Finding Peace: A Bible Study on Mental Health and SO-OCD
Explore God’s comfort and truth for mental health struggles, focusing on overcoming Sexual Orientation OCD with Scripture and prayer.
📖 Introduction
Mental health challenges can feel isolating, especially when compounded by conditions like Sexual Orientation OCD (SO-OCD), a form of intrusive, unwanted thoughts that cause confusion and distress about sexual orientation. This study aims to bring hope, clarity, and peace through God’s Word.
The Bible acknowledges the weight of anxiety, fear, and confusion, and offers a firm foundation we can stand on amid mental health struggles. SO-OCD is characterized by intrusive doubts and scrupulous fears which can lead to spiritual and emotional weariness. Yet, God’s love and truth are unwavering, even when our minds feel turbulent.
Over the next five days, we will reflect on Scriptures that assure us of God’s presence, promise renewal of our minds, and call us to lean on His strength. Each day offers a devotional to help us understand how to navigate intrusive thoughts with faith, alongside guided reflection and prayer. Remember, struggles with SO-OCD do not define your identity—God’s truth does.
This journey is a reminder that you are not alone, and that God’s grace is enough to carry you through every doubt, fear, and question. As you engage with these passages, may you find peace that calms your mind and hope that anchors your soul.
