Serious question. I feel more and more distant to God and i feel horrible , empty , vain , nihilistic , dark and scared at many moments.. fear of atheism maybe.. Anyway pls help me with your advice and please pray for me.. My name is Danut... Also i beg you please pray for my uncle who passed away 6 weeks ago and left behind a poor familly.. He will have the 6 weeks service this weekend.. Please pray for him to have rest and be forgiven of sins.. His name is Pop Gavril.Also pray for all my departed ones and for a 2nd grade uncle who has a bad desease at his kidneys and i think he needs a kidney transfer.. His name is Lecu..

My best advice is that, if it is only possible, look for a priest and ask him for a long conversation.
God bless you and your family, Danut. Dumnezeu să te binecuvînteze.

may God guide u and protect u.
do u read the Holy Bible? it is good to read the psalms and the new testament when u are stressed.
especially saint paul's letter to the philippians is good at these times.
what do u listen to?
download some good Christian music (eg. from liturgy) onto an mp3 player or other electronic gadget and listen to it while u do chores in the house and / or when traveling to work or on long journeys.
i have some other ideas but i will send p.m. as i have seen people told off before for giving too much advice on prayer forum.
doamne ajuta.

Do not want things to turn out as they seem best to you, but as God pleases. Then you will be free from confusion, and thankful in prayer.
