Father, I want to ask you about the problem I’m having with going to church, my mother does not have the time nor energy to drive me, and since I am to young to get a drivers license I cannot go myself. So should i ask my mother to drive me when she can or for me to drive myself there as soon as I get my license? (I am 14 as of now)

You deserve an answer my boy. I am not sure that Father Spyridon can or will reply. God bless you for seeking out God. Continue to pray for a solution. Perhaps one of the church members would give you a ride to and from church. You should inquire with the pastor or deacon of the church. They may be able to help.

[@jquilesmma]

Being lukewarm is a condition of the heart towards God. If you want to find God and recover from the condition of your heart being lukewarm, you must get into the word of God. (The Bible ) with a heart posture of strictly longing or wanting to know who God is. This must be your only intention, Then you will find God and grow into a deeper intimate relationship with God. Matthew 5:6 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled” / Deuteronomy 4:29-31 "But if from there you seek the LORD your God, you will find him if you seek him with all your heart and with all your soul".

[@MikeandTaniaLean]

Hello, my name is tania, if I had the gift with words, I could say something that could console your hurt, but I don’t have such words. I am a mother of six, praise the Lord they are all alive, but, my parents lost five sons. This is a true story we were told by Bishop Filoret, who went on to become Metropolitan Filoret of the Orthodox Church abroad. In early Russia, a man was traveling, evening found him in a village he knew no one. He stopped at a house. Because there was no light, he thought he would not knock on the door but rest in the wagon close by. He fell asleep quickly, but was woken up by words and a very brilliant light from the porch of the house. When his eyes were adjusted to the light, he realised they were two Angels of God. One was Angel of life and the other an Angel of death. They were discussing the child that was just born, as to at what age this new born will die. The Angel of death insisted that he should die now, but the Angel of life said now, let him live. After a few minutes they agreed that he will die at the age of 21. My dear friend in Christ, it seems that we are born with a time of our death. Please forgive me if I have spoken out of turn and upset you. tania.

[@googleplaynow9608]

Your Father does not commit evil. That is blasphemy. I'm sorry you're hurt, but death isn't the end at all. Not even close. Christ saved everyone. You, your daughter, etc. Nothing you do will ever nullify that gift, nor will anything you do make you deserving of that gift. But THAT is the good news. That you are loved by a Father that has never and will never commit evil and that has saved you and your daughter from an eternity of sin.

[@thehulk7629]

I am so so sorry for your loss. I could not imagine how deeply sad and in despair you are and I would be too. I don’t think it’s idolatry. It’s love and that is the love Our Father has for us. Please understand that you will see her again. She is away from this evil world full of sin and He saved her from the upcoming tribulation and hard times. I will be praying for you and God’s guidance in your life. I hope you find His divine joy and love and peace. 🙏☦️

Father my biggest hurdle is the shame I feel when I sin and I have to go to confession. I have put off confession and thus the eucharist for over a month now. I am weak and half hearted, please pray that I overcome this shame and that the devil not take me out of Christ hands.

[@FatherSpyridonROCOR]

Be assured, your priest will see the humility required to confess, he will rejoice that you have been unburdened from your sin, as St John Chrysostom reminds us, the devil has convinced to be bold in our sinning and tremble when we confess, but it should be the other way round. Go to confession as soon as you can, find ealing and forgiveness. God bless you

It seems like every time I see a video from Fr. Spyridon, it’s exactly what I need to hear. God’s providence has a at work in this, despite what my own unbelief tries to deny. I’ve noticed that one of the things I’ve struggled to sacrifice to God is my cynicism. I have a cynical heart that often struggles to accept the magnitude of human existence, and that it is no mere accident or coincidence. That, as a man, I am living in the greatest story ever told, and it’s God’s story. That I am participating in something magnificent beyond my comprehension, and that failure to participate in it brings horror beyond comprehension. Lord, have mercy on me, a sinner.

I have been half hearted for a long time, struggling, yes, but nonetheless half hearted. Over drinking, sexual immorality, fits for rage, cursing, and definitely Not Loving My Neighbor. The other night, The Lord allowed me to experience a terrible vision. I steered face to face with a real demon. He looked wholly dedicated to evil. He had a human face and miniature goats ears. We had eye contact. I saw his expression. It was cold as ice. When I awakened I understood that I had been in the presence of a real demon and this was obviously as a result of my half heartedness towards our Merciful Father in Heaven. I have understood clearly now that by daily drinking alcohol I have been flirting with the devil, flirting with death and damnation. The Lord knew I needed this shock to shake me out of my half heartedness. We all get what we ask for. May our daily actions not ask for death and damnation. Let us run to the Loving arms of our Savior, Jesus Christ and worship Him with daily obedience lest our hearts be extinguished and our souls die. We need to be the new creatures that He created us to be, filled with His Love and walking with Him.

I can barely even call myself half hearted. I have been real weak.

I just fell into lust. I will not give up no matter how many times i fall. Pray for me brothers and sisters.

[@Nko-pi2sn]

When thinking about lust, pray right away, don’t even think about it or procrastinate on lust, just bow in prayer right away

I don’t know if this will help, but in confession I once told a priest that I so often fail when fighting impure thoughts. He replied, “You don’t fight impure thoughts. You replace them.”

May the pain of the world be taken from us in the loving arms of our father, in the glory of his son and the sacrifice he made for us and in the name of the holy spirit that compels us to do the good works of the almighty. Pray for us, ora pro nobis, magnificat anima mea dominum, in nomine patris, et fili, et spiritus sancte, amen.

I am half-hearted😢 I came back to my faith less than a year ago, and i have so much to go. I ask and pray to let go of all those things that are not needed for my salvation. I want to love God and be his servant 100%.

thank YOU LORD JESUS CHRIST for all YOUR faithful people

I’m a half hearted Christian. God will tell/ask me “let’s read the Bible”, “let’s talk” and more. But I say to myself I’m playing a game or something else. To be honest I feel ashamed sometimes. God please forgive me, a sinner.

[@Katthechristian]

I haven't even been half-hearted lately--maybe quarter hearted at best. Just adrift, lost in sin, floating like a jellyfish without conviction, humbleness, forgiveness or love in my heart for Christ. (It's the norm in today's world.) I'm turning towards Christ again no matter the difficulty. Lately I have been seeking validation from others although I tell myself otherwise, I have been deceiving myself. All I need is God's commands by re-cultivating my relationship with Christ--that is all. I don't need others validations. I just need to re-cultivate my relationship with Christ. Amen. All glory to Christ and His followers.
