    Please pray for me. I live in constant fear.

    I am literally scared of my brother and my sister in law. I am afraid of what they will do to me. They don't' treat me with any respect. I cannot move out because of no transportation and lack of funds. I can't even use my money because they feel that I am a bad shopper. I have no idea what...

    The irony of it all

    We all use the internet and using it right now as I am typing. Ironically, I realize that I tend to waste too much time online. Is there a verse or are there verses in the Bible which talk about wasting one's time and almost being too obsessed about social media? I have noticed this and I...

    From the mouth of babes...

    Are kids really wiser than us adults? I ask this because I was watching a video of a 12 year old girl who made some decent enough points about the wisdom of kids and how we as adults should pay them more attention. Interesting. I wonder why us adults don't give children enough "credit" since...

    Story of an associate pastor

    Lately there has been a young associate pastor who has been exposed for having a physical not just emotional affair with another woman. The other lady pretty much exposed so much about the affair that it makes me wonder. Was she being truthful or was she being spiteful? Despite the fact that...

    Am I missing something?

    I am not too sure how truthful this is, but are those in the system counted on the US census? I have been told that they are not counted. Who thought of this law? Ironically if a person gets in trouble for pot possession or petty theft, then there could be a chance that individual employers...

    Focusing on God

    How do I keep my focus on God? Lately as a Christian, this is quite bothersome. I am not burdened by it, but maybe I should. How do I no longer allow anything that is or may be ungodly like some forms of music or some people to be a distraction? I have prayed about and I wondered if I should...

    My current home situation---it has gotten worse

    How do I deal with a person who lives with me, sleeps in my house, yet literally hates me? I don't know exactly how to pray for that person. Having her as an enemy is heartbreaking and she sees me as a greater enemy. The person in question is my SIL. I have no real conversation with my...

    Okinawan J-rock Artist Gackt

    I personally think that this man is so beautiful, especially way back when. For those who know of him, what do you think of him and his music?

    J-Rock artist Kozi

    I get a David Bowie vibe judging from these two pics. Am I the only one?

    Visual Kei

    I have read up about Visual Kei and while the definition from wiki is straightforward, trying to learn about it seems rather dizzying. The only band from that genre or (I guess genres) whose music I listen to is a band called Malice Mizer. Too bad the band is no more, but they have produced...

    Pray for things to continue to improve

    Please continue to pray for my mother and the rest of the family. It is so good that she is doing better. Things are going in the right direction. She has and is gaining weight, she is eating better, and physically as far as walking, she is getting stronger. I want for all of us to get...

    Thank you, all.

    I have gotten closer to God. The Holy Spirit has led me to do this, obviously. I don't wish to just feel better, which I do. I also feel that a lift has been taken off of me. I realize that life is too short. Thank you.

    I know this is long, but I need to know about any ideas you have for me.

    As the title says, I am confused. I am so tired to doing all of the wrong things. My mother is in need of continued prayer for diabetes. As many of you know about my posts, I live in a stressful situation. What makes it more stressful is that I have finally come to see myself, my family, and...

    Questions and lack of understanding about alternative lifestyles

    According to the Bible, homosexuality is a sin, but does it have to do with God's plan for creation where Adam was created first, then Eve? I have come to realize that is it the real reason why it is a sin or was it something else? The Bible in the Old Testament seems a lot harsher than in the...

    Please pray for Japanese singer Gackt

    He can truly sing, but I am not sure that He truly knows the Lord. I am writing this because there is a song that I don't like, despite not speaking any Japanese. He seems rather weird in real life. Please pray for his salvation, that is, if he doesn't know Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior.

    Pray for me...Help...I realize that daily, I need to grow closer to God

    I feel at times farther and farther from the Lord. I need to realize that that is the worst thing I can do. I want to be reading for His return and for Him to see that I am being watchful when He returns. I admit that I need to get closer to God, but I don't know how. I am "wracked" with...

    Advice for me

    I have no idea how to witness to others, much less those who live with me. My mistakes and my faults have been pointed out to me. I have never forgotten about it. Deep down, it doesn't hurt, but it still stings. It has been in the back of my mind. I don't know how to overcome those words...

    Should I feel bad about myself as a Christian?

    How do I pray for others, which I don't often do? I just feel so inadequate as a believer in Christ. There are times when I have doubts that I am even a true Christian. Could this be the reason why? Where do I begin?

    Is this the right place to ask these questions? This is about praying for the persecuted.

    I have to admit. I sadly don't pray often for those persecuted for Christ, much less for those of other beliefs such as the Rohingya, who are Muslim. I am sorry for that and I ask the Lord for forgiveness. Lately, I am felt so inadequate as a Christian that I feel that I will never live up to...

    I don't know how to pray for my mother's health

    This letter is one of deep concern. My mother is a patient of yours and I fear that she could get worse. Her diet has greatly improved, but her sugars are still high. However, the swelling in her legs have gone down, but her feet are what I worry about. I am not a doctor, of course, but near...
