I've been praying for you too, but whenever i tried to post here i got that dreaded database error. I can only guess that God wished for me to just pray for you and not post anything.
I'm glad you're doing better. I'm scared I'm gunna kill myself one day.

I'm glad you're doing better. Absence is to love as wind is to a flame. It extinguishes the little, it ignites the great.
Life is a test. It is only a test. Had this been real life you would have have been instructed where to go and what to do.
When i argue with reality I lose.....But only 100% of the time.
Once you've decided on a course of action, only you can finish it. As long as you remember that, there's nothing you can't accomplish.

I was reading your thread, just before the light broke through (but I didn't know it then), and suddenly I got one of those database errors. I was like, "Oh no! What am I going to do? I won't know how things turned out for over two minutes!" I was kind of anxious. So I went and prayed for you and was very relieved when I was able to read on. All that said, HALLELUIAH!

my pastor hasn't e-mailed me back...he'll probably tell my parents...i don't know what i'll do then...i don't know what to do NOW.
God, why are you far from me when i need you most?! do You not care, Lord?!
i really do feel like giving up...

if you're cutting, it's probably better for you in the end that your parents know, as much as you hate it. if email doesn't work with the pastor, go to him in person. do something, anything besides cutting yourself.
did you ever think that maybe God wants you on this planet for a reason?

O Ct!! Don't feel that way! Don't let the Devil steal your hope or life away 
Jesus DOES care for you, that's why He isnt letting you die. He wants you to trust in Him. He loves you so much ct! And ct, I think it was for the best that you told your pastor. Even if he tells your parents, atleast then you will have two people who will constantly look out and care for you. They are you parents ct, and they love you so much as well.

Hey, c.t.girl, what are you trying to do?
I've never seen such a long thread in this forum before and haven't gotten the chance to read through everything! You know, you've got to be of great worth in order for ppl to respond this much. If you don't agree with me, I'm going to pray until you do.

God's who you'll dissapoint. Not to mention your parents, friends, and everyone else on CAA. God doesn't want you to die Chris and I know you don't want to either. You need to stop feeling sorry for yourself and get some help. So talk to your pastor as soon as possible. Continue to call him, email him, whatever it takes but you need to get some assistance soon. And honestly you should tell your parents before he does. It will probably be easier for both you and your parents discuss it first rather than if someone else broke it to them. I'll continue to pray for ya but ya gotta help yourself too get out of this too Chris.

[color="DarkOrange"]"The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things... hey... the good things don't always soften the bad things; but vice-versa the bad things don't necessarily spoil the good things and make them unimportant." -11th Doctor
"The advice I like to give young artists, or really anybody who’ll listen to me, is not to wait around for inspiration. Inspiration is for amateurs; the rest of us just show up and get to work. If you wait around for the clouds to part and a bolt of lightning to strike you in the brain, you are not going to make an awful lot of work. All the best ideas come out of the process; they come out of the work itself. Things occur to you. If you’re sitting around trying to dream up a great art idea, you can sit there a long time before anything happens. But if you just get to work, something will occur to you and something else will occur to you and something else that you reject will push you in another direction. Inspiration is absolutely unnecessary and somehow deceptive. You feel like you need this great idea before you can get down to work, and I find that’s almost never the case." - Chuck Close[/color]

I was just skimming through the forum, and this thread caught my eye...
I'm very new to CAA (joined like 3 days ago XD), so I don't really know anyone on this site. But I felt led to make an encouraging comment.
Don't let the enemy get the better of you. Keep in mind that Heaven is your destination, along with anyone else that commited themself to Jesus Christ. Falling into the enemy's hands will only lead to eternal condemnation.
Keep Heaven in mind. God and Jesus always. Your family, love ones, and friends. What you have grateful to be for (because MANY PEOPLE in the world are suffering and are still trying their best to make it through), and a very bright future in eternal paradise with Jesus.
God bless you! ^_^
