Thanks. It went okay actually. I just sort of sat there but cos it was quite sensory and interactive i felt the most 'with it' I have in a while. (ive been dissociating a lot recently and can barely remember the last few weeks) So it was nice. And calm. *happy dance*
Hi everyone.
Just came to request some prayer. I really feel like now is the time to start making changes, and it's really scary getting started. The whole idea of taking action is terrifying. Changes like actively trying to recover from SI, and pushing myself to practice the things I'm learning to cope with misophonia. If you could pray for me, that would be fantastic, I really need it right now.
Ryn - I'm praying you will know God is your refuge and your strength and He will carry you when you're too tired to walk and he will fight when you're too tired to keep on fighting. Have a listen to this:
I hope things go well for you Ryn. Glad it went good clouded.
Feel like bit of a hypocrite, my faith is...weak and I'm strugglin a lot...but could ya'll pray for my best friend? She's really struggling right now and hasn't been herself at all, she's even stopped talkin to me which hurts immensely. And I need her, hopin she realizes soon isnt good to try n end friendshop with me. Thank you.
Every day the world is made a chance to change but i feel the same.
And I wonder why would i wait till i die to come alive?"
All alone the way she feels
Left alone to deal with all the pain-drenched sorrow relief
Apologies in advance for any controversy this may cause,(if it does then just ignore this post or i will delete it or whatever) but I was wondering what peoples views are on whether a person who commits suicide goes to heaven, hell or whereever? Xx
The Bible says that the only sin that is unforgivable is blasphemy against the Holy Spirit (Matthew 12). So no, suicide doesnt automatically mean hell. Its faith in God that saves you- faith is more than believing there is a God though, even the demons know God is real. Its givin your life to God. A person who committs suicide could have faith and have been livin for God but lost control/got overwhelmed.

im a stuggling christian. i also cut myself been a cutter for almost 11 years now. i believe in God without a doubt but i have trouble wrapping my head around the fact that he loves me. i always question him and i feel so horrible. i just dont understand why i had to go through what i went through and why wasnt it stopped if he loves me. why did he let me get molested, abused mentally and physically, almost raped if he loves me so much.?
because those things that happened (molestation, rape, abuse) are results of individual's actions, it was not what God intended for you. He gave humans free will. that means that we can choose to do things that he doesn't like. just like a parent who gives their child money can hope that they will use it for one thing, but the kid might use it for something else. that would displease the parent, and be against their wishes, but they wouldn't have control.... in the same way, He gave us free will. some people choose to use it for good, and that makes Him happy, and some unfortunately choose to use it to harm others. while it makes Him dreadfully sad, he can't force them to act how he wants
this is my magical medicine cabinet. Left to right they contain: courage, hope, calmness, and strength.
The magical part: They NEVER run out, so borrow some any time you want.
Glad it made sense. Thing under the posts is your signature :) Switchfoot has always been my fav band.
Jen, what Katie said. Creating humans in his image meant/means free will. There always talka bout how nothing is impossible for God..but thats not true. Its impossible for God to not be perfect, which makes many things impossible for God. Something that just came to mind is, Jesus was betrayed, abandoned, tortured, and killed- not the same thing as s. abuse, but God himself was hurt too. I've been abused too and struggle with it, I know how hard it is, I'm not making light of it or anything of the sort. Have you ever talked to a pastor/Christian counselor/someone on a prayer team/someone of the sort about it? (Someone of the sort meaning at many churches theres people who arent pastors or not even on staff but are a person people go to to talk to)

I have long-term dysthymia, interspersed with major depression. At New Year, I felt I had real insights into why my depression took the form it did - intense suicidal thoughts, and felt as if I had been given keys which would do away with it for ever. This last couple of weeks I've been really slipping, with a strong desire to self-harmand, today, a great envy for those killed in various ways, My hobby is, in fact, giving rise to even more problems in various ways and I'm really crashing.,
Hi All,
Hope everyone is well.
I'm really fragile at the moment. Can't seem to sleep enough, tired all the time.
Managing to go to work and do basic things, so thankful I have a husband who is compassionate and understanding. He's doing so much for me at the moment.
My head is full of rubbish and bad thoughts, trying to manage and cope with everything but it's hard work.
Not sure where God fits into all of this, not really connected to Him at the moment, although I do try. Husband an I read the bible daily but to me it's just words, doesn't really mean anything.
Anyway, take care all and stay safe. Praying for God's blessing over you all.
Liz
