Every day I pray that God would use me to bless and encourage people and I ask God to use me in a mighty way.

At this time I am not working ( I am activelly seeking employment) and I dont always have the money to send cards or letters to people as I would like. I spend a lot of my time looking for jobs, cleaning my home, praying a lot for people,

But my question is even though I pray to be used by God to bless others, I am doing normal and ordinary things, How can I encourage and make a difference in peoples lives even in the every day tasks of life?

Think of it like this. If you have someone steal your car. Then you find out who stole your car and tell them you forgive them. Then, they say what did I do wrong? They only stole your car so they can make some money. If they do not think they did wrong then you cannot forgive them. If you think you are a good person and say you are a Christian then you might want to examine yourself with what the bible says. If you are already good in yourself Jesus did not die for you.

He who covers his sins will not prosper,
But whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy.

I'm 18, can I still have sex as a Christian? If not, Christianity is definitely not for me. I love women too much to give up sex what is wrong with it?

a pastor and his pregnant wife and 2 year old live with us- it was suppose to be two weeks, but it has been 2 months and still counting. They have not offered to buy any food, but they eat ours. They use the laundry soap, and leave lights on in the day. I could have afforded two weeks, but only have 100 dollars left in my account. I have to hunt down lost items. I don't get any thank yous, I am sorry, or appreciation. Today I almost cried. I was painting their house and my food was brought over for the spouse in my containers, for lunch and supper, and I was not even offered water.

After the fact that there's no evidence of course, because well there isn't.

1. Occam's Razor (God is much harder to explain than any
scientific theories, therefore the theories are most likely the correct explanations)

2. evolution (God didn't create each species all at once, there was one common ancestor some 4 billion years ago which evolved)

3. contradictions and fallacies in Holy Books (there's a lot!)

4. the number of diverse religions in the world (not every religion can be right according to them)

5. poor morality and violence shown in Holy Books (isn't God supposed to be perfect?)

6. The super-ego projection: A psychological explanation as to why people invent gods just as a perfect version of themselves. That's why most gods are men (patriarchal) and the same ethnicity of the believers.(Indian gods are Indian!)

7. Self-contradictory nature of God: Can God microwave a burrito so hot that he cannot eat it? Who created God?
All those 'logical' arguments

After all, faith by definition is - belief without reason or proof.

Can it ever be anything but blind?

Such as the new OnStar that can be put into cars--they can totally stop your vehicle. Right now it is billed as a unique way to stop thiefs but, it could stop a Christian from fleeing for their lives later too.

"Be a sinner, and let your sins be strong, but let your trust in Christ be stronger, and rejoice in Christ who is the victor over sin, death, and the world. We will commit sins while we are here, for this life is not a place where justice resides... No sin can separate us from Him, even if we were to kill or commit adultery thousands of times each day." ('Let Your Sins Be Strong, from 'The Wittenberg Project;' 'The Wartburg Segment', translated by Erika Flores, from Dr. Martin Luther's
Saemmtliche Schriften, Letter No. 99, 1 Aug. 1521).
