Temtation

I plan on becoming a christian in a few days, but I think I'm being tempted to kill myself, before that day.

Really Chris? For one, why plan on become a Christian? Why not call on Jesus now? There is no time like the present. And once you do, and you begin your walk in faith with a new relationship with Jesus Christ, you may not have those nagging thoughts of suicide. Wishing you all the best.?

I'm waiting because I want to see a pastor. When I try by myself, I doubt.

That's the dark side trying to take you down. Don't give into it.

I hope you are able to contact OldBiker. He was able to help me understand a crisis of faith.

Why? Christ didn't kill himself. Others killed him. Sorry, that was a bad joke. Would you care to explain why you feel that way, when you're so close to letting Jesus Christ into your heart?

My mind seems to like my stress.

Jesus loves you, he really does, and he understands your pain. Talk to him about it.

You will love the caring and support you get from a Christian church. I don't recommend topping yourself before hand; that's like going and buying a chocolate mousse and then killing yourself without eating it... I mean... why?

lol. You'll be fine. You don't have to do a thing just because you have the idea. Get thee to a church, you will love it.

I am concerned to know that you don’t want to live, Chris58. I suggest that you get some help right away – talk to your pastor or someone you trust. Please tell them how you’re feeling, may be they can support you during this time. I will certainly be praying for you. Take care of yourself.

    Just thought I would join this group now that I am a widower.  My wife passed away May 28th. She was "The Wind Beneath My Wings".  When I met her, I was a drunken, dope smoking, fighting, hell raising biker.  She told me if I could get rid of the inner storm within me, that I could be a blessing to people. God placed her in my path to stop me.  I have been drug and alcohol free now for 53...

    My husband and I got our foster license last month, after 3 years of hard work (we had to start over multiple times due to family dramas and Mom's open heart surgery). We spent a year preparing the whole house, guest rooms, and children's bathroom for older kids of 7 yr old and up. Then we got a call that we have been approved to receive twin newborn premies. What, what?!! Babies!? Premies?!...
