I am new to this board, although I've visited it a handful of times. I had turned a blind eye to God in recent months, and I have been contemplating suicide for some time now. I was sure of my decision until I decided to come here. I did not know what I was prepared for, nor what I was expecting to find. However, I can honestly say that all I've done was read. I read what you all have had to say about a great many things, I listened to the most awesome (in the biblical sense of the word) music some of you have posted links to, and I have read the scriptures you've cited. I am brought to tears. God has reminded me through you brothers and sisters that my worries are small, my follies are my own, my prayers are heard, and my loneliness an illusion. Praise be unto Almighty God, Elohim, El Shaddai, Jehova Jireh, the Christ, the Messiah, our Savior and Redeemer. And thanks be unto all of you who are better men and women than I for receiving in you strength from God for your faith. Thank you. Praise God. Shalom.
