Maybe you're holding yourself back without knowing it? How do I fix that then? I'm not sure. Maybe you need to sit down and just think about what you could be doing that may be holding you back? Pray about it, just look up to God and tell him that He's in control and just let go of everything?

yo tre, can i make a layout for the thread? it'd be really simple, nothing very extravagant. just a div box or two. Sure, as long as it works fine on mobile. Also if anyone wants to make a banner for this thread, I'm not opposed. Just sayin'.

Tree, I could make a banner possibly. ;0 It would be awhile, though, because my mom has banned me from GIMP while I try to get caught up in school.
e11e Definitely will be praying.

Hey could you guys pray for me?
I'm going to go surprise a couple old friends of mine by dropping in and visiting them, it's making me really anxious even though I know they'll be excited? And the town where I'll be meeting their mom at isn't a spiritually good place? It's got some really bad vibes and I've had some bad experiences there. So yeah if ya'll could pray that my anxiety will calm down and that I will be safe that would be great <3

Oh my gosh I'm so sorry, Skittles! I'll pray for you. I can't believe that surgery for a tiny animal would cost so much. It's ridiculous how expensive the vet is now....

Skittles & Val: Praying for y'all!!
I have two prayer requests of my own... First, for my grandparents. Their dog of 12 years died today, and my grandfather (whose health is non-too good) has always been very emotionally attached to his dogs. It'll be hard on him. Second, for me. I recently relapsed into an old habitual sin of mine I though I'd put behind me, so I need the strength to move on and not let the guilt hold me down.

Def will pray for your grandpa and yourself, Shad! I've had problems with habitual sin as well so I know the feeling.

Glad to hear he's going in for surgery! Hope it's not too expensive!
Then maybe, Elle, you should just try to not think about anything? And just try to block everything out for a while to get some relief? :c

Um.... I'm not really the type of person to be doing this, but could y'all pray for me? My guinea pig has been peeing blood, I've only noticed it today. I know most of you dont know me, but those who do knows that he is my pride and joy. My family and I took him to the vet and they said he has bladder stones. He has to have surgery. We have to go to this other place, but we're not sure if we can. Money is a huge issue and I've read about other people saying it cost up to $500 dollars, plus $250 for the x-ray. We don't have that kind of money, so we might not be able to give him the surgery and help my guinea pig needs. I'm honestly really freaking out about this ;-; Aww poor guy. I'm so sorry. I'll definitely pray.

Let's talk about the Holy Spirit, guys. I want to hear people's thoughts. How much emphasis do you think we should put on Him? Should we specifically worship Him at all, or is worshipping our triune God in general enough?

Should we specifically worship Him at all, or is worshipping our triune God in general enough? When you worship one person of the trinity, you worship the other two. So one is both. Part of the Trinitarial Mystery! I think the Holy Spirit doesn't get enough attention or the focus it is due. Or maybe that's just in my experience.

That's a good question. I agree with Shad. I tend not to think as much about the Holy Spirit, which is something I should change.

I agree that we probably don't give the Holy Spirit as much attention as He deserves in mainstream Christianity. However, some denominations seem to place too much emphasis on Him- specifically on what He can do for believers in terms of emotions and spiritual gifts and such. I also want to note that just as Jesus seeks to bring glory to the Father rather than Himself, it seems that the Holy Spirit seeks to bring glory to Jesus rather than to Himself (John 16).

My dog's been doing this weird thing recently where he, like, tenses up his jaw muscles and chatters his teeth. Probably nothing but could you keep him in your prayers regardless?

Don't forget, the Holy Spirit is the manifestation of the love between the Father and the Son. So loving the Spirit shows admiration for God's father-son bond ^^

I see nothing wrong with praying to or worshipping the Holy Spirit, because He is God. We are called into fellowship with Him (2 Corinthians 13:14). I agree He doesn't get the attention that He should.
Also, I'll pray, Tree.
