About what Infinite8 said about accepting Jesus, here's a little parable-like thing I heard:
But anyway, masterofchaos, do you see how many people here care for you? RF is a family and we all care deeply for each other. We all are encouraging you not to go through with this and to try your absolute hardest to make it past any tough times that come your way, and we're here to help you do that.
Quote:There was a man who was in a car crash, and he saw his life flash before his eyes. He found himself walking along the beach with Jesus, and as they walked along the sand, there were two sets of foot prints, one his, one Jesus's. They walked along and they saw images of the man's life, it was a very happy childhood. Then they reached the time when he was a teenager.... His friend died from a drunk driver..... His dad died from smoking..... He was in his 20's now.... He married, but his wife cheated on him...... He was in his 30's now.... He divorced but lost his kid in court..... His 40's..... He became an alcoholic..... Went bankrupt.....
At this point, the man looked at the ground and noticed there was only one set of footprints. He said to Jesus: "Why did you abandon me when I needed you?", Jesus told him: "I didn't abandon you, I carried you."
But anyway, masterofchaos, do you see how many people here care for you? RF is a family and we all care deeply for each other. We all are encouraging you not to go through with this and to try your absolute hardest to make it past any tough times that come your way, and we're here to help you do that.
Too legit to quit.
