To me, I would simply pray and ask the Spirit. There is no lie that comes from it. Nice topic.

Thank you for sharing this.

Nice post. Sister stay in the Word and in prayer. Let the Father work the rest of it out for you.

It is an overwhelming and loving experience for me.

Deadliest Catch and Eureka are about the only ones I watch regularly. I mostly read and study.

Hello and welcome to Worthy Tabby cat, you are loved and welcome here. I have never struggled with suicide so I cannot say that I know how you are feeling. Thank you for the honesty in your post and there is never anything wrong with posting how ya feel or any questions you might have. Take heart little sister, you are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14) with a purpose (Jeremiah 29:11) to live and prosper under the Lord's love (Matthew 11:28-30) and mighty hand. Stick around friend, grow with us and have some laughs. We have chat as well, if you haven't been there yet I would encourage you to go and fellowship with others online. Remember who you are in Christ (Ephesians 1:3-8, Ephesians 2:10 and many more) and don't ever forget that. You have my friendship and prayers friend.

I believe that we face trials to prepare us for things ahead. Trials have a wisdom filled way of "seasoning" us.

Nice post. Pride can make us easily forget what we see when we walk away from the mirror. It can keep us from making peace when it is so much easier to forgive and move on and even keep us from knowing a person without even giving them a chance. Love is easy when we give it unconditionaly.

Yep. It is a shame that even Christians don't show each other this kind of unconditional love sometimes

Thank you for sharing this.

Yeah, it does make a person wonder a few other things.

I am sorry for your disheartenment sister. It can be very hard to tolerate these things, more so when they come from loved ones. Behold also the ships, which though they be so great, and are driven of fierce winds, yet are they turned about with a very small helm, whithersoever the governor listeth. Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth! And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell. For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind: But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God. Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be. Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter? Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries? either a vine, figs? so can no fountain both yield salt water and fresh. James 3:4-13

Hello and welcome to Worthy. The strongest thing you can do for them is pray. It is up to the Father as to wether or not He chooses to draw them near, but I can understand your disheartenment. Friend who are they to tell you what a true believer is and is not? They have no relationship with the Lord so I wouldn't let their words strike any worry or fear in your actions. You have changed in your heart and are seeking out the Lord's will and direction for your life. It is admirable for you to want them to see the light you have in you now by your actions. But, remember that your changes have come out of love and obedience to the Father. They have no faith in what you know to be true, so they react accordingly. The strongest thing you can do is pray for them. I know this is easier said than done but don't let them steal your joy. I would simply tell them that you have beautiful light shining in you now. That you love them but they should respect how you feel. Stay in the Word friend, stay in prayer and forgive them of any hard feelings you may have about the way they treat you. You are in my prayers.

Nice post.

That's a good one sister, as well as Professor Moriarty.

Nice post.
