Hi seeker33,
I know it can be confusing at times between spirituality and religion. We can certainly mention God here because God is a central belief in many many religions (not all of course). What we cannot discuss is Jesus, Buddha, the Bible or any other religious writing. Specific quotes from the Bible or other religious writing is not allowed either.
Unfortunately there was a time when we had huge upsets in this forum because some members thought they could push their religious beliefs & doctrine on other members. It got to the point where we had to make the change to keep this forum open for those who wished to ask for prayers (which is fine) and those who wanted to discuss spirituality. Spirituality can come from whatever one feels connected with, it doesn't have to be about anything religious.
You have received some help here so at this time, I'm going to close this thread.
If you have any questions, please feel free to pm me or anyone on the Community Support Team.
Thanks
