Reply to comment by mouserat_hat in LPT: when taking something out of the oven always use two oven mitts even if you plan on only using one hand. If you accidentally drop the hot pan your instinct will be to grab it with your other hand which you’ll be glad is wearing an oven mitt! by [deleted]
Is that poor form on this sub? Serious question. This was my first post

It definitely could have been God if you interpret it that way. Some people believe that God has a team including angels and saints that intercede on your behalf. Maybe it was a higher being and not necessarily God. Or maybe it was a demon or a pan falling inside a closet. Who knows? It’s whatever you make it to be. Best to you.

>I believe in god and religion and everything (Im muslim), but how do we know that theres a god? Theres nothing proven that there is one.
You just made a contradictory statement. That's OK, it's real. Ask this "God " to reveal himself to you. If he is real, he will, in his own way, so you will know. Surely a God would do that? Now go to sleep in peace.

In general dont ever catch anything in the kitchen. When working in a kitchen good chefs will tell you this. Save teh plate, glass, spatula sure great. But trying to save a hot item or a knife NOPE. So to make muscle memory work right in those quick automatic reactions just dont catch things. I would usually put out my foot to try and save it from the fall though. Works really well for smartphones.

So God decided to prove to YOU he exists by a loud bang in the middle of the night, sounds logic. No hard feelings but damn you're easy to fool.

Yeah man i said its not possible for a squirrel or a person. I did not say it was god. I said its not possible because the sound was super loud as if a tire has blown. A rock or a squirrel would make way less sound.

Why would it not be a message? Even if it has an explanation why it happened, the fact it had this effect on you is a sign.

You said;
"It is not possible, everyone is sleeping and animals dont usually get into our house, theres nothing to be knocked over outside except our patio stuff which are super heavy to move. Also, as soon as i heard the bang i rushed to check, checked all of the house, and checked outside. Everything is in place and nothing seems to be unusual."

Reply to LPT request: How to reduce my anxiety? by quantafolia
Exercise. I struggled with intense anxiety most my life. Started the gym and after 2 weeks the results were better than any medication I've taken, any coping mechanism I've tried, better than meditation which was my previous go to.
In fact the improvements to my anxiety and mental health were so good I'm kicking myself for not listening to people and starting sooner.

I am also a Christian and I agree with what jaslbrown said. I don’t think you should be afraid or worry - that’s not what God would want. He gives comfort and peace. I also believe he uses circumstances to have us seek him. Please, don’t be anxious. He loves you. 🙏🏻

They may not have the disposable income for shows, or they might be homeless. No reason to shame people for that.

Also don't ask about job, health, holidays, hobbies, interests, school, or anything personal. Respect their journeys and don't hurt people! The weather is a good subject,but only in temperate climates. They may have been through a hurricane or tsunami journey.

I literally did not decide, i dont know where i said i decided it was god? I just said "could it have been god?" It was a question. I said it couldnt be a person throwing a rock, etc, because my house is far from other houses and the road. It is gated and i live on a 3 acre land. Thats why i said how could a person throw a rock, etc...

Very true!
Is there anyone that can bring you a noise machine or headphones? Or how about a tv with music channels in the room?
I used to work at a hospital and the tv choices were super limited for patients. And Inalways felt bad for patients whos rooms were by the nursing desk, it was always loud there.

I think it's the way you have already decided it was God and won't accept that it wasn't God so it's like, why did your even make this post if you were just gonna reply to everyone with "no it couldn't have been someone throwing a rock at my house. I checked. It was God. Also I'm not religious I'm just Muslim (religious) and believe in Allah (religious)."
