Given the world today and the evil pushed so blatantly, it has created too much despair and ugliness. Let's change that little by little.

Just because we have to live in this world does not mean we have to live of it.

Evil will not win. The good, the true and the beautiful will always win out. We must start acting within it though if that's what we desire.

So in this thread include some prayers for yourself, for others, or check in and let us know that you prayed. Ask for a prayer even. There is nothing greater than humbling yourself and being grateful for the here and now. To be grateful for God, to be grateful for your family and friends, or for the health of your loved ones.

Play this and pray before bed or when you wake up in the morning.



"Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me a sinner."

This is not a thread to argue religion, theology and do not come in here to bash others or these ideas. Srs.

Praise Ron.

Of course. Ron must be praised for his persistent online evangelism lol

DeadlyStriker, I used to believe that evil was something that was metaphorical. That true evil didn't exist. As I've gotten older, the line between 'good' and 'evil' has become so much more clearly defined in my eyes. Simply from observing the world around me. Its not metaphorical at all. True evil does exist. And its everywhere.

Yes. And thus, Good must exist. Trust me I was an atheist/agnostic until about 7 years ago. My faith has only grown stronger now. The devil only has influence though. He's been inverting the world in front of us. Men become women or women become men, killing babies in the womb is not actually killing babies, fat is healthy, schools don't teach, medical industry makes you sick, and son on.

All it takes is some prayer and seeing the good to start fighting back. Evil is a virus. A virus can be cured.

I use this prayer daily, usually multiple times per day

OP is not a faaggot, truly we are blessed in this thread.

Simple, concise and beautiful. Thanks for sharing. I find these short prayers are great for throughout the day. Similar to the Jesus prayer and others. Will use this one.You get it brah. Like Isaac says in genesis when he named the third well he built Rehoboth (room) "For now the Lord has made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land."

Here is our little room.

I'm atheist. But ok:

Dear God,

I'm one of the apes on a tiny planet you probably never heard of. We are alive. It's pretty cool. Why did you create the universe? Do you have a concept of good and evil? Is there a plan for existence? Can you please do me a solid and get rid of Trump for me? Thanks bro.

in for lata

Honestly when I was atheist this is how I started praying randomly. Asking God questions. That was 7/8 years ago.Das it boyo. Byzantine catholic or are you Eastern Orthodox?


Hope the day has treated you guys well today. Had a charity event for a friend that died last year and had a son 2 months before.

Will comment later when I do some nightly prayers before bed.

Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my trust in you.

Neither, I am Christian but don't follow organized religion.
Byzantine is my handle because I majored in near eastern ancient history at uni and I found the Byzantines to be especially interesting (:

Forgot about this thread.

Just did some late night prayers from the prayer book.

I prayed for the misc and our misc bro Kormo that he is alright and recovering well from his surgery.



Prayer of St. Macarius the Great (good bedtime prayer)

O Eternal God and King of all creation, Who hast vouchsafed me even to attain to this hour, forgive me the sins which I have committed this day, in deed, word and thought, and, O Lord, cleanse my humble soul from every stain of flesh and spirit. Grant me, O Lord, to pass through the sleep of this night in peace, that when I have risen from my lowly bed, I may please Thy most holy Name all the days of my life, and vanquish the enemies, both bodily and bodiless, that contend against me. And deliver me, O Lord, from vain thoughts that stain me and from evil desires. For Thine is the kingdom, and the power and the glory, of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto the ages of ages. Amen.

In.

Our Lord! Let not our hearts deviate from the truth after You have guided us, and bestow upon us mercy from Your grace. Verily You are the Giver of bounties without measure. (3:8)
