    Healing for dad

    Lord we come before you in prayer. You see our brother Levi. How he always prays for others. How he puts his faith in you. I thank you for Levi and his faith and compassion with others. Now his father is ill and needs healing. He doesn't have the finances to get all the medical care we often...

    Is suicide a sin? This trouble confusing me for a long time.

    Yes. Suicide is a sin. And the wages of sin is death. In the Old Covenant. Praise God we Jesus died for us and our sins. It might be you are without sin, but I need Christ. Because I am a sinner. Once I fell into temptation to take my own life. I took an overdose of pills because the life was...

    Sound advice....

    A woman came to me yesterday. She was dishearted. She had lost her job, and she hadn't been working long enough to get unemployment money. Her husband, she said, was no good, and not nice at all. She needs to take an exam to get qualified as a skilled nurse assistant, but she knows she will...

    Is suicide a sin? This trouble confusing me for a long time.

    We er not to judge, but to feel compassion and to support eachother. I think taking your life is a sin. But we serve a mercyful God. We don't know the full width of His mercy through Christ. And we never know the full story behind a tragic death. If a kid is bullied into desperation and...

    Prayer isnt always relaxing

    I am not sure this is how it should be. I am not saying this is the way to do it. Just stating how I do things. I am sloppy reading the Bible. I am lazy doing charity. I am even skipping church at times. If you feel stressed when praying, seek God and ask Him. Why? Why do I feel this? What do...

    Prayer isnt always relaxing

    Praying is different every time. Sometimes it is emotional and I just weep buckets. Sometimes it is uplifting. And sometimes I feel God points out my weakness and I feel the need to repent and change my life to be closer to Him. Praying for me is never a routine, but a walk in the Holy Spirit...

    Welcome to the "How Much Do You Spend on Christmas" Poll -- For All the High Rollers! :D

    I make most of the presents myself so I am spending less than 50 USD on that. Most of the materials I have bought on sale through the year. My kid gets a present that costs 100 USD roughly. People have enough of stuff anyway. I use more money on Christmas food, drinks and cakes, and invite...

    To be in His presence

    Thank you. It is in a way a type of prayer or meditation for me to write. If someone else gets something from them it is a blessing for me as well.

    To be in His presence

    It is so easy to grieve. Grieve over all the persons or things that is not here! That should be here! The absence is too heave to carry! It is so easy to forget to rejoice. To rejoice over His mercy His grace. The abundance we have in Him. That bliss we have when we enter His presence...

    How to handle negative feedback

    I have spent some time in prayer. And talking to a co-worker. I will meet my boss on Monday, and go through the presentation for next Thursday. And, I have to lean on Christ regarding the meeting, the next presentation and my life's messy situation as well. I have had too much on my plate for...

    How to handle negative feedback

    You are right. I was quite vague. I think it boils down to a frustration from me on knowing this would go wrong and the boss that didn't want to listen to my plea. And the fact that the order on the lecture was easily misinterpreted. And I feel like I am the one that get shovelled all the blame...

    How to handle negative feedback

    I knew it deep down in my gut. I didn't want to do it! The task was unclear and the target group was diverse, to put it mildly. And I was supposed to pull off a 3 hours show. On a fluffy topic. And I failed. Badly. It was constructive, though. I know now better what they want. But still. It...

    Christian therapy for LGBT people

    Here we have had a debate of how some churches have councelling for gays that has difficulties balancing their faith and their sexual preferences. And of course. The churches doing so is labelled as homophobic and the politicians cry out for a legislation against it. They even say it should...

    Silence

    What a wonderful testimony, although it was a bit sad, too. I have these last weeks been through a lot of soulsearching and heartache. It has been extremly hard emotionally, and tears have been near at hand all through this time. Yesterday a sister in Christ reach out to me about her...
