We do our part with everything but its all determined by God. For example about your job, maybe there was a good reason you did not get it and something much better will come along. You should try lookin at the whole picture. hope that helps!MarjnHomerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01331096530421066392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360663844354406602.post-87446810800325218112009-05-02T14:37:00.000-05:002009-05-02T14:37:00.000-05:00I was not raised to be religious or spiritual at a...I was not raised to be religious or spiritual at all so, naturally, I have lot of doubts, suspicions, and uncertainties. I don't agree much with any particular religion or the concept of religions itself.., however to find a common spiritual ground with a group of people would be really cool.<br /><br />I guess it's just about educating yourself and finding what makes you feel the most comfortable & what feels right to you. Whether it's in an existing religion or your own personal beliefs.<br /><br />p.s.

I grew up Evangelical, but have found my version of inner peace in Buddhism. This doesn't mean I'm always peaceful, but if I'm practicing right thought/speech/action/etc... then I feel more peaceful then when I am just cruising through life unaware.Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03610469765465154107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360663844354406602.post-49004023306288797812009-04-27T01:50:00.000-05:002009-04-27T01:50:00.000-05:00I am Catholic as well.
