I think I am back taking baby steps again it is going to be a bit rough, but I think I can rough it. God did some major work in me today as I cleaned out my closet which was very therapeutic for me

okay so this has been on my mind alot lately.. I used it as an example in a different forum in response to someone's post. The question is this:

1.) Does God make considerations for people who commit suicide as a result of having a more horrific way to die otherwise? I'm talking specifically about the jumpers of 9/11.. some chose to jump to their deaths, rather than be burned alive or turned into rubble. Will God take into account, their hearts at that moment or will he still send them to hell? I mean, he must know what a horrific decision they had to make that day.. :(

Our God and Father's love for us goes deeper than any circumstance we might face in this world. His mercy, compassion and understanding do as well. Let not your heart be troubled sis'. Neither let it be afraid :)

I'm certain all of us have asked (in our own minds, at least) similarly difficult questions to our God ... Who is, let's not forget, also our Father as well. The longer I have been privileged and blessed with His mercies and His grace, the more certain I am that He is wholly worthy of my undivided trust, my adoration ... and my love. He is simply far too loving, beautifully merciful and glorious for words. What an awesome God He truly is :)

Amen. Preach it Brother. Actually what you said earlier touched my heart so much because I have been going through some things that I would love to talk to someone about, but not quite sure how to exactly. I needed to hear it and I appreciate you saying it like it is:)

We sang this at church last Sunday and then at prayer meeting on Wednesday. It's so beautiful. Praise You, Jesus!

Hi KeepItSimple! I've been missing you!
A bit overloaded with work presently ... both on the job and at home. Been popping in less frequently for this reason. But things are slowly getting caught up :). You're always in my prayers sis'. All on this thread are :)

What a sweetheart you are cmarieh :). I have four daughters of my own .. and I know what a troublesome and difficult world this can be for a young woman. Never ever forget how much you are loved by God .. no matter what you are going thru .. no matter what you might be feeling. God's love in Jesus Christ trumps all. He knows ... He understands ... and He'll carry you thru it. Us older foggies have the luxury in faith of experiencing His love and His patience with us :)

Thank You for the kind words. I really needed a Kleenex after reading what you wrote. I feel so guilty because God has been blessing me so much lately and I have been dealing with things that I honestly don't know what. I mean, a couple of my friends text me everyday, but I don't want to burden them with my worries and struggles because they are going through situations of their own that I am trying to be there for them. I have told them a little bit, but not its entirety and they have helped encourage me. I just love getting encouraging messages because they always make me smile and remember God's promises on my life. I know God is getting ready to do something awesome, since the enemy is on my tail but he is going right under my feet where he belongs. Your kids are very blessed to have you as a father because you are a blessing to me. Happy Fathers Day, KIS
