Thank you for that Debbi, I am suicidal, or at least I was... On tuesday I went into my room and put a razor to my wrist and was about to slit my wrists. I was about to when I felt like someone put their arms aroung me and just was comforting me. I know that God saved my life because he has a plan for me...

God Bless,
Liz

I know that was God.....When I attempted 3 months ago today (kinda weird huh) I felt like someone wrapped their arms around me and I got this overwhelming chill down my arms.....God works in mysterious ways

I just think the Lord would say "I had a plan for your life, but you just wouldn't wait on my timing. My word says Trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not unto thine own understanding. Why didn't you trust me?"

On the chat box an interesting question came up the other day, can a person actually be a christian and commit suicide. It was said that if the person was truly saved they would know the Lord in their heart and have no reason to kill themself. They could not have been truly saved to start with if they plan to or carry out killing themself. Anybody got anything to comment on this. I don't know one way or the other because when I'm really depressed, I sometimes also will doubt my salvation, too.

My Mood
I have the same thoughts debbi, I have written 3 suicide notes myself and was lucky enough to have someone that cared about me call the ambulance. I have doubts about my salvation at times too. It does get tough trying to please yourself and everyone else at the same time. I still have these nagging, self injury, and destructive thoughts. I am working thru them and will triumph over them someday.

brenda_pulido is on a distinguished road
I read this and yes, Im one of those hatred suicidal people christians dont want to see.



My grandfather makes muy life so difficult to live. I have even considering giving my life to Satan if that is what I have to do to end this horrible emotional pain. No one seems interested in a suicidal person. Christians dont even care and there are so many weird culta outside my house waiting for me.



I left christianity and sometimes have fun reading this. I no longer believe in God as He couldnt handle my pain. The gods of wood seem to have more power. Even Satan is having more power over my life than God Himself. Why? Because two reasons: a) God is not interested in me and itīs a matter of Will b) He has no power.



I chose b).

I'm not suicidal, I just asked. Just getting depressed is all. I am trying to be cheerful about Christmas although I have to work Christmas Day. Also, family members decided to have Christmas at mom's Thurs. instead of yesterday and forgot to tell me. I know, at least I have a job and a family. I don't even mention anymore hardly if I did feel suicidal at church, I would get condemned for even mentioning depression so I know the feeling of not wanting to talk to christians at times about depression either. I could get in trouble if I cut though. Good thing it is winter and I can wear long sleeves if i did cut. Nobody wants cutter around either Brenda so don't feel bad.
