which god you praying to?
When problems can't be solved it's cause there's an obstacle, most often within one self.
That's what I have been told anyways.
~Blessed Be~
When people say they've found God they don't mean it as if, God has spoken to them, but merely that they've found a pathw hich suits them in life.
That was very well said Jacq.
if you BELIEVE ...that you are actualy praying to a higher power that is actualy listening ...your thought processes alter. your brain wave patterns become unique from other patterns.
something is realy happening that is different from the norm.
it is a very unique way for your brain and your mind to operate.
if you practise ...and persevere, you will find answers. you will will discover that your mind starts answering in ways it wouldn't do normaly. keep prayig mate.
prayer is an essential part of my life belive it or not.
Well i am helping myself but we all need help aswell.. all im asking for is a little guidence and he hasnt shown me that
Remember the quote
God helps those who help themselves?
It means you must try to find a soloution and if you fail, he will help. Im sure God is there in the background helping us a little, but wanting us to do things for ourselves so we can become stronger. He is testing our faith to see if we truly believe. Do not lose faith and God shall help, but lose faith and all will be lost.
You beat me to it Mist.
I can't tell you what God is, but a thing which helps me hold perspective is not humanising God. When doing that you expect him/her/it to react like a human being, when that isn't the case.
I'm not talking about faith, but about dependance.
Ive found that when im going through a really bad patch, like i went through this summer when my dad died, i used to feel that God was never ever there to help me out. but looking back now, i can see that he was there for me, cos he provided me with good mates to help me through, and come out the side, a stronger person, knowing who my good mate are. Its also helped to reinforce my dream of being a nurse, cos then i can give people the same kinda in depth care my dad was given...
Dont give up on God just cos of one bad patch where u cant see ur way through, Your just in a foggy patch n ur fog lights arent working too well right now...
I've been reading foot prints over and over to myself all night.. i make sence of it but still i feel alone..
Thank you so much for the advice.. thank you everyone.
i was once in solitary confinment in a hell hole in strangeways prison for refusing labour ...the outside world were barred from visiting me. i was seriously alone in my heart and mind ...and physicaly from any human contact ...nothing. a matress from midnight to 5am and a bucket to piss in.
i already knew about meditation and prayer. every offer they gave me for three months i refused to accept. THEY ...bowed down to my my terms in the end ...prayer can make you a very strong person.
trouble with prayer ...is how much do you mean it and how much is nothing more than you want for your self?
for self hardly works.
and what you pray for you might get ...but it might not be what you realy need!
you may ask for what you want but ...get what you need.
how do you descern how your prayers have been answered?
Rolly..
all i ever aswk god for is forgiveness and strengh. strengh to get through my pain and hardship. yes it may not be as hard as some have had but to me its killing me. i ask god for the stregnh to get though it..yet i dont see no reply..
i feel like a lost little sheep.
Go and talk to your vicar or priest...as a religious guy - brought up with religion I'm sure there must be one in the church you go to / went to!
its complicated.... im going to bed!
Well that explains it
Really, how could a religion set up purely to suit one person possibly be right?
sorry- i just had to say that... *runs away*
I'm sorry, but parading down the street wearing a stupid bowler hat and an orange sash across your fat gut, banging a drum and singing songs about how many Catholics your great grandparents murdered in cold blood is just incitement.
And some of the Young Christians in my area are the biggest bunch of hyprocritcal morns you'll ever meet.
No, I have no opinion on God, or religion in general. I just fancied a rant :mad:
i got it on Dvd
americanbeauty thanks for your reply.. and what everything everyone has said as been great.. thanks
