Faith and Fitness

Hello everyone who needs support today. I just want to offer a prayer for us who need it today: Dear Father, we just commit this day to you. We ask for your strength to help us make healthy choices today. In my own strength it is impossible, but nothing is to hard for you. For those of us who have a goal to meet, I ask for your help to reach it. For those of us who need your loving touch today, I ask that we would sense your grace upon us. May our lives bring
glory to you. Thank you for your help, in Jesus name we pray, Amen.

Hello, that was a beautiful paragraph. I'm a Catholic and agree with everything you have written. But here's the problem, not everyone here wants to read prayer and these types of threads often turn into chaos. So even though you meant well, things can go downhill quickly when people feel the topic is divisive. But what you can do is create a group and invite others who share your love for prayer to join you. There you can talk about prayer and say just about whatever you'd like without worrying that it could offend someone. While I don't find it offensive personally, some do. I'm not at all bashing your thread like I said, I think it's beautiful.

If someone finds a prayer offensive, they can just keep on scrolling it's a choice to read it, it's a choice to comment........thank you for your prayer. I'm in agreement with you today, jargill!
