I find laughing to help A LOT when I'm stressed out. I'm blessed to have a boyfriend who tries to get things off my mind (usually by using his sense of humor) when I'm having anxiety issues. I keep a few sites in mind, like ICanHazACheeseburger (cute kitty pictures) or FailBlog to help me...

Thank God that he made it back home safely. I'm finding it hard to see my parents and other relatives age in front of my eyes. One of my relatives also has Alzheimer's and its been difficult to see her forget everyone. May the Lord watch over your father :hug: :crossrc:

I hope you were able to make into church today--- I'm sure your husband wouldn't be disappointed if you didn't but would miss your presence. Now that I've been going to Mass with Sean (my boyfriend) for the last few weeks, I'm enjoying my time there instead of worrying about if I'm doing...

Hope you're feeling more up to doing faithful things :hug: My boyfriend's parents gave me a great book that I'm reading now: Mother Angelica's Private and Pithy Lessons from the Scriptures. Mother Angelica is a famous nun who started the EWTN Catholic TV station. What she writes makes the...

Take your time with the engagement. I found that when I entered college, I ended up changing A LOT (God was refining me :) ) and you two may find out that these next couple of years will change the both of you a lot as well. I'm not saying it as a bad thing, but the majority of the couples who...

All the more reason to keep our kids out of public school :)

I avoid Joel's books/videos/teachings because based on what I've read in the Bible, they don't match up. Now what I would recommend you check out is Rick Warren's "A Purpose Driven Life" because it seems like you can't find a purpose in life, which is leading you to give up on God. I've dealt...

Me too Brother--- I pray that the Lord will watch over you, comfort your heart, and that you may only focus on peace. May all evil keep away from you and may you know that God knows of everything that will happen to you and He has a plan. :hug: :crossrc:

I really hope Catholic realize that this Catholic "nun" is not following the teaching of the Church. I am not exercising a CHOICE when there is ONLY ONE ANSWER: Yes, to choosing life, every time, all the time. I wonder if this nun will have to answer for all the lives that were lost because...

As long as you're taking some baby steps--- that is much better than continuously falling back. A sermon online can be very uplifting :) Were you able to go to church today? I almost didn't go to Mass today, but I decided to set a good example for my boyfriend (who's converting) and go with...

Hi Desiree, In our faith, we need to see our faith as something that develops over time--- a WHOLE lifetime actually. It's a good thing that you realize what your sins are and that your heart wants to change-- that's the very first step you need to take. But in order to conquer those sins you...

Welcome Macy-- CF is a pretty cool place to hang out :) Let me know if there's anything I can help you with around the site. God bless :hug: ~Tati

Just an example... Should people have the right to kill innocent human beings just because they haven't been born yet? That's one freedom I'm completely okay with giving up. And I'm thankful the Church teaches that it is wrong as well.

I avoid church when I'm sick as well-- I have worries that I'll end up giving my cold to a sweet old lady (there are many of them at my church) and she'll get really sick. What I do instead is that I watch Mass online-- I find it a blessing to be able to still go through the motions while in my...
