I need to escape my life.?

Question

I need to escape my life. I feel i am going to end up doing myself harm or ending up in jail. I have loving parents and a family of my own and i would hate to cause them any grief. I am not a bad person, i can't fully explain the mess i'm in and i'm not a drug addict. All i want is peace in my life.

I have seriously been thinking of taking up the life of a shaolin monk which appeals to me greatly. At 30 i may be too old to do this but i need this so much. I feel if i can escape my life and dedicate two years of my life into something like this that i would be able to take back control of my life and be the better person i want to be.

This may sound selfish as i have loving parents and my own family but i am in such a mess i can't get out of i am going to end up dead or in jail.

Answer 1

well, because ur soul is weary for all the burden that u carry..

sins...

my suggestion is to go to our Lord Jesus personally... open ur heart to Him through a simple prayer like this...

Lord Jesus, i humble myself to You, and asking for forgivenes for hurting myself...

Lord Jesus, i open my heart to you today, asking to take the throne of my life and lead me from now own...

I accept Your forgiveness and accept the Peace that You offer to me right now...I accept the Eternal Life that You give to me...

Thank you Lord Jesus for entering to my heart today, and I claim for the forgiveness, peace, and Eternal Life you gave me By FAITH....Amen...

after this prayer, find a Bible(New English or New International Version will do) and read the book of John...email me if u still have questions..

I did hear of someone who sold everything they had on eBay (including house, car, and job - don't quite know how that works) and used the money to fly to Australia and start a new life....
