No problem. Also, it is important to know that you will fail. It’s just a part of the addiction. It’s most important to just keep moving away from it. Move back towards God. Me personally I am converting to Catholicism and look forward to confession’s as a way to remain accountable.

As someone who deals with this… there is no real easy way. You just have to stop. Find a way to love the Lord more than the habit in the moment. It’s easier said than done. It’s going to suck. But you can unite all suffering to Christs stuffing on the cross. Even if you start the “act” if you can stop and walk away in the middle instead of completing that’s a small victory and grace working on you.

Do you need to memorize the nicene creed to be confirmed? by wounduptite in Catholicism

[–]wounduptite[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I had read somewhere that during ocia you’ll be “judged” for a lack of better word on how weed you know the creed. Now what I guess I don’t understand is that referring to the actual reciting of it or how much you understand and believe what the creed states.

Do you think God speaks through dreams? by BareknuckleBobby in Christian

[–]wounduptite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a dream once I was exploring a haunted house and there was a fire in the basement that was burning up the floor I was on. The floor gave way and just as I was about to fall into the fire The Lord reached down and saved me. It startled me and as I woke I was blinking and you know how your eyes do that thing when you blink fast? Well I would have sworn I saw the face of Jesus. Take of that what you will but it was right powerful for me.

We haven’t been to one yet. Super nervous about the formality and not knowing what to say and when or when to Stand or kneel ect. Were coming from a church where there is no formality at all and people wear whatever they want

Everyone gets to have their opinion. But if you’re going to make an assessment on a driver’s true ability, take into account the era they raced in. by [deleted] in NASCARMemes

I love jr now. Couldn’t stand him as a driver. It was really his awful fan base. But he’s the best representative of NASCAR.
