If that was a joke it was a low down dirty 1. I am sorry to hear this Angel. You, and his family are in my thoughts. Keep strong, (forgive me I can't remember the exact location or the exact wording) but If He brings you to it, He will bring you through it. Nobody deserves to lose any one that way.

Hi Angel, You have to put your trust In God right now, things happen in life and we cannot let everything that happens bad affect us. This is the whole point of beleiveing God, as we are tested. It seems so unfair at how some have to deal with things in life, but beleieve me something good always happens in the end. Keep focussed and alert, you are to young to be down anyway. God Loves you and so do other people. You are young and have your future ahead of you. Be strong. Love Mandy x Just do positive and nice things for yourself and others.

Angel, hold on to Jesus, he is close to the broken hearted.
Sometimes our sorrow is so great it is hard to see it.
But God Our Father promises to wipe away every tear.
My prayers are with you and your friends family in Jesus.
Hope is believing in things unseen. :)
Hugs and God bless.

Thanks u guys...I really appreciate it all...Im doing everything I can right now not to think about him, today I kept myself busy at work and just kept praying to myself things would get better...it doesn't change the fact it happened but it did help a little with keeping my mind off it i guess its a step towards getting closure for him...

What a horrible story. Sorry.

Just remember that maybe everything happens for a reason, and if so, it is usually a human reason. God however, is able to use even the worst scenarios to produce incredible good. That is where we can find a source of continual testimony of His true nature, that He is good.

God bless.

angel,that is a very bad thing to have happen but know this,the word says that He will not put anything on us that we can not bear.Pray in the Spirit and let Jesus hold your hand,strengthen you and direct your steps.Jesus will never leave or forsake you,that is a fact because the bible says it is.When you are going through these trials,tests and troubles,it is on your knees crying out to God that you are your strongest,remember,God came down to us because we could not go up to Him.The word also says that weeping may endure for the night but joy cometh in the morning.You will be in my prayers as his family will,God bless and strengthen you,sister,AMEN
