All About GOD - Growing Relationships with Jesus and Others
Without God I'd be Dead (Discussion Closed)
When I first started this prayer request I was asking for prayer but instead it turned into a discussion where people was telling what they think I should do. I felt insecure about posting this anyways, but even after I slept on it I still feel insecure about it. I decided to remove my opening text, delete my responses and close the discussion. Thank you to those who did what I asked and prayed for me.

The wife of a man from the company of the prophets cried out to Elisha, “Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that he revered the LORD. But now his creditor is coming to take my two boys as his slaves.” Elisha replied to her, “How can I help you? Tell me, what do you have in your house?” “Your servant has nothing there at all,” she said, “except a little oil.” Elisha said, “Go around and ask all your neighbors for empty jars. Don’t ask for just a few. Then go inside and shut the door behind you and your sons. Pour oil into all the jars, and as each is filled, put it to one side.”
2 Kings 4:1-4The story goes on to tell us that the oil continued flowing until she ran out of jars with which to fill it. And she was able to keep her sons out of slavery.
All this woman could focus on was what she didn’t have. Elisha, on the other hand, was interested in her exception. And it was her exception that became the vessel for a miracle.
People often excuse themselves from the miraculous because they don’t have a lot to work with or offer God to work with. Maybe it’s their skills. A lack of resources. Or little experience.
Whatever the reason, what they don’t realize is that that in itself makes them a candidate for the power of God to flow through their lives. God has a history of using what little someone has to do great things only He can do.
God used a shepherd’s staff to part the Red Sea.
He used five loaves and two fish to feed thousands.
He even used an ass (Numbers 22, King James Version) to talk to someone and save their life.One of the greatest strategies of the enemy is to get you to focus on what you don’t have, what you used to have, or what someone else has that you wish you had instead of looking in your house and asking the question, “God, what can you do through what I have?”
Here’s the profound truth you need to begin embracing today: All God needs to work miracles in your life is all you have. A God who created something out of nothing can also create something great out of little.

Gregory
Hold on no matter what even when you think, that is it can take no more. You seem to know God does help at those times of reading the word. That is the power of Gods word how He talks to us. But I want to be honest I have been right where you are, but I step out and did something selfish and stupid. I am still here do not know if I am alive or dead. I do know I am now empty God has left and I am crying my heart out I am shouting my whole being for His forgiveness. Realize all you will miss not going to Heaven first Eternity with empty nothing instead of relief it will be pain and wailing and to all you loved and loved you( hate for ever. )
Yes without God we are dead so please please just hold on to God even if you do not figure it out right away hold on. The opposite is far far worse Being in Hell while still alive in this world. Where Faith Hope and Love are gone, which no one can understand till it is gone. OH IT HURTS
Know that you just Call on God and He will answer you. I did not and I am Oh Gregory even if you have to read your word 24 seven do what it takes GOD ABBA JESUS LOVES YOU Gregory you do not want to be dead!!!!!!
There has been so many great things said use what you can, doctors, meds, talking sharing, the word, just be smart and know stupid is real bad real real bad I know do not come this way.
