Yoga, when translated, literally means union of mind, body & spirit

Andrew Bell — Fri, 11 May 2012 20:24:56 GMT

As a person with type 1 diabetes, do you feel union with your mind, body & spirit -- even if you're not one to go to a yoga class or do the physical yoga postures?

I'd love to hear about your yoga practice or what you do to feel union with your mind, body & spirit.

Pray for me?

Hi, I'm sarah and lately I have ben having a darn-awfull time with my diabetes. I had a hypoglicemic seizure a couple of weeks ago and on easter weekend I had to stay in Children's hospital because I was ill. I'm starting to get ill again (My doctor wants me to keep my eyes open for signs of an apendistice.) I hope that you will pray for me seeing that I'm having a hard time. Please give a prayer to God, Jesus, St. Jude or anybody that you feel worthy of asking my wellbeing.

Please note that I'm catholic ;)

Hello people. I am 16 years old and am participating in a Step Out: Walk to cure Diabetes. My team has a donation goal of $1,000 and currently have $270.00. I am not asking for your money, though that would be generously accepted, I just want prayers. Almost all of my team are christians, including myself. I have prayed about joining this walk for months, and feel God nudging towards this. If you want, email me at kinnedydurham@gmail.com If you want to donate please go to: http://main.diabetes.org/site/TR/Events/General?px=6942292&pg=personal&fr_id=7877 or http://main.diabetes.org/site/TR/Events/General?team_id=514255&pg=team&fr_id=7877. If you live in or near Baton rouge, I urge you to walk with me.

Many thanks and Blessings,

Kinnedy Durham

Calling all Christians

ksum — Thu, 17 Feb 2011 18:24:10 GMT

Are there any Christians on this site? If so were you DX'd before or after Christ came into your life? For me I was already committed to Christ and I feel for me it has made my journey easier. What about everybody else?

After six long months of changing my entire life and trying to understand how to deal with my diabetes diagnosis GOD has helped me bring my A1C's from 13.1 to 5.9. I could not have done this by myself. Thanks be to GOD!!

Is T1 what God wanted for me?

ksum — Sat, 03 Jul 2010 02:36:44 GMT

I have wondered about this. My faith has not left me or wavered but it can be challenging. I had a great relationship with Jesus before I was diagnosed this year in February and I do believe it made it easier for me to accept. I feel like sometimes he has given me this burden but I don't know why. Any one have any thoughts?

3 am Prayers

BlessedMom — Wed, 26 May 2010 02:38:13 GMT

It has been 7 months since my little girl was diagnosed with T1. Lots of thing have gotten easier for us now that diabetes has become our norm. However, the one thing I can't seem to get used to is getting up at night to check her BS. My alarm goes off at 3am and I have to drag myself out of bed, stumble down the hall, fiddle with a flashlight and work her glucometer. I usually kneel besided her bed while I'm doing all this. I decided a few nights ago that as much as I hate getting up in the middle of the night, I would take this opportunity while on my knees, to pray for all of those up in the middle of the night checking their own BS or their child's. So, if you are in up at an inhuman hour dealing with glucometers, flashlights and correction doses, know that you are being prayed for.

All Dogs Go To Heaven

Our very old dog died last night--after so many years of giving on this earth-I would like to think she is in heaven with family that have passed.I have heard animals have no soul--maybe they do.Heaven surly has room for tender hearted creatures.

Christianity

Taylor Renee Ryerse — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 01:26:00 GMT

Does this mean that we can talk about our own beliefs, as well as talk about others? Or do we just stay away from those we don't agree with, such as Islam for me. (no offense to those of you who are Islamic.) Is this for all religion? Can we fell free to express our beliefs? Or do we have to watch what we say, not that I would try to yell at a Catholic or something. I am good friends with some Catholic people. But I think we should be able to express what we practice with religion as well, I am a Christian. So I will be replying in a manner of Christianity to all of the posts that I will reply too. If that bothers anyone, please let me know. I do not want to hurt anyone's feelings, but I would like to be able to tell my own as well. That is understandable right? :) Thanks for looking! I joined because Christianity is more than a religious choice for me, it is the way I live my life, and the way I always will. Christians should be Christ like, so b4 I go and reply to others comments or whatever, I'm gonna be sure who to say what to if you know what I mean :)

See ya!

Direction?

So, here we are. In this group. And we're all here for...something.... But what? I'm certainly not here to impose, but I'm not here to sit idly by, either.... I know I can't let CHLjoe have all the fun! ;)

Socrates once said of religion: "There are two paths: discourse, and shouting. One leads to enlightened understanding, and a fuller knowledge of the true Order, the other leads to anger, resentment, and rejection of the Right, and the Good."

Though he was not, himself, an orthodoxy man, I do believe he's hit the heart. And I look forward to a discourse in this group that helps us all to understand, better and fuller, the knowledge of the Right and the Good that governs our lives.

To Gina, t

Thanks for creating this group! It's a good idea, especially in light of recent events.

To Joe,

I look forward to butting heads, man. But I'm gonna try and keep it less personal, too. Touche, and good luck.
