I need more patience. I only recently woke up to all the BS and I’m like “why can’t these idiots see what’s right in their face?!” Meanwhile it took me decades… ha

I have the same problem. I woke up during the primaries of the 2016 election. I realized that things weren't what they seemed. No matter what anyone thought of Trump he is rhe reason I opened my eyes.

I am late to the waking up party. It has occurred to me that one of the most dangerous phrases is “everyone knows”. Since “everyone knows” vaccines are safe and effective and “everyone knows” antivaxxers are crazy, we are in this mess. The only thing I know for sure is that I have blindly put my faith in people and institutions that are criminal.

That is why we should all go faithfully to our Father in Heaven. Except that Jesus was crucified, she'd His blood for our sins, was buried, was entombed, after 3 days he rose to sit in Heaven on his Father's right side. It makes things much easier (most of the time, I still have moments) knowing that God knows what is happening. I pray for discernment and ask "what can I do." The one person that I know wants me to succeed has my back. I trust in his word. I have also learned that reading the Bible is a much different experience then listening to a pastor at a pulpit giving his lessons based on his beliefs. I found reading the word of God myself without outside influence I will know based on my personal relationship with God, what needs to be done. God, in my opinion makes everything less terrifying.
