Re: Prayer for God's Provision

Yes, and no. It is complicated. I am okay for the time being, but I am seeking God's provision that I might sooner obey God more fully.

Re: Russian Orthodox demand that Apple change its logo

Not sure exactly to whose post you are responding, but to try to be entirely clear: I was not saying that because of St Savva's practice of eschewing apples that apples must be bad or evil.
