Suicidal......Yes we hear it alot on this site.......Right now My life is getting worse........so bad that I thought about Suicide........There is one thing that is stoping me form doing that......Its God....Yes God.....He is the reason why I did not take my own life away........right now I feel alone and tired.....to the point were I just don't want to go on any more. The book of Isaiah chapter 40:28-31
"Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God. The Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; They will run and not grow weary, They will walk and not be faint." This passage Helps me out to see that I have to trust in God and gain his strangth....It also shows that He is with me and will not let me fall out of his hand. for that I am Gracefull that I did not take my own life away. I pray for those who are feeling Suicidal to hope in the Lord and let Him help you out of your pain and suffering. I hope that I helped those who are in pain and I ask that you pray for me as well. I am fighting to get back to God and to Soar Like the Eagles.

You are quite correct that it is upon God you must rely, Sy-san. I pray that you continue to do so because He is the source of all good things including the answers to your problems.

"When sins and fears prevailing rise
And fainting hope almost expires
Jesus to Thee I lift my eyes
To Thee I breathe my soul's desires"

"Are you not mine, my living Lord
And can my hope, my comfort die
Fixed on the everlasting word
That word which built the earth and sky"

"Here let my faith unshaken dwell
Immovable the promise stands
Not all the powers of earth or hell
Can e're dissolve the sacred bands"

An adaptation of ancient church hymns - Jars of Clay (Redemption Songs)

This song has always given me strength when life seems unbearable. Hope it does for you as well. :)

Suicide is never fun, I came out of that state a few months ago.

The one thing you have to do is just keep a connection with God...and well it seems like your doing that. But dont let the link between you two be severed.

I'll be praying.

I know exactly how you feel. I was there a 3 years ago. I still get depressed but not suicidal anymore because I have a good support group now. Have you sought help from a pastor or a councler? I will be praying for you.

Your always in my prayers Syaoran my friend :grin:

I am so glad that you have been wise and fled from suicide. Suicide is the greatest act of selfishness a person can commit. In John 17:15 Jesus said these words; “My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one.â€

But to all those who are thinking about suicide...

Suicide is the greatest act of selfishness a person can commit. But like all selfish acts, if we learn to look away from ourselves and to Jesus we can find reason and purpose for our lives once again. [I]“Looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.â€

My God Bless you in all that you do. Remember that you are someone special, and Jesus loves you very much. Lean on Jesus and he will be your friend...

What a friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilage to carry
Ev'rything to God in prayer!
Oh, what peace we often forfeit,
Oh what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry
Ev'rything to God in prayer!

Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged,
Take it to the Lord in prayer:
Can we find a friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus Knows our every weakness,
Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Are we weak and heavy laden,
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Saviour, still our refuge;
Take it to the Lord in prayer:
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in prayer;
In His arms He'll take and shield thee;
Thou wilt find a solace there.

I really wish I had some words of wisdom to impart right now, but they're escaping me. I'm so glad that you chose to keep going and that you're able to inspire others now. I'm praying.

I am so proud of you sy. You have found your outlet. Reading your bible is the best way to connect with god besides prayer. I am glad that you chose life. Most like you and I dont find and outlet. They keep it in a box that they open again and again. They think that suicide will take away the pain. That it will make everything stop. Thoughts like that runs through many people. But what they dont see is the question before them. "Where will this take me." I want to know in my heart exactly were I would go. I cannot live with a lie in my heart thinking that i will go to heaven when deep down i know that i have not reached that point. Choose your eternal home and let god find your time for peace. *hugs*

For Syaoran and all the others who sometimes feel that way... Everyday I pray for the members of CAA, first for the specifics (for those who post request) and then lastly for the general well being of all of CAA's members.

It really saddens me when I hear people go through rough times and think nothing good can come of it. But I can relate myself. Actually, I think more people could relate then what we give them credit for. For many years I've also battled the feelings loneliness. It's a tough thing to get over and I still sometimes have to battle that feelings; like I'm sure many others do to. Everyone has a tendency to feeding themselves lies that, "nobody really cares for me," but when you really look at it, there are many who really do care for y'all. It's just our sadness getting in our way of judgement. Re-assurance of being loved is always a vitual part of helping others feel better. Talking about it also helps dramatically. Holding in all our feelings only caused more pain and agony. And finally, somtimes we just need to be optimistic. If we wake up with the feeling nothing good will happen, then how can it? We already denied ourselves that oppertunity. But I know, it's easier then said.

So for everyone who may be feeling that way, you're not alone. You always have the Lord and the members here at CAA to lend a shoulder.

For all of y'all, I' ll definitely continue to keep y'all in my prayers. We all care for y'all. Just remember, we always have someone who cares
