  • [quote author=mabsoota link=topic=10674.msg130474#msg130474 date=1297457049] hey, if u get someone with the 'wrong' colour hair, don't worry, it will eventually go grey or fall out  ;) seriously though, first you should ask God if it's His will for…
  • I enjoyed his thoughts very much, but I agree the music is extremely distracting and not at all relevant. Nonetheless, thank you very much for sharing!
  • Thanks for clearing that up. Don't internalize anger, it will reappear in other ways.. it is like it moves through the body and manifests in "random" places. Just try to dismantle or disarm those angry thoughts, nothing is worth losing your temper,…
  • This thread is really helpful! So actually... thank God you posted it. I have no advice to give since I NEED the advice, just wanted to say thanks for posting. mary
  • John gave some wholesome advice that I myself should take. I think this is common in girls, especially the younger ones.. I know I was like that up until a few years ago except I was usually too awkward and self-conscious to talk to guys lol. Tha…
  • I just have to apologize for my not making much sense in my post. I just read it and even I was confused.. I'm really sleepy lol. I hope you got the gist.
  • Hi Yousie, I appreciate your posts because I can relate to them in some way. I too have this tendency to look quiet blah blah.. but I have outbursts of anger sometimes which really disturbs me and probably those around me. Anyways, I wanted to comm…
  • Thanks for sharing your friend's opinion ebnyasoo3, it brought up some very important points. I would just add that fb can be dangerous especially for younger people who think they are invisible to the world of "bad" people. I say this out of expe…
  • I'll keep this short and sweet since the advice is great-- i'll pray for you :) You actually remind me of myself in a lot of ways. But I just want to say that God doesn't determine whether we deserve this or that because really... none of us "dese…

  • Yousie, I am praying for you. Depression can be very debilitating but God is so good and He knows our hearts and we are always exactly where we need to be in life. God be with you during exams. I can safely say that even if you didn't do your best…
  • [quote author=TITL link=topic=10132.msg123871#msg123871 date=1291765805] I don't have that book. Can you share with us please? [/quote] I agree! Plus I can't read Arabic even if I did have it. You can't say something like that and not share! :)
  • This thread actually made me LOL! No wonder the deacons are always laughing! You guys get to be on the inside and no one ever tells us girls what's so funny >:( haha anyways good stories, made my day :) I wonder if God laughs at these things too.…
  • Nice Cyril97! I love how those things always work out, little miracles in our daily lives :) mary
  • I hope everything went well today geomike! mary
  • Well I haven't read the blog and I don't intend to but maybe he's writing all that and using scripture because he feels unloved or rejected. I mean I might be making a complex situation very simple, but perhaps he's trying to prove that he's not doi…

  • There's always some sort of community service you can involved in. You can go to a soup kitchen, a retirement centre and visit those that have nobody to remember them, ask your church what services they do in the community. I know my church has some…
  • God be with you geomike and solve whatever problem has happened! mary
  • Thank you both for your insight. Cyril, your comment got me thinking and I realized that I have to be in this world and interact and even help others (hopefully) without compromising my beliefs. So I thought I need to be able to be in the world, but…
  • I have watched as well as all the members of my family and its spreading to members of my extended family..that's how lovely it is!
  • I don't see anything wrong with that, we do that all the time in sunday school! Or we extract the main ideas or themes of the stories and put them in a modern context so the kids can relate. But if we want to preserve the story and want the kids to …
  • Hi! Lots of great suggesstions here that I will also look into :) But I thought I'd add.. 1. Maybe your problem isn't really about him, maybe it's about YOU. Someone asked whether you are actually contemplating marriage... are you ready to get mar…
  • This is very exciting! Thank you so much for sharing Father Peter! I'm going to amazon right now!
  • God be with her and her family. Just be there for her, even if she seems annoyed.. just show her love, be simple. Maybe listen to what she has to say (if she feels like talking) and don't come in looking all depressed, smile show her there is hope.…
  • [quote author=teji aflio link=topic=9748.msg119721#msg119721 date=1285211387] woah! i just found a video where HH Pope Shenouda talks about this yesterday! here it is: i hope you understand arabic. he talks specifically about worrying about exams …
  • Hi! Well I think there is a lot of great responses here but I'd like to add since I am pretty much the exact same as you..or was. I'm not a teen anymore either but I was probably the shyest kid EVER. Plus, I turn bright red if I'm at all embarrasse…
  • Thanks a lot everyone, I appreciate your sincere replies and advice. I'll take everything into consideration and talk to both my FOC and doctor. God bless. mary

  • I think God is working, and while you wait you should focus on bettering yourself. It can be a blessing because you will have a stronger relationship with God and that will help you in your future.. God is waiting for you to be ready! :) God bless …
  • I read this and thought, "man, who doesn't suffer from this feeling at some point?" It's horrible but at the same time, a blessing. Abouna Anthony Messieh had referred to this in his own life and actually, it was the reason he became close to God an…
  • Hi! I am going through a similar situation but my acquaintance, let's say Bob, is dealing with different issues. It really freaked me out and concerns me and I feel such a burden to help Bob. I talked to my father of confession and he directed me to…
