i probably don't deserve serious consideration considering ALL of my post have been tongue in cheek and anything but serious replies. maybe in my humor i've offended, if so, i sorely apologize.
while i believe in prayer my single voice is not loud enough and the dark keeps getting darker.
my life is in turmoil. sadness and depression weights me down.
please pray in your private ways and ask for God's intersession for me.

i have the utmost respect for you all...you are very ernest and sincere for each other, please remember me.

thank you and God bless you

Danny,
Most people here use humor in their responses, which certainly doesn't make anyone a bad person undeserving of prayer. I'd be happy to keep you in my thoughts and prayers and I wish you well!!

Everyone is deserving of prayers. And I too will include you in my prayers.

I'm sorry to hear things are not going as you would like. I'm assuming you are still married amd I remembered you were in the process of relocating for your wife's allergy problems. At least you are not alone and you can gain strength and support through your wife during your time of need.

I hope life gets better for you soon. Try to stay positive and focus on the good. Smile


This Too Shall Pass

If I can endure for this minute
Whatever is happening to me,
No matter how heavy my heart is
Or how dark the moment may be-

If I can remain calm and quiet
With all the world crashing about me,
Secure in the knowledge God loves me
When everyone else seems to doubt me-

If I can but keep on believing
What I know in my heart to be true,
That darkness will fade with the morning
And that this will pass away, too-

Then nothing in life can defeat me
For as long as this knowledge remains
I can suffer whatever is happening
For I know God will break all of the chains

That are binding me tight in the darkness
And trying to fill me with fear-
For there is no night without dawning
And I know that my morning is near.

How about this one? Wink

Carry on my wayward son
There'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more

Once I rose above the noise and confusion
Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion
I was soaring ever higher
But I flew too high

Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man
Though my mind could think I still was a mad man
I hear the voices when I'm dreaming
I can hear them say

{Refrain}

Masquerading as a man with a reason
My charade is the event of the season
And if I claim to be a wise man, well
It surely means that I don't know

On a stormy sea of moving emotion
Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean
I set a course for winds of fortune
But I hear the voices say

{Refrain}
No!

Carry on, you will always remember
Carry on, nothing equals the splendor
Now your life's no longer empty
Surely heaven waits for you

thank you all.
things are getting better. i'm no longer suicidal, just miserable. Smile

you see, my wife left me...took the kids, you've seen the movie...i wish that was all there was. her leaving me has opened pandor's box and now i have to confront demons. but i do believe in a benevalent higher power and i do believe he/she/whatever has a role in our lives so i know "this too shall pass".

thank you again for your support. i feel it's effects already. she's switched from guns to knives...it's an improvement...it's a process. Wink

Dan,

I am so sorry you are going through this. You are in my prayers, and please feel free to contact me if you need to talk. (email in profile)

Dan, when someone you love leaves you it is heart wrenching and I can understand no longer wanting to live without that person. But believe that this happened for a reason. I have faith that God is in control of all situations and that He allows us to experience tough times so that we can learn and grow from them. He has a leason to teach you.

Right now you are experiencing a very small chapter of your life. Your wife had a cameo appearance. Do you really want to waste much emotion over the loss of a situation that only filled up a portion of your lifetime?

DAN: Continue to ask some questions in the religion and health forums.

I pray that you know the truth and that it sets you free. Begin with God, because He is the truth in all.

You really deserve it - really! Wink

Dan, I went through a situation that sounds just like this 12 years ago. After taking the road to hell and back you will be much stronger!

If I offered you a crisp, new hundred dollar bill, no strings attached, would you take it? Of course! What if I crumpled it up in my hands first? How about if I threw it in the dirt and stomped on it - would you take it, then? Damn straight - it's still worth a hundred bucks!

You might get crumpled or stomped on, but you will not lose value. You are here for a reason!

Dan,

Lifting your situation up into the Heavenly Tabernacle of God Most High. May your burdens be lightened by the exchange of the garment of heaviness for hope.

In prayer,

again, i thank you all. things are much better.
we are talking, i'm back home now. the "ice" is still thin so i'm/we're treading lightly.

this situation and it's resolution is proof of a higher power. it was so messy that only divine intervention could/can save our marriage and help me get my feet on solid ground again.

thank you again...your checks are in the mail.

your cyber pal,

danny
