Hey man, you know what? God could have build a castle in the sky so that when everybody would step out of their house they could look up and say wow, that's where God lives! Instead, he chose to live inside of you so everybody around you can say, wow, that's where God lives!! He loves you man and not everything that happens in your life comes from Him. He is charge but not in control like any other government and Kingdom where despite them ruling and reigning stuff still happens as the Word says, that He (Jesus) must reign untill he has put all enemies under His feet & the last enemy wil be death. Keep looking up brother..He loves you dearly. You are His son if you are in Christ! You are destined 2 reign in life with Him! Get to know who you are in Him, your God given identity! Watch Dan Mohler for example. You will love this guy and experience a lift. God bless!

1 Corinthians 10:13
There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
Isaiah 46:4
And even to your old age I am he; and even to hoar hairs will I carry you: I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver you.

Listening to Christian music helps...sometimes even singing, just to let it all out of your heart, and you'll feel better.
You still have a reason to sing...
Love, your sis

"Before The Morning" - Josh Wilson
Do you wonder why you have to,
Feel the things that hurt you,
If there's a God who loves you,
Where is He now?
Maybe, there are things you can't see
And all those things are happening
To bring a better ending
Some day, some how, you'll see, you'll see
Would dare you, would you dare, to believe,
That you still have a reason to sing,
'cause the pain you've been feeling,
Can't compare to the joy that's coming
So hold on, you got to wait for the light
Press on, just fight the good fight
Because the pain you've been feeling,
It's just the dark before the morning
My friend, you know how this all ends
And you know where you're going,
You just don't know how you get there
So just say a prayer.
And hold on, cause there's good who love God,
Life is not a snapshot, it might take a little time,
But you'll see the bigger picture
Would dare you, would you dare, to believe,
That you still have a reason to sing,
'cause the pain you've been feeling,
Can't compare to the joy that's coming
So hold on, you got to wait for the light
Press on, just fight the good fight
Because the pain you've been feeling,
It's just the dark before the morning
Yeah, yeah,
Before the morning,
Yeah, yeah
Once you feel the way of glory,
All your pain will fade to memory
Once you feel the way of glory,
All your pain will fade to memory
Memory, memory, yeah
Would dare you, would you dare, to believe,
That you still have a reason to sing,
'cause the pain you've been feeling,
Can't compare to the joy that's coming
Would dare you, would you dare, to believe,
That you still have a reason to sing,
'cause the pain you've been feeling,
Can't compare to the joy that's coming
Com'n, you got to wait for the light
Press on, just fight the good fight
Because the pain you've been feeling,
It's just the hurt before the healing
The pain you've been feeling,
Just the dark before the morning
Before the morning, yeah, yeah
Before the morning
You still have a reason to sing...
Love, your sis

Then I will go to the altar of God, To God my exceeding joy; And upon the lyre I shall praise You, O God, my God. Why are you in despair, O my soul? And why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God, for I shall again praise Him, The help of my countenance and my God.

I was you as a teenager. You know what? It's okay to feel like you feel. Honestly. You aren't weird, you're not faulty. You haven't committed a crime. Your pain just outweighs your ability to cope with it right now. And that's okay. I don't have all the answers, man, cause I don't even know all the questions yet. And you know what? That's okay too. You're not alone kid. Sadness is a real, valid human experience for us: some more than others, I guess. The trick is knowing what to do with it. Share it man: create from it, reach out to somebody. The next time you look at someone and you see sadness in their eyes, remember how it feels. Show them you know and care. Because they aren't weird either. They're not wrong, and they're not stupid. And they're not ignorant and they're not criminals. They're just sad. Like you. Like me.
Remember the thoughts and feelings you have towards someone else when they are sad, because I can guarantee you that there are so many people out there who see your sadness and feel that way about you. The world is kinder than you think if you can give it space to show you.

Hey partner, listen to me. If you really are going to do this, then call this number. Someone WILL be at the other end: 1 800-273-8255 You dont want to die do you?. You are just going through a rough patch in your life. I know, cause I have been there. Im a teenager too. Listen to me, this is all just a test. Its a mental, emotional, and physical test, and if you fail it, you die. Think about that for a minute. No more ice cream, fun times. No family, nothing. Suicide is not the way you want to get to heaven and meet Jesus. Think about what you want to do as a career. You can't to that if your dead. You are strong. You know you are. You can get through this. Just dig down and tell yourself that. I know you can, but more importantly, Jesus knows that you can too. He put you here for a reason. Dont never ever forget that.

Dude, it doesn't help anything. Its a feeling, it'll pass. Look over the post on here, all the people that posted cared enough about YOU to post, and help you out. think about your brother. think about Jesus Christ, who cared enough to suffer for you. "Throw all your cares on Christ because he cares about you." I Peter 5:7 Even when you feel alone, Christ is standing beside you.
You've been here before. I'm sorry to hear that you are still having issues. But there's a reason for that.
James 4:4
Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.
1 John 2:15
Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
John 15:19
If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.
John 12:25
Anyone who loves their life will lose it, while anyone who hates their life in this world will keep it for eternal life.
2 Corinthians 10
That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
***
That feeling that you don't belong to this world? It's because you don't belong to this world. The fact that you suffer in it says you must be doing something right
I was 17 when I took a bottle of pills. Though there's never a day goes by that I didn't wish it had worked, I've promised God I wouldn't try it again. It's just really not my call to make. Every day someone dies who doesn't want to and every day I pray God take me instead. But He doesn't. Or hasn't so far.
That's 'cause as much as I don't want to be here, He has used me in remarkable ways at times. Though I can't seem to make a difference in my own life, God's used me to make a difference in others. And that was worth sticking around for, I suppose. That's kinda what this battle is all about - making a difference in others for God, no matter what this world throws at you to try and stop it. To stop you.
These days, instead of heading for the pills I look at those verses above and remember that I'm not supposed to like my time here. And that the more the rulers of this world throw at me, the more they're afraid of what God might do thru me. And that gives me cause to not reach for the razor blades.
God bless you - Father set angels around Levi to bear him up, and even more to occupy the enemy around him. Gift him with wisdom and understanding, and open his eyes to those who bear against him. Fill him with Your Spirit and empower him to bear against the flesh, whether his own or that ruling others. And let him see value in himself according to those potentials You see in him.
Amen

You should talk to a friend or family member and tell them you're depressed. Dave Mirra the famous BMX freestylist just commited suicide yesterday, he was a big inspiration of mine. If you're young you probably know who he was, like the Tony Hawk of bikes. It shattered the whole community around him. You have an entire lifetime to deal with these things trust me you dont want to throw it all away now.
