Matt. 7:7 Sharing God's Love. At point in my life, I had hit bottom. I was a backslider, had gone against my beliefs, and what I considered to be the right way to live. I felt that I had sinned so badly that God would never forgive me. Had, just gotten through a divorse after twenty one years of marriage. Went right into a destrutive abusive relationship for a few years. One abusive night, I had just had it! The sin and chaos that I had let enter my life, had taken its toll. I went outside, looked up into the heavens, into a beautiful starlit night. I prayed the most fervent prayer of my life. "Lord, I am not even worthy to speak your name, but I must cry out to you for help. I am at the bottom now Lord,and I can see no way out. If you do not help me Lord, I know I am going to Hell! Hear me oh Lord, I asked for forgiveness and called out for mercy, knowing that I did not deserve it. There was a good feeling came over me, a feeling of peace. a feeling that it was going to be ok. I prayed that I would meet someone that would be good to me, and that would help me go back to a better life style. Within two weeks, I met a very nice man,. The new relationship worked very well, with Gods help I gradually got back on the right track. In time my new friend and I got married. We have been married nearly eighteen years now, and he is still as good to me as when I first met him. However more than that, I am still living for God.Yes, there has been times of discouragement, times when satan tells me that He "Christ" did not forgive me, times when I seriously considered taking my life. One time, I nearly did try to end it all, but a clear picture of that night when I was looking up into the sky begging for mercy came to my mind, How could I could I murder myself, after God was so loving and merciful to me. satan is not dumb, in fact he is quite sly, he takes control of our thoughts, tells us that we really are not forgiven, But our God is still there! He has shown me mercy and I just start claiming Gods promises. Oh yes. God is so good. I hope this story helps someone, if you are near suicide, call out to Him, He is still in the forgiving business, and He loves YOU! Hang on, God is there.
