LOVE

"Words of hope and encouragement come from Christ. Anytime you feel down on yourself, remember that those thoughts are LIES. You are incredible. You are beautiful. You are wonderful, important, wise, and loved. Remember the truth. And listen to it."

The Question that Stopped Me

This was one of the questions that always popped into my head while considering suicide. Of course I don't know the answer, but I like to think that God will have mercy on those who struggle so much that they have the want to end their own lives. My doctor and good friend once told me that God would never stop loving you. He made an analogy that goes along the lines of, "if you come home from school early, and your parents find out, will they stop loving you? No. They will be sad and disappointed, but will never cease to love you. The same goes for your Heavenly Father. He won't stop loving you if you come 'home' early, but he will feel despair and sadness that you felt the need to give up. He wants us to succeed. He will never cease to love us."
