Description
I prayed to God that he will take away my habitBut I only heard,
"I can only guide you, and you must be the one to have the strength to give it up."
I prayed to God to take away my friend's impurities.
But I only heard,
"The spirit is the only thing that matters; the body is only there for a short time."
I prayed to God to still my anger.
But only heard,
"You must learn to be patient; I will send guidance."
I prayed to God to make me a more joyous person.
But I only heard,
"I give you blessings and miracles, and you must decide whether to be happy about it or not."
I prayed to God to take away my suffering.
But I only heard,
"Offer it up in reparation, for through suffering you get closer to me."
I prayed to God so that I may serve him better.
But I only heard,
"Have faith, and do good works."
I ask God to help me love others just as he himself loves the world.
And I heard,
"You will be blessed; go in peace to love and serve, I, the Lord."

I pray to God even though he is my brother, together we overcome but it has taken four lords and a king who leads our army and nothing can kill or hold more power than us. the bible talks mainly shit which is handy for reference though and we as people take whatever thou need to help your good fight but I warn all brothers and sisters the serpents are so cunning you will have to lose the plot in order to find me, the only way to new heaven is through our honor, grace and my forgiveness. there is only one true prophet alive forever - the spirit of christ delivers.....

I prayed to God to take away my friend's impurities.
But I only heard,
"The spirit is the only thing that matters; the body is only there for a short time." This? Well, I'm asking to take away the physical imperfections on their bodies. But the body is only here on earth for a short time and that the spirit will be even more beautiful than the appearance of the person now, and how we shouldn't judge people based on what they look like, but based on their heart and soul.

Am I being called a hater ? I merely expressed a different point of view . Hate is a very extreme word, dont you think?

Just to offer another point of view.
' THERE'S PROBABLY NO GOD, NOW STOP WORRYING AND ENJOY YOUR LIFE' - Athiest Bus Campaign, Ariane Sherine, British Humanist Association and Richard Dawkins...I think thats the credits sorted.
Ariane Sherine became angry after she saw a set of Christian advertisements carrying a website address which warned that people who reject God are condemned to spend all eternity to 'torment in hell'
she said she wanted to promote her own message that people can believe whatever they wanted.

I pray to God, and I don't know if any are hearing me. I ask for an answer, and it is that I'm a traitor to my people. There is no way out. If I die, I would probably end up in a place worse than Hell.
I don't even care that this was stolen. I hate it for reminding me.

I'm glad there's SOMEONE on here that had a right-mind.
Unlike the ignorant people who judge Christians without even truly looking into it.

You may not have actually written this, but you admitted it outright and you're not profitting off it, so that's good enough for me.
Please ignore all the haters/religious-intolerant peolple and never take this down unless forced, because this is so fantastically beautiful and inspirational and this just made my day ;v;

read the description, it's all my work now
And thank you, I'm glad you think it's beautiful and I'm glad it made your day.

This is truly great! I love it. And ignore the people complaining, people will do that no matter what you say or post, some people aren't happy until they are criticizing, degrading, or complaining about other people's work.
P.S. Don't ever take this down.

Oh look another Christian claiming they heard God looks like someone else in the world lost their free will
👍: 0 ⏩: 4
Oh look..
Another person whose only out to criticize other people.
You say 'free will';
yet you push down other people for choosing freely,
in their free will,
to serve God.
Hypocrite.

I wasn't looking to criticise others I was stating a fact inside of the bible and through my comment I was not forcing her to stop believing tell me where in my comment I stated stop believing in god?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Nah, but you stated it as if shes ignorant for believing so.
Do you believe that everything in the universe came out/from nothing?
Yes yes, we are just crazy Christians for believing that this all came from something greater.
EOS, not replying.

I think it's quite the contrary. But that's just an opinion of course.
But if you don't believe in God then as the other person said. To each their own. (:
