He it is Who sends down His blessing on you, and His angels pray for you, that He may bring you forth from all kinds of darkness into light. And He is Merciful to the believers.

Last year... during Ramadan... I ended up in the hospital one of the nights...
They still didn't know what was wrong and were doing tests... n so by the time I was about to get a CT-scan the morning prayer had passed... n I had to drink something for the scan...
My hubby said I should drink the liquid... n not fast that day... so I did...

And I started fasting after I was released from the hospital… but one day… the pain came back n so I decided to break my fast by taking meds…

ANYWAYS... my question is... did I do the right thing by breaking my fasts?
I have made them up… but I think I made a mistake!

THANKS IN ADVANCE...

once I heard a voice asking me' do you want to see God"? I got so scared I said 'no' this was 2 years ago. Now I am thriving to see God. god prophecies through dreams which has come true about my family and also through feelings. Does it mean God wants to use me? If so how do I know. Please help. No fake answers please. I am serious about this.

My boyfriend and I have been together three years.. He is 20 and I am 19.. Recently his mom has been acting a little weird.. It was my birthday and he asked me if he should order tickets to a local baseball team for the 4th of july ( It always sells out ) I was like yes! because we had talked about going, fireworks and fun stuff etc.. His mom heard and said " You aren't going to grandmas?? You don't know how long she'll have to live!" He's never went to his grandma's on the 4th before.. even he was confused.. Then last night she comes in his room at like 12:30 and is like when are you bringing Heather (me) home.. and he's like after the movie.. why?? and she didnt answer and walked away.. Then the next morning she said to him " are you going to church with me? " He said no.. and she was like "so you can spend all night with your girlfriend and not go to church with me??" Im confused because we've always gotten along well! ( Me and his mom ) Think she feels like shes losing her son?

Look. You can't just concentrate on Christians for believing in a religion. For example... You can't blame people for believing that the U.S will, i dunno, win the football world cup sometime. No matter how ridiculous it sounds, it's just a belief.

I'm more of an atheistic catholic.... I think it's a great institution, and it's a good way to live your life, what catholicism teaches.

Anyway. I'm an intelligent person, I've read up on and understand things like evolution, and geology, and plate tectonics, and biology and astrophysics. And I'm also INTERESTED (just interested) in theology, so I've read on that too.

Anyway. Be careful in using the generalisation "Christians" when referring to the crazies that refuse to believe in little things like evolution, and the age of the earth etc.

It's insulting to the rest of us.

God burdens not any soul beyond its capacity. It shall have the reward it earns, and it shall get the punishment it incurs. Our Lord, do not punish us if we forget or fall into error, and our Lord, lay not on us a responsibility as Thou didst lay upon those before us. Our Lord, burden us not with what we have not the strength to bear; and efface our sins, and grant us forgiveness, and have mercy on us; Thou art our Master; so help us against the disbelieving people.

50% of heterosexual marriages end up in divorce within the first 5 years nowadays. And I've heard homosexual relationships break up faster. I was wondering about bi-sexual people. They are sxually attracted to both sexes so aren't their chances of being faithful in a long-term relationship much less than the rest of us?

Do you think that relationships between any 2 people would last longer if sex wasn't the main focus?

Do you believe Islam to be the last warning/messege sent by God? and the last Abrahamic religion sent by God?

and if you said no, then why do you blame the jewish of not believing in christiantiy? isn't life repeats itself? the pharoh denied Moses, Jewish denied Jesus, and christians denied Muhammad?

How did you learn to juggle concepts so well? You use logic AND intuition when you answer. (no easy feat!) How did you learn to juggle spirituality, philosophy, religion, and/or psychology to come up with those responses? Do you ever drop the ball? You obviously use both hemispheres(your right AND left 'hands') Did you know that this is what you were doing? I'm pretty familiar with this circus called Y/A, R&S and I've read your answers and it's no accident. Can you train others, like me? In my last 10 or so questions I threw many ideas of different sizes and weights at you, and you handled them like a pro. WTF?! You seem to have a good grasp on what you know, and don't know.
I consider all of you my Teachers and if I didn't pick your answer as 'best', it doesn't mean I didn't learn a great deal from you. If you decide to keep your 'trade secrets' to yourself, will you at least star my question so that I know you hear me? I know you're very humble, but please indulge me.

Today my 18 year old granddaughter graduated from high school. This is a miracle, for she spent several years with depression, and cutting herself.....was in and out of institutions for help and counseling. MUCH PRAYER was done for this dear child. God has mightily delivered her from all this bad stuff.....and she has finished her course with flying colors !! She has also been accepted into a local junior college in the fall. All praise to our wonderful Lord !! Thank You, Lord Jesus!

the phrase "para bellum" doesn't have "for" and yet it means "prepate for war".

I've read some pretty crazy questions like, "can Prince William marry an American?" I can't think of any American that would be worthy of marring any European Prince or Princess. Even though we all recall that Dixon Boardman married Princess Arriana zu Hohenlohe-Langenburg and Grace Kelly married Prince Rainier of Monaco. I think that we also remember when Charles Spencer-Churchill, 9th Duke of Marlborough married Consuelo Vanderbilt. But a Prince in line to the British throne wouldn't need an American to be his wife.

You would have to begin with having a name like Boardman, Astor, or Vanderbilt before you thought of marring European Royalty.

With that said and others letting their imagination run away I am asking this question.

Suppose for one moment that Prince Harry decides that he is a Papist, wants to marry a New York Italian Roman Catholic, and wants to become a Knight of the Sovereign Military Order Of Malta. Would he forfeit his right as 3rd in line to the throne?
