Am i putting too much pressure on myself? Am i expecting too much from myself? Am i worrying too much?

I'm learning not to run to my frenz when i'm down. Esp. with issues that i know i have to settle it w God first.. It's difficult, coz i'm so used to doing it in the past..

But it's dangerous sometimes i realize.. coz w me pouring out, the motive may be blurred (i may be seeking sympathy or attention instead of advices), the more i'll dwell on it, nothing is solved, & esp if i pour out to the wrong person, the matter'll get worser..

One thing hit me last nite.
My problem is not that i don't trust God or His power.. He has already proven His faithfulness & goodness to me again and again in so many ways before! My problem is that i still don't trust MYSELF enough that i'm able to overcome this old weakness of mine. And this verse came to my mind..

Hebrews 4: 15-16
"For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need."

I want to live out this verse, not just read & understand that it exists.
Stay Pure in heart & Obedient to His Word.
These are the keys to my next breakthrough.
