Prayer Circles

We're sorry you feel so badly right now. It sounds as if you would benefit from talking to a caring person who is trained to help. We have three resources you could try. We hope you will contact one of them as soon as possible. You deserve to get help, and to get it sooner rather than later.

1. If you are in the U.S., call 1-800-SUICIDE any time, day or night. When you call this free number, you will be connected immediately to a caring, trained counselor in your region. The sooner you make this call, the better. (helplines worldwide)

2. If you can hold on for a few days, free anonymous crisis counseling is available by e-mail from an international charity called The Samaritans. Send an e-mail to jo@samaritans.org and you will receive a caring response within 24 hours.

3. There is a website you may find helpful, called Suicide: Read This First.

You are in our prayers.

As a sit here and write this to you, I am crying with you. I know exactly how you feel. You, like I, need to know that everything is possible through Christ. God loves you and he will never let you bear more than you can handle. Maybe this is just a test. I bet God will take super-extra good care if you just hold on and be patient. He will not forsake you. trust me! I have been there and when I held on another day, I saw what I would have missed. Oh Losrd, I pray that you help my sister hold on. I pray that you give her a sign that will give her a mustard seed of hope that will grow to more fruitfulness. Amen.

Pls. leave an abusive relationship; go to a shelter, get out before it gets worse. Perhaps this is not what you want to hear, but nobody should be abused. It is better to be lonely alone, than lonely with someone.
I PRAY that GOD guides you and gives you the strength to do what is right.
My prayers are with you.
May GOD BLESS
