The Prayer Thread

I pray that praying would actually do something.

I take it as a test.

It most certainly is. As one approaches enlightenment, the more darkness will try to sway them.

Going to take a serious tone for a moment here:

I used to pray/ meditate daily. Tried my best to live on the straight and narrow. It used to seem to work.

Not sure what changed, but the crapstorm never stops and there is no reprieve. I feel my spirit guides have punched the clock for good.

I'm sorry this has happened to you brother. Peace and joy upon you in the Name of the Lord Jesus. I plead the blood over you and the victory of his Resurrection over you! In Jesus Name Amen!

You get it.

I've noticed the more righteous I try to be, the harder life gets.

I take it as a test.

I'm sure there is a healthy and happy medium there, my friend. The people who know you, know you are an upstanding person.

There is for sure.

I also have the outlook that it could always be worse.

I try and tell that to everyone who comes to me with stress.
It's a wild realisation. Even if we are the centre of our own little universe...

It could always be worse.


You too are a gentleman and a scholar.
I appreciate your presence more than you realise, my friend.

That has, in a way, become my mantra when people focus on the minutia and lose sight of the bigger picture. Are you healthy? Do you have your friends and family? Then life is not that bad. Truly. Everything else is transient.

Thank you for your kind words. Much appreciated.

You can buy torches and lamps from shops these days.

Hopefully they help with your enlightenment.

Yeah, the poster I am replying to is one of the more solid members on this site.

He has his head screwed on properly.

Why? I was being serious. He's a good dude.

Or did you mean my American euphemism? It means they are not mentally unstable, roughly.

How did you find out my real identity?

Did those midgets tell you?
