A friend of mine passed away when I was 15, and a few weeks after her death, I had what I believe to be a prophetic dream about her. This poem is about the dream I had. “A Glimpse of Heaven” Your death is not a true one. How do I know? Last night, I saw you In a white dress...

Happy Maundy Thursday, everyone! What does everyone's church do for the Triduum? My church has a Communion service tonight that has a footwashing service early in the service. At the end of the service, the congregation says Psalm 22 while the altar is stripped. We receive no benediction, and...

Hi, everyone! I'm not a parent, or even married, for that matter, but I have something that's really bothering me about my future parenting choices. I am a pretty devout Christian - I go to church every time there's a service unless I'm ill, and maybe not even that could keep me away. I sing...

I wrote this 3 years ago, before high school graduation: On the End of High School The forced smile, Perpetual lump in the throat, And urge to clasp that boy close forever I know I should be joyfully Shouting and jumping around; I can’t let go of my desperate plea for one more day...

I'm a pastor's granddaughter, grandniece, and great - granddaughter (and, in a few years, will be a pastor's kid). My sister and I were baptized by our grandpa, and I thought I had the coolest grandpa ever when I was a kid, because he got to be a pastor all the time (mind you, this was before I...

I am, temporarily, on account of Lenten services. Not quite :liturgy:, but still chanting. Anyone else? :)

Ask me anything you wish! :D

How many of you received a verse upon confirmation? I did not; I found a verse on my own later that I took as my confirmation verse: But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God.” (John 3:21) For those of you...

On my birthday (March 21) select theatres will be playing Casablanca! If I can, I'm going to go see it as a 21st birthday present to myself. Who else will?

I've had Meniere's officially for about a year, though I know the symptoms have been there for at least 2. I take a diuretic, and it helps. I also have severe motion sickness, as in I can't swing on a swing for very long anymore, and I have to take medication if I'm in a car for more than an...

I've been depressed since I was 12 years old. I can't remember a time when I was truly happy for more than a day. And yet, I know and remember the words God spoke to me when I was at my lowest point: "You are my child, my beloved child. I love you so very much." I may not be happy, but I know...

1. Knock - knock. Who's there? Warren. Warren who? Warren Peace. 2. I went to buy some camouflage trousers the other day but I couldn't find any. 3. Once, a vampire was walking along a sidewalk, hoping to get home before dawn. He felt something splat on him, and saw that it was a tomato...

Every year I lose more and more loved ones. My grandpa died nearly 9 years ago; a close friend died my sophomore year in high school, and my grandma died days before (and was buried the day before) my 19th birthday. Even years after the events, I cry and miss them dearly. They are with God, but...

I'm in the USA, and at 21, a person is allowed to drink. I would never drink to excess, but is it wrong to celebrate being legally able to imbibe? :o
