I know God is supposed to be able to do anything if we'll let Him, but can He turn something bad into something good? My husband and I broke up our first marriages in order to get married, and although that was years ago I still feel guilty over the heartache we caused our families.
What good does it do for me to pray for someone I hardly know? Our church (which is fairly large) has an active prayer chain, but often I don't even know the people they are asking me to pray for.
I have a friend who has no use for God. When I asked him if he ever worried about going to hell, he just laughed and said he looks forward to it because all his friends will be there and they'll have one big party. Is he spiritually hopeless?
If I commit a sin just before I die, and I don't have time to confess it to God or get His forgiveness, does that mean I won't go to heaven?
I've been on a spiritual search most of my life, and I've tried just about everything. A couple of weeks ago, however, I gave my life to Jesus, and I really believe my search is over. But does this mean I ought to stop living with my boyfriend? We've been together for over a year but he's made it clear that he isn't interested in Jesus.
I know Christmas is still weeks away but already I'm dreading it. It's such a busy time for our family, and we always end up spending more than we should. I know you'll probably say we ought to keep Christ in Christmas, but how can we?
I've ruined my life because of some stupid things I did, and now I'm in prison. I feel so hopeless. Even my family doesn't want anything to do with me when I get out in a few months. If you could give me just one piece of advice, what would it be?
What's the difference between feeling guilty over your sins and feeling regret for them? Or is there any? Several of us were discussing this in our Bible class the other day, but we didn't come to any conclusion.
I pray often every day and try to stay focused on God, but sometimes I wonder if I'm just kidding myself. I want to have a strong faith, and sometimes I feel I do, but no matter how much I pray my feelings don't last. What am I doing wrong?
I'm in high school and I became a Christian two months ago. But I know God must be very angry at me now, because I've done something I know I shouldn't have done. Have I lost my salvation? Can I get it back, or is God too upset with me?
Why is it that God will forgive you when you've done something wrong, but other people won't? I admit I hurt some people over something I did wrong, but now they refuse to forgive me or have anything to do with me. I know God has forgiven me, but I want their forgiveness also.
I guess I've always believed in God, but I've not been what you'd call a very spiritual person. Recently, however, some things have happened that have made me realize I need to get closer to God, but I don't know how. Is spirituality something some people are just born with and others aren't?
