I am about to face some of the most difficult days since the adversity thrust upon me in the form of directed energy weapons torture and coordinated psychological attacks began. I face a foe, that, on my own I cannot fight. As I navigate through the various adversities caused by covert Federal agencies , and face the prospect of losing income, home, and financial stability, some may wonder how I am able to cope; especially after eleven years of continuous psychological and physical attacks! Quite well, thank you!
Even now, as I face the myriad of challenges imposed upon me, I am calm. Not just outwardly, but with an inner calm that allows me to face adversity without lost temper, bitterness, rage or despair. I can only attribute this extraordinary calm under pressure to my Heavenly Father, Jehovah God.
You may ask, ‘How does God comfort us and give us the courage to bear our pain?’ He does so mainly through his Word, the Bible, and through the gift of prayer. Paul tells us that God lovingly gives us His Word so that “through the comfort from the Scriptures we might have hope.” Additionally, through heartfelt prayers, we can come to experience “the peace of God that excels all thought.”—Romans 15:4; Philippians 4:7.
The Bible writer David said that during his time of great anxiety and isolation, consolations from the scriptures “fondled his soul.” Just as a mother’s touch and soothing words can calm a crying child, the scriptures can calm our troubled heart. I can personally attest to the consoling power of the scriptures! Reading the Bible is a wonderful way to calm anxiety and focus on healthy thoughts. In addition, we can receive “the peace of God,” through prayer, a calmness that protects the mind and heart. This “peace” is a tranquility from God that enables us to continue to think and act wisely, without being overwhelmed by troubling thoughts. It also protects our physical health from the ravages of distress. It “excels all thought” in that we are helped to cope with any distress, no matter how troubling. From personal experience, I say: That peace is real! It allows me to endure present woes with a calmness that puzzles my persecutors.
These gifts that God gives has enabled me to bear up, not matter what the challenge! Paul says that God “comforts us in all our tribulation.” (2 Corinthians 1:4) No matter what pressure, anguish, or suffering we may experience, God can give us the necessary courage and strength to bear up. Is that not reassuring? So with all I endure, the very best part of my story is meeting these hardships successfully in the comfort and courage that only Jehovah God can provide.
Addendum: The Need for Calmness and Good Manners
It appears that a primary objective of the adversity thrust upon me is to force me to abandon civility, control, and good manners. Therefore, maintaining calmness and composure is not merely desirable, it is critical to my survival. A help in this regard is maintaining a positive view of people. I look for the good even in those employed in the harassment against me, and treat all with good manners. By dignifying others, I dignify myself. Doing so neutralizes much of the psychological warfare employed against me. It is the most emotionally healthy way of coping with the ill treatment of others. Responding to ridicule and humiliation with respect is also a powerful way to teach by example.
