Roger that, I shall,

I infer that you probably aren't wanting to say what's going on, I'm concerned for you though.

I sincerely hope for the best! Don't be afraid.

I can do that if it consoles you. -- But remember, God's wonders are not magic tricks.

Actually, believing in a deity, in some great and loving creator, trying to be kind and trying to be a good person does not , technically, mean 'being religious'.

'Being religious' is following the rules and teachings of an organization or group.

For instance, the 'Desiderata' or the 'Serenity Prayer' are two of the most real and meaningful guides we can all understand and follow, but they do not constitute anything like a form of catechism.


I do pray for your recovery and for you to feel peace while you are in the hospital, 3subjectnotebook; being hospitalized can be an intimidating experience.

There's no atheists in emergency rooms.

I am a bit religious and i believe God will hear our prayers at the right time. Just keep on praying to Him and if he won't answer right away, wait patiently because i am sure He had heard you and just waiting for the perfect time to give you what you want or the best thing for you.

Here we are, a Catholic and a Protestant, gathered together at somebody's sickbed.
