not need ＂perfect faith＂... but rather ＂true peace of mind.＂ This plan is not a defense of religion, But a defense of you... against the obsession that hides behind the veil of religion. From my heart to yours, And from pain I have suffered or treated, I wrote this plan for you with sincerity and compassion. ＂You are not your obsession... you are your pure intention, which God knows.＂
Introduction:Obsessive thoughts about faith and religion are not evidence of weak faith, Nor do they indicate a lack of belief, And they are not a sign of divine abandonment... as your thoughts might suggest to you. Rather, they are a psychological and intellectual disorder, That penetrates the most sacred areas of the soul: your relationship with God. It begins with the question: ＂Am I truly a believer?＂ Then it turns into doubt, then into condemnation, then into an overwhelming internal feeling that you are not okay.
