Deuteronomy 31:8 – The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.

Deuteronomy 33:27 – The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms.

2 Samuel 22:29 – You are my lamp O Lord; the Lord turns my darkness into light.

Psalms 9:9 – The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.

Psalm 34:18, 19 – The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. (19) A righteous man may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from them all.

Psalm 55:22 – Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous fall.

Romans 15:13 – May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

1 Peter 5:7 – Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

I don't know what your situation is, and maybe I am not meant to know but you are in my prayers. I am not going to pretend to know or understand your pain eventhough I have had pain and dealing with current pain myself, but all I can tell you is the book of Psalm has really helped me get through some very rough times.

Don't let this overcome you bro, I'm so sad that you feel this way:(. I've felt suicidal in my life before...and I know it's not a nice feeling , but don't let the devil deceive you thinking you have no reason to live like he used to tell me before in my life. God loves you! Seek Him for comfort.Let Him surround you with His love.
I'll be praying for you.

To a child of God,

The best thing that we can do for you now is to be there for you. As you can see, and from a peek at your profile, you already have a lot of friends on here. There are a lot of people who care. That means a lot. God loves you, and that makes you important. People care about you, and that makes you important.

Let us know how we can help. If you would like to set up a time to go to a chat room and talk, I am sure that many on here would be willing to listen to you, and care about you and what you have to say. There are others on here who have experienced what you are going through. They may have some insight as to how they got through it, and perhaps some advice that will give you hope. You made a good first step by reaching out and letting someone know that you are in pain. Take the next step and let us fellowship with you. It will help!

Heavenly Father, please reach out to this person in need. Lighten his burden and ease his pain. Give him the strength to continue to reach out to others in his time of need. Give him hope, as we have hope, in the resurrection and love of Jesus Christ. Help us to help him. Amen

surrender to the impulse.. red... fluid... warm
feel the waves of ecstasy wash over you like a scarlet flood
going deeper into the pain... deeper into the vein
feel the cut of a 1000 old wounds resurrecting their deadly hold again

Remember the first heart beat..pumping..lifegiving...love
Feel the tears of a mother giving birth to her son like an endless stream
going deeper into the light...deeper in God's love
do you remember the first cut of the embilical cord? Do you remember the first inhaled birth of air?

within inches of the grasp of reality
fingers reach... arm outstretched... slipping on dreams unreachable
slipping from a mind unteachable

God's hands reaches out in love

the war rages on inside... the whore rages on the path of time
her vomit spews a biological waking nightmare... & slumber slams itself into me
the darkness of my eyelids... the darkness of my torment, encroaches upon me
hunting me... stalking me... mocking me...

Resist and the devil will flee

violence sustained in the chambers of remorse
brutality portrayed by the light of candles flame
the inner circle a mounting storm of vehemence
bring the ferocity closer to me... to me... me...

challenging shout
resented love
fallen angels
let the dead bury their own dead


you're in my prayers.

Dear Heavenly Father: we do not know what pain he is going through, but we come before You with broken hearts and heartfelt tears and ask for Your grace, love and healing to touch his tortured soul. Bind any darkness that would still his light from this world. Replace any thoughts of death with Your Truth and Your words of Love and Life. Lord, we place it all in Your mighty hands and ask that you give people around him the love, light and wisdom to help in this time of trouble and we have faith when You tell us that You are near those who weep. Help us to heal from our battle scars and become beacons of light to be a testimony of Your love and Your healing power. In Jesus Holy name we pray, Amen.

Im pleased you are still holding on.
Often, we recieve the greatest seed of faith when we are brought down deep, simply because the mightyest growth of faith requires deep roots.
Keep holding on to Jesus, He is holding on to you, carrying you close to His heart until you are fully planted.
From one that has known these depths of sorrow, the joy of Jesus given and perfected in such times is so great that you will rejoice and delight in His presance.
You are in my daily prayers in Jesus as long as you need, all praise and glory to God in Jesus, for the perfect given to you.

