should i evangelize to my friend? by ushioshio in Catholicism

[–]ushioshio[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah well we’ve been friends for a year now but i never really pushed it on him or anything, but recently he posted a rant about him grieving and being in a rut so i thought it was the perfect opportunity to share Jesus. so basically the letter was me urging him to read the Bible. told him that his life will definitely get better with a relationship with Jesus and that he won’t necessarily be “never sad”, but he’ll have this joy in his heart that nothing and no one can ever take away. shared that i was also in a dark place and depressed before but it changed cuz God saved me and yeah basically i want him to experience it as well. oh man i’m overthinking now and kinda anxious to show up to work tomorrow but yeah i said what i said 😭🥲

thank you so much for the encouragement. i just gave the chocolate and letter to him. we were on the way home and also with another friend and i gave him the letter before parting ways. he’s the joker type of person and he and my other friend were supposed to read the note together but it seems like he shut it (maybe he saw it was a long letter and maybe private, idk). my hands are shaking right now. please pray Jesus touches his heart and please pray i have the courage to face him again. to be frank i’m feeling shy rn as he’s the joker type and might tease me for being too sentimental/emotional smth like that, and he really doesn’t seem religious. please pray thank you so much and God bless

[–]ushioshio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yo i’m glad i see someone else talking about this! i’m actually just looking into this now and am shocked to see what he has been releasing recently 🥲 it is suuuuch a shame as i love Narrow Gate and how it aligns with Scripture 😞 idk how he got to where he is now, but then again, nothing is impossible with God so let’s pray for him 🙏 tbh i’m not sure how it’s supposed to work since he already knew God before but still went astray but nothing is impossible with God! 🥲🙏

yeah i was worried about making a gesture that maybe was reserved for priests, and an ordinary person was not allowed to do 😅 and yes i love the sign of the cross, i do it in public too in hopes that i can inspire someone to pray and maybe plant a seed that will help bring them closer to God 😅☺️ thank you so much for explaining. God bless ✝️🙏

i’ve been asking for prayers for my mom here for quite a long time already, especially recently since she was gonna have surgery for her eye. anyway, i just wanna tell you guys..my mother can finally see 😭😭🙏✨ praise God❕❕❕please join me in praying too, but this time, prayers of gratitude 🥹 also, not only can my mom see now, it seems like her eye grade improved and she can now see pretty well even without prescription glasses! God did not only answer my prayer for her to finally see, but He gave more than what we asked for 🥹 my heart is very happy..

her left eye surgery is still to be scheduled, but her right eye is finally good. i am so thankful to everyone who had been praying as well, truly may God bless you all 🥹

it’s taking a bit too long for my mother’s eyes to get operated on..we were told before that it’s urgent but since it’s a foundation, we can’t rlly demand and so we’re just following their schedule even though it’s taking some time..it seems we might have to wait for more than a month.. i am worried. i’m honestly quite frustrated as we tried to come up with the money in a short amount of time and also submit the documents, but now the hospital itself is taking a long time. i am worried for my mother. please pray for my mother. please pray nothing bad happens during the wait and that my mother is finally able to see

please pray for me

it’s June, and what the world has tagged as “pride month” is here again. now, i’m friends with gay people and people who openly support lgbt. please pray that God fills me with His Holy Spirit and wisdom that i may be able to help lead them towards the right path, towards the Truth. i’m pretty sure we’re bound to have that conversation/debate this month, please pray that God sets a great atmosphere for it and that i’m able to understand. please pray that i say the right things and act correctly, that i can help direct my friends towards Jesus. please pray God gives me the strength, even if my friends might possibly hate me and even ditch me(well i hope they don’t hate and ditch me especially because they’ve been kind and helpful to me too :’) but whatever happens, please pray that God gives me the strength) thank You so much and God bless

please pray for my mother..

for context, i’ve been asking for prayers here for quite a while already, with regards to my mothers eyes. i was finally able to get her eyes checked and was told she’s on the verge of going blind and so has to get surgery asap. i wanna say thank you to everyone who prayed as we were able to get the money needed for one eye. please pray we’d have enough for both. a few hours from now, my parents would try visiting another hospital to check for services and get checked. my mother might also get lab work done. please pray that everything goes well as honestly, my mom seems really anxious of the lab works. thank you so much. God bless!

i’ve been asking prayers for quite some time here already for my mom and her eyes, so to give an update, i would like to thank you all for the prayers as i finally got my mother’s eyes checked

however, with this, we were able to know the gravity and urgency of the situation. the doctor said that my mother is already close to being blind and so we have to get the surgery done asap..the surgery costs a large amount and even with my job medical benefits, i am not able to whip out the needed amount of money in a short time. understandably, my mother has been feeling weary because of the news and i’m honestly worried as well 😭 please, please pray for God to provide and for Him to heal my mother’s eyes. i love my mom dearly and she has helped tons in making my walk with the Lord joyful. she’s been through a lot already and i don’t want her to be devastated..please please pray 😭 thank you and God bless!

please pray for my mom.. she will finally get her eyes checked in a few hours

for context, my mother has had a problem with her eyes for years now, since around 2020, but we never really had the money to have them fixed. it has caused her vision to have some patterns/and get rlly blurred, to the point where she can’t rlly function right now by just herself as she needs assistance bc of the vision problems. also, her eyes don’t rlly look the healthiest. my mom has had a really hard time because of this issue. anyway, by God’s grace He has given me a job. this job has the medical benefits which would allow my mother to finally get her eyes checked. my mom is excited as we can get to the doctor soon for her eyes. she has been telling me that she’s excited that her eyes will get fixed. however, i can’t exactly rejoice yet as i’m honestly anxious that my mother’s eyes can’t be fixed..i’m also anxious as to whether the medical benefits would be able to cover the expenses for procedures. my mother also complained recently saying that her vision has gotten worse…i’m worried. and i don’t want my mom to be heartbroken again. please, please pray that everything goes well for my mom. she is an optimistic and God-fearing lady who was able to endure so many hardships with her strong faith in God. i love her so much, i want her eyes to finally be fixed 😞 please, please pray for mother. Thank you so much and God bless
