With all the troubles in this world some need a little help. We were never met to do this life on our own anyways. Sometimes it can just be that you feel stuck and unable to successfully change your feelings, thoughts or behaviors. It is likely that you are being affected by experiences from your past.  Any experiences that continues to exert a negative influence is traumatic.  Not all traumatic events are horrifying or tragic.  Sometimes traumatic experiences are remembered, but often they are repressed or forgotten.  I would like to introduced you to Guy Earle.  Guy Earle is a certified counselor in Rapid Resolution Therapy.

You do those things cause you have the favor of God!  It is favor given to you as a gift which includes rest from Christ.  You don’t have to prove yourself.

I was invited to Florida Music Festival ( http://www.floridamusicfestival.com /)  to be considered for a prize package that includes a main stage performance slot, VIP passes for all members, and a meet-and-greet with 2013 Florida Music Festival keynote speakers. Over a span of more than decade, the Florida Music Festival has helped gain industry exposure for then great unsigned artists like Taylor Swift, Flyleaf, Manchester Orchestra, The Academy Is, and many more. I was honored but at this time I know that my life can not fit what could happen with this.  I don’t want to go alone and leave my family to start tours and travel. I am praying for direction and seeking what God wants me to do. I still am shocked I get these offers.  But if God has this for me then everything will work and will not cause me to sacrifice my family.  So I do what keeps us together.  We do see this at some point in our lives but in Gods timing. Please Be in prayer with us!
