QuestionHow do I maintain faith after prayer and avoid thinking about the problem I have prayed for?Community AnswerAfter praying, say, "In faith I receive the answer to this prayer." Then thank God for hearing your prayer. Read Mark 11:24. Praise God for the answer as though it has already happened, and soon enough you will see it manifest. If the problem is concerning someone that you need to forgive, make sure you pray for them as you would want someone to pray for you. Do this whenever they come to mind. This will not only free your heart from any bitterness, but it will free them to receive blessings from God. Jesus prayed for those who crucified Him.

QuestionIf I'm Christian and in a relationship, like boyfriend and girlfriend, is it okay to kiss, or is it a sin?Community AnswerKissing is absolutely not a sin! You might get into questionable territory if the way you're kissing is super unchaste (like, kissing while lying on top of each other or kissing body parts that should be reserved for marriage), that's not so good because it could lead you into sin, but otherwise? Of course not! Kissing is a beautiful way to celebrate chaste relationships.

QuestionAm I allowed to convert an atheist into a Christian?Community AnswerNo one is allowed to convert anyone to anything. If you want to share your beliefs with others, that is fine, as long as they want to hear it. (1) The best way to 'share' your beliefs is to show by example. If you call yourself a Christian, are you living your life according to God's laws in every detail, which culminate in the two mentioned by Jesus in Matthew 22:37-40 (2) Pray for this person, their troubles, their fears and leave the 'converting' to God. Pray directly to God, through Jesus, i.e. in the name of Jesus.