God bless.

The story is a bit long, but bear with me, it has a point.

Several years ago on a hot summer day in Florida, a little boy decided to go for a swim in a lake behind his house. As he ran toward the lake, he discarded his shoes, socks, and shirt so he would be ready to jump into the cool water. As he swam toward the middle of the lake, he was unaware that an alligator was swimming toward the shore.
As the boy’s mother watched from the window of their home, she saw her son and the approaching alligator. Terrified, she ran toward the water, yelling to her son at the top of her lungs. When he heard her warning, he turned around and swam toward the shore.
It was too late! Just as the young boy reached his mother, the alligator reached him. From the dock, the woman grabbed her son by the arms just as the alligator snatched his legs. That began an incredible tug-of-war. But even though the alligator was much stronger than the woman, she was much too passionate to let go.
As a passerby heard the woman’s screams, he stopped and shot the alligator. The boy survived, but spent many weeks in the hospital. His legs were severely scarred from the teeth of the alligator, and his arms had deep scratches where his mother’s fingernails dug into his flesh as she tried to pull him away from the alligator.
When a reporter asked to see the boy’s scars, he pulled up his pant legs to show the bite marks of the alligator. But with great pride, he showed the reporter the scars on his arms. He said, “I have them because my Mom wouldn’t let go.”

I pray for my friends in the same way, whether I have seen their face or not. You may have scars from the alligator and you may have scars from life holding on to you. The scars from the alligator will fade I promise.

hey my friend. I have been here. This is exactly where satan wants us to be. He wants us to think God does not care. or we should not be born. Don't listen to him. I did once and almost ended it.

As many people has said. God is with us. even when we do not feel him. I am reminded of the footprints in the sand. When we look at our life and see in times of trouble we only see one set of footprints. We get mad at God and say why did you leave me then when I needed you most. God politely answers. My son, it was then that I carried you.

I know it is hard to believe. But believe it. It is his promise to us. He cares for us. He loves us as a father loves his earthly child. and he will care for us!!

Listen to this beautiful music.

You sound like you were badly abused. I was molested by my father. I know deep pain and suffering, too. I have also been suicidal. Satan is attacking you. I know it's hard. Can you find someone to lay hands on you and pray for you? It will help. Do you take vitamins? Also helps. Consider antidepressants as well - nothing wrong with needing medication. It can truly help.

I pray the blood of Jesus over you, to heal you, strengthen you, uplift you, carry you through. GOD BLESS YOU. Please do not take your own life.

Hi, I know we haven't talked but you've always been in my prayers and I'll keep praying on your behalf. The devil may hate us passionately, but God loves us passionately :) You have a body of brothers and sisters right here who care about you and are praying for you

Phil 4:6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the God of peace that transcends all our understanding will guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus.
Find the things you love in life and start thanking God for them every day, even if it is just this chat room your thankful for start with that. And then the next thing you know all the bad is erased. I have been there too! I quote this verse almost every day.
Take care and God Bless

JESUS came to give you life and life to its fullest!!! But the devil came to steal, kill and destroy.. know this, we fight not against flesh and blood but against the powers, principalities and rulers of the kingdom of darkness! what you are facing right now is a level of spiritual warfare, the enemy wants you to give up on life but most of all give up on GOD and what HE sent HIS SON JESUS CHRIST to do for you and everyone else, that is to give LIFE and life to its fullest! Dont lose faith, GOD is Faithful and Just and HE will deliver you out of the chaos and troubles that are all around you!

You have hope. You wouldn't be still here if God didn't have plans for you. Satan messes with your mind, I have been there. It is out and out spiritual warfare for your life.!

It may be a fact that we go through a spiritual battle but the truth is Father, Your word says to resist the devil and he will flee, that we have the victory, that we overcome by the blood of the Lamb, and no weapon formed against us will prevail. Thank You Lord for this precious person that you delight in!

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jer 29:11

So glad you are still here! The world wouldn't be the same without you!
