This is so very sad, and really hits close to home. My son and I went on the same tour at the same location about two years ago. It really makes you think about the "what if's". I send prayers for all involved in this tragedy.

My heart breaks to hear this news. I have a 14 year old son, and cannot imagine life without him or any of my children. The pain this poor child must have been feeling, to take such drastic measures, is simply heartbreaking. I send prayers to his family, friends, and all involved in this tragic loss. I include you, dearest Catsmeow, as I know this is so terribly hard on you as well. May God bless, comfort, and heal you all.

Hi Turtletwo, When so many people gather together, there is most certainly going to be a clash of personalities. Some will see their view as the favorable one and others will not. We must simply focus on the Lord and do what is right in His eyes through His Word. All we can do is our best. We won't please everyone all the time, but then again, we don't have to. Many blessings to you, Always.

That's Awesome!! We're both March babies...mine was 5 days ago. I hope you have an absolutely wonderful birthday!! God bless.

Hi TJ, First of all, I can guarantee that you are much stronger than you realize. God is perfect, He makes no mistakes. Turn to Him and put your trust in Him. Never give up! Just as MorningGlory said, call a hot line, seek professional help for your feelings. There is no shame in that. We, here at Worthy, welcome you, and please know that you are in my heart and prayers.

One of the surest ways to block her receptiveness to you is to push too hard. Nineteen is a very tender age. The time when life seems to throw everything at you and you have to figure it all out. All you can do is express your concerns, and let her know that you're there for her. You seem to have a strong friendship with her, and I'm sure that means a lot to you both. God bless you for being such a caring person.

Hi Aaron11, Welcome to Worthy. Don't be so worried about your doubts, but rather focus on what you do know. Doubt your doubts and believe your beliefs! God manifests himself to us everyday in many different ways. I think that sometimes we are just so caught up in everyday "life" that we fail to recognize His presence. Remember, just like the sun, we don't always see it or feel it, but yet it is Always there. HE is Always with you God Bless.

It reminds me of the old idiom... "You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink" There are many stubborn people in this world. All any of us can do is pray for God's guidance with our words. Many blessings to you, LadyKay.

Amen!

That's awesome, and yes, quite remarkable. Of course, God's plans always are!

Amen! Same for me.

I think people have problems with self perception because it is much easier to focus on someone else's inadequacies than to face our own. C.S. Lewis was right, it's funny how some people only see and hear what they want regardless of what's being said.

Blessings to you both, OO. Marriages like that are getting harder and harder to find these days.

Sending prayers...

I agree with some of the other comments. Disruption should not be allowed at ANY of the campaign rallies. It gets very tiring to always hear of individuals causing discord to further their agenda. It seems people certainly adhere to the old proverbial "squeaky wheel getting the grease." In the long run, is it more beneficial to act poorly and cause contention for a moment of instant gratification, or better to build a relatioship based on mutual respect?

God is the Almighty Physician, and absolutely heals, but sometimes that healing comes in the form of doctors, counselors, and medication. HIS grace can provide us with a life-changing counseling session or the right medication to regulate brain chemistry, or both. There's no shame in seeking help. It doesn't make us any less of a Christian believer, nor does it diminish our value in the eyes of God. There are many people here that can help you, as well. You are a part of our family and always remember... You are not alone. You are in my heart and prayers...God Bless.

My thoughts exactly. May he rest in peace.

The advancements in technology are great, but as for me at this point in time, I would not trust a computer to drive my car. Also, as Jeff pointed out, I certainly am not comfortable with the potential of it being hacked.

God asks us to forgive our offenders, but He never told us to keep trusting them or continue to associate with them. We never have to keep ourselves open to any type of abuse or lack of respect. We are all entitled to healthy boundaries. Praying for a happy, and peaceful outcome for you, Tigger. God bless

Amen

I am so sorry. I can empathize. Please know you are in my prayers.

God's abundant blessings to you, Paul. I look forward to your return. Take care.....
