worrywoman,
Sifrah has given you good advice.
These thoughts are beyond your understanding because they are rooted in your brain circuits.
You need to turn your attention gently to something else as best you can.
You love our Lord, and He knows this!
Don't waste your time bothering with these silly thoghts, and if you do, so what? In no way are they sinful. Offer your suffering to the Lord for the benefit of your soul and all souls. You could earn a lot of merit from this Cross.

Thank you everyone for your helpful comments {and prayers....

}. I will offer my suffering to the Lord just as Jesus offered His to us. It seems so hard to distract myself when I live alone. I am 32 years old and feel like the odd woman out because I am not married with children (like the majority of people my age). I am very busy with my career and actually do not mind it. I have to stop thinking how others view me, because I love being alone sometimes, But when I want, I can visit with friends and family and their little ones, but then have the freedom to leave when I choose. I need to help myself before raising a child, that's for sure!!! Again, many thanks - and my prayers are with you!

I am so glad I found this blog. I have been having these issues for the last 8 months. It all of sudden began to happen, and it is hard to control. I can be praying, driving, in church, or even sleeping, and they come. I am trying to control it, but it is hard. From all the responses of letting it go, that is harder to do, especially when it affects your life, personality, and now my emotions. I cry a lot because I know I love God, but why? And why now? It is affecting my friendship, because I wonder how many others are going through this. I can't tell anyone because it's embarrassing, it's not christian like, and it's nothing that I asked for. The same way it began, is how I want it to end, but I can't stop it. It's amazing how many others are going through this. I want to be normal again. I want to be that person who smiles, and laughs, and make people laugh like I used to, but how, when there is this hidden, dark side that keeps attacking me. Even in church today, it happened, and I did not go back for the second service. I don't know if it is OCD or not, I just want my normal life back with JESUS.

Dear Insp, I believe that this may have started with a demonic element, as it did with me, like Satan wispering it in your ear so to speak. But now it is probally OCD. It's like your mind won't let go right? Well try to preach and have this affliction!! Not easy!! But there is grace, when Jesus was on the cross they put a crown of thorns on his head, this is like symbolism, this covers your mind!! But you need to try to not stop them I still try to stop them sometimes but it makes it worse. Try to get, TRY to get your mind on something else and keep it locked on it, and if you haven't already get medical help, or stay like this it is your choice.

James that is a very interesting analogy about the crown of thorns, I quite like that.

Religious Jewish men wear kippas (yamakas) and women wear head coverings.

We would also cover our heads before blessing the Shabbat candles.

It would be a neat idea to bless a type of head covering to wear when the thoughts occur.
