I just found out that the Salvation Army doesn't do baptism and the Lord's Supper. I am very disappointed. I had thought, wow, now I have a church that is spiritually very active, and cares for the needy first. I had been really happy. Now I find that they forego on two very important, two beloved sacraments. This is rather depressing. Why did they ( Read more... )

I was just studying a link given to me by hisprophet, a study of God's emotions. It's been very helpful to read, something I should study more ( Read more... )

What a wonderful sunday. I was in church with my new friend Annett which I got to know in the hospital and which was persuaded to go to church with me. It was wonderful there. As usual, I was a little reluctant to go there, not from decisiveness to go there, but from feeling. I know that other christians go to church differently, more willingly, ( Read more... )

On friday I'm gonna leave the hospital. My doctor finds that I could take the remaining time of getting used to the new medicine on my own. I'm pretty happy with that idea, since, honestly, I am getting a little bored from being in the hospital. It's not really boring, as I found I just need to look around to do something worthwhile, but I'm not ( Read more... )

I think I also saw Christ how ( Read more... )

I've been thinking a little about sexuality - and how much I often get entangled in it. What I mean is partly my loneliness without a girlfriend, without sex, which is giving me trouble, and the rest is getting lustful eyes at times. It's not so bad anymore like it was some years ago when I followed every woman's figure with my eyes, but neither ( Read more... )

Today I was in church again, after a long time without any attendance to a divine service. I had woken up a bit too late and so I missed about 30 minutes, but I'm happy I went anyway, so that I could catch the remaining time of the service. It was pretty good, but as usual, I had some trouble with patiently listening and singing devotedly. It's not ( Read more... )
