Man, that beast is hard to tame, I feel like going to the wild side all the time. Crystals, orgies, tats, piercings, and a lot of open relationship, and getting into magic.

Sometimes, I'm afraid if I'll be shown miracles, I will accuse the Miracle performer be it Jesus or the Mahdi or Elijah or anyone coming back and chosen by God, of being a sorcerer. I see that I've not tamed irrationality nor is the light that beautiful in my view as it's suppose to be.

I hold this beast at bay, lest I lose everything in this world and next however, indeed that is the severe loss.

I never had a desire to enter into open relationships. Just not my thing. And you already know that I’ve dabbled with magic lol I think trying new things as long as they’re not harmful (drugs, sleeping around, etc) is what makes life interesting!

Your choice, my gratitude is earned

True gratitude is just recognition of value of humans intentions and actions (with their intentions and states) as it is to the best of one's ability. As going beyond that with respect to yourself is arrogance and going beyond that with respect to others is being fake trying to win their pleasure.

But some gratitude is hard for example Parents. It's hard because we owe them so much, and we probably can't do them justice. So we do our best.

Same with God, we can't show true gratitude towards his favors especially in form of revelations and guides - his rope. We try our best.

And the thing about gratitude to God, the more you gain of it, the more you owe him more gratitude for the favor of helping you gain that and helping overcome negativity from the dark sorcery towards his favors.

So it amplifies and makes on more of love - and the highest thing in paradise is love for God and praise for God and when they see the garden and favor, it will increase them in love of God.

No, cuz then I would have to tell my embarrassing stories. :(

I have told them but I later realized nobody could help me so why bother?
I was embarrassed for nothing.
I do not get embarrassed easily, but my stories are very unusual.

They must be some stories to tell! :D

You should write a post about them for us to scrutinise.

Sorry, your god has done nothing to earn my gratitude

As the headline ask.

What would you change about you self if you were able to?
Could you explain why you want this to change about your self?

I want to be less reactive to people and say thank you more etc. I feel freer if I learn to have better relationships with others. My energy is low and still wondering if that's really true or not

I think there is nothing wrong with magic, just we need to be guided by God's chosen guides with respect to it and make use of his guidance with respect to it and not rely on evil people or evil spirits and just assume they are good.

In this case, guidance and discipline and mental focus, has to be guided and can't just go into chaotically.

Maybe, you want to say, God has not done enough for you to earn your gratitude? But surely, if there is a Creator, he's done a lot for you hasn't she/he/it?


Nope, i know precisely what i want say.
I see no evidence of a creator.
Of course you are welcome to your opinion and i would never consider suggesting what you say.

Nothing my eye, Something for sure
I'd have grown up differently. Taken more interest in completely different things then I did.
