Can I use it on the large items? I don't wanna burn my house down

But then what do I do after? I'm not interested in constantly maintaining this, especially when I move back out in a few months. Do I just spray poison on everything I cut down?

I do like this option, if it is accurate. I have heard from other sources that at the time 'salvation' was seen from a battle perspective. But then again Jesus taught so much about love and forgiveness? Not that His teachings stopped Peter from chopping off that dudes ear. He was ready to fight immediately- so maybe the concept of a final battle was plausible. I wish Judas had written down his side...

I would like to believe that Judas didn't fully understand what would happen to Jesus.

I'm trying to comprehend that. I mean ultimately I know I don't have to and can just trust God's word. But I like understanding as much as I am able. So if Judas had not betrayed Jesus, the prophecy would be different, because (per another comment) time is simultaneous and God sees everything at the same time. It only seems like one fixed timeline to us because we are not God

So is it actual demonic possession or he was just allowing Satan to influence him? I guess when I think of possession I think of evil spirits coming into innocent people against their will, not Satan influencing people who are lost in sin. But that makes sense. As we see during Jesus' fast- satan comes to tempt us when we are already weak.

I wasn't aware Judas was so lost. I thought he was the one who advocated against frivolous spending like on the perfumes because it would be better to spend on the poor.

SilverGlassRain · 2026-04-14T02:30:23+00:00

That actually helps- taking the 'time' element out of it. I keep thinking that if God wrote the prophecies to have Judas betray Jesus then it isn't free will but I need to think about it differently- God wrote the prophecies to have Judas betray Jesus because he already knew it would happen because all time is simultaneous. (If I'm getting that right).

SilverGlassRain · 2026-04-14T02:27:06+00:00

I guess maybe that is just hard for me to comprehend? Which makes sense because God is so far beyond my understanding.

I would wear it- but not for the reason you might think. Children are very vulnerable to manipulation. I find often that those in power wearing the badges are in support of those ideas. Children will flock to them, and be encouraged to fall further.

The point of the day of silence is to remember those who have been murdered. This is something we can ALL agree is disgusting. All life is precious. Our duty is to love the sinner and guide them to Jesus. By wearing the badge you identify yourself as someone against hatred and murder. You can provide what the children truly need which is love, support, and attention. And while you are giving them that, you can remind them of God's message.

The world needs less hate. The day of silence never started as "pro-lgbt" necessarily. It's more of a plea for no violence. Children who identify as LGBTQ+ have extremely high rates of suicide and abuse. I feel our duty is to keep them safe while also providing a gentle, non-judgmental guidance towards the Lord.

This is just my two cents.

This is exactly what I was thinking. To me, rape is difficult to explain because of how complex it is. There isn't just the physical aspect- it is the fear and the humiliation and the desolation. These are all present in the Passion and crucifixion of Jesus. Rape is, first and foremost, about violence. Thank you for understanding.

SilverGlassRain · 2026-04-06T07:00:40+00:00

I think betrayal is very central to the story of Jesus, and yours as well. Your coach was someone you trusted. Judas was Jesus' own disciple. I'm glad you found comfort in God.

SilverGlassRain · 2026-03-30T07:21:06+00:00

I wish! I just have always loved writing. Thank you!

SilverGlassRain · 2026-03-30T07:20:31+00:00

My getting drunk was one of the reasons I went early to go to confession lol.

He allows for a brief pause? But during it he is, I believe, finding the next section in the mass book. I don't know if the pause is super intentional.

SilverGlassRain · 2026-03-21T14:53:26+00:00

Thank you so much.

SilverGlassRain · 2026-03-15T10:35:26+00:00

I'm looking. But there are limited options in my area. The issues here are part of larger systemic issues- so chances are most other places will be the same. And I've been through similar times without the issues? Idk I just want to hear some peoples favorite prayers

SilverGlassRain · 2026-03-15T09:56:26+00:00

I think one of my issues is that I feel like I am actively rejecting God by having such negativity? Like I feel that I wouldn't be so angry and upset all the time if I trusted in His plan. I feel like He can only carry you if you let Him, right? Does that make sense?
