And what's more, there's not even another job out there that I would want to do nearly as much as this. All the other fields I'm interested in either a.) have no real jobs or b.) involve suicide (calc IV and similar classes).
I was once recommended to seek professional help by a priest. But he wasn't my foc and it wasn't during a confession so I didn't listen. As it stands now I don't regret not listening. I trust God over lab coats.
Ironically, I'm trying to become a p…
"And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart." - Jeremiah 29:13
I admire your open mind, which you've shown just by posting here in the first place. I highly recommend the "Case for" series by Lee Strobel (The Case …
I know exactly what you are experiencing. It can be really difficult to get out of that state. For me it took an experience to wake me up. I'll pray for you; don't ever neglect in praying about this yourself, even if you don't feel any connection wh…
A in AP Euro? Impressive o_O I'm taking that now, and it's insane.
Some teachers can just be a bit....difficult. In the grand scheme of things though, you're gonna end up fine :)
Thank you both for answering.
The strange thing is, I can't even remember how I ended up on it. I'm not normally going to these sites or listening to internet preachers; and generally I can tell when something I hear seems a bit sketchy; I was just…
I've been through a similar situation. I think it's pretty clear what what you did in ending it was the right thing to do. The only thing is, it does get worse before it gets better. Don't allow yourself to dwell on those past days; that will do not…
Marenhos, there's more to it than that. I think it's more of a common thing than you would expect. Anyone can be tempted with a suicidal thought, just like with anything else.
Yeah, in the last part the Coptic text only says the very last bit: "Therefore we glorify Him, proclaiming and saying, “ 'Blessed are You O my Lord Jesus, for You have risen and saved us.' "
I find the account that Fr. Peter posted very fascinating…

In an exposition of the 6th hour Gospels (during Good Friday) St. Dionysius the Areopagite says that "through the Divine Providence of God, that he covered Himself …
Find any other way to get in contact with your foc...even if you can't sit down with him, communicating through texting or phone calls is much better than nothing.
You said you can still attend on Good Friday, correct? Make sure you do not let yours…
Great post TITL, and great choice of color scheme :)
My intercessor (St. Moses) the Black has helped me in more ways than I can describe. Yet at the same time, there are things that I've been praying about for months now that still have not been a…
I don't have time to check it out now but I guess they were able to see my 784363674745743829 failed login attempts and they emailed me saying they've fixed the problem on my account.
