  • My best friend wishes to grow up and become a monk. He wants to get away from this world and live for Christ. sleepy
  • That's a great way to look at things, but at the same time not everyone is ready to confess their faith. There was this story ( I don't know if I got it off here, but anyway...) Two armed men walked into a church full of people. They said, "anyone …

  • Well, just like PrincessMary said, prayer and fasting are incredible weapons against the devil, and so is hope. All three are vital. At the same time, always keep your thoughts on Christ. Think to yourself, if this is a constant sin, "Would I want t…

  • Neither am I, lol, but my priest loves me like his daughter exactly. lol sleepy
  • Yea, I believe that's what it is. sleepy
  • As long as you don't disrespect your body (which is a loan from God which you should return in top condition) then there's nothing wrong with it. Someone told me before that if they gave you a necklace you would take good care of it because you have…
