not really sure... what I have learned form studying about the spiritual side is... spirits want to inhabit a living being..not an object... yet they can be around the object waiting for a person to use it ....How true that is I am not sure.\n The bible says...always  and only...spirits in people or a living being (pigs)

I have a similar situation. I think you are doing the right thing so far.\nI suggest that you pray (don't underestimate the power of prayer) and that you ask God to show you how to show this person His love.\nI am finding it helpful to keep open non-threatening discussion about both of our beliefs (she used to think all Christians were unreasonable and couldn't think for themselves). And I am trying to show her (through actions, more than words) the positive effect God has on my life - like how I treat people, and that I can rely on God.\nI really hope that you can get some where with your friend. I'll pray for you, and your friend. God Bless.

When God was preparing to send a soul to earth as a new life, the soul said "God, I dont wanna go. Who will protect me on this big bad earth? I will be so alone..Who will talk to me? When I will be fed up with all the sufferings and hardships on earth, on whose shoulders will I lay my burden? Who will show me my correct path? I dont wanna go"\n   God smiled and said " Dont worry! I have taken care of all these. I will be there for u whenever u need me"\n   Soul said " But how will I recognise u?"\n   God replied "I will come to u on my own, and u will call me a FRIEND. Yes, that will be my name on earth.. Friend !"\n\n   I guess u get that message...why r friends important in our lives!\nAnd yes, friends are more important to me even my own life.. They r my life-blood!

I would say what comes from the heart not from the written page.  It is more meaningful and sincere.  Your friend will be there with you in spirit as well.

"One word which brings peace is better than a thousand meaningless words." -Buddhist Scripture\n\nBe genuine, speak words of kindness, and love. Ask what you can do for them, and be glad, showing them your gladness, being able to do it.

It means "God Be With You".  It's someones way of wishing you good health and safety in your life.

I see spirituality as a way of thinking, as to say its beauty and meaning might differ for everybody. It is the ability to see everything from the level of our spirit.People are physical, mental, emotional, sexual, spiritual....all that in the same time.

You're connected to them. You must be close with this person right? It means you're tuned into each others souls. I know that sounds a little creepy but it's true. It's like having slight telepathy with this person. It happens with me and some of my friends. My bofriend too!

"Religious" = A person that subscribes to a specific faith. "Spiritual" = A person who doesn't necessarily subscribe to any faith, but who believes in a Power(s) greater than themselves and tries to live by spiritual principles. ~~~ The two aren't mutually exclusive, but can be.

My favorite word comes from the Inuktitut language - it is tujormidlarnak.  It is what you say to someone when they visit you in your home.  It sort of means "Make yourself at home", but its literal translation is "Don't be lonely".\n\nTujormidlarnak!

Byefareed,\n\nThe Holy Spirit of God is being referred to here in Isaiah 42\n\nI asked Him to come live inside my heart to give me His Wisdom, and His Guidance.\n\nIt is a wonderful thing to feel the presence of God that loves me.\n\nHe loves you too and He will come and dwell in you too if you ask Him.\n\nHe Loves You, and wants to be your friend!

hi, first i want to confess that i am weak in english and i read your question thrice to understand the meaning. forgive me if my answer seems to be different from what you have asked.\nyou need to know the difference between religion and spirituality. religion includes customs, rites, fasting, going to the church, etc. which i think started atleast 15 yrs after the death of jesus. it took some time to build a church. furthermore jesus himself was a jew and not a christian, if we consider his religion. so, friend, the question is not your religion but your spirituality. i think your belief is enough to prove it. i feel it suffocating to practise religious rites, prayers,etc. if i am the son of Him, then why do i need to go to him "through proper channel", can't i put my request directly to him? leave it, now to discuss your problem. friend, you are in love and you are in tension. you are trying to appear religious in her way to her. friend, why are you doing so? whether you don't want to LOOSE her or you feel that she may be hurt. if the second option is the cause then you can say that you love her and if the first one is the cause then it is possesiveness and not love. in most of the cases it results in suffering and nothing else. you try to clarify it to yourself first.\nhow long will you be able to act in this way. what you actually are, will be revealed to her in some days. i think it's better to tell her the truth at RIGHT TIME(depending on her mood).\ni'm not sugggesting you any hit and run policy as you do not seem to be of that type. if needed you can contact me at aauumm_tatsat@yahoo.co.in. all the best
