Hello Beautiful People,

I was seating here getting a text to my phone and all I could do was think of myself in a situation like this/putting myself in this person shoes. Beautiful women, handsome men, old lady, grumpy men, and little children are now having more suicidal thoughts or attempting/committing suicide more than ever.

Growing up there was never many stories making headlines of children, or anybody for that matter, committing suicide. When I hear or see this on T.V. it breaks my heart.

People on this earth need to know that suicide is the one sin that you can not ask God for forgiveness. 1 John 1:9 (NIV) says, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness." It states WE have to confess for our sins, not mom, dad, sister, brother, or friends but yourself. So, if you commit suicide then you can not ask God to forgive you of your sins to be purified to spend the rest of your life in heaven.

Satan is out here to kill, steal and destroy, and if he can get you to do a task that he doesn't have to do himself than, he will do just that.

He has accomplished more than you ever know. Satan does not want ANYONE to make it to heaven because he can not go back (Revelation 12:7-12).

People have to realize their value of there life, who they belong to (God), and they are worth it.

Know that taking your life over whatever the situation is, is NOT WORTH YOUR LIFE!

Suicide is deeper than just a thought, its a spiritual, mental, and a physical problem. And if he/she doesn't have someone or somewhere to talk about whatever is causing them to have this thought he/she will feel like they don't have any other choice.

The AFSP (American Foundation for Suicide Prevention) states:

Suicide is the 10th leading cause of death in the US
Each year 44,965 Americans die by suicide
For every suicide 25 attempt
Suicide costs the US $69 Billion annually

Also AFSP states...

The annual age-adjusted suicide rate is 13.5 per 100,000 individuals.
Men die by suicide 3.57x more often than women.
On average, there are 123 suicides per day.
White males accounted for 7 of 10 suicides in 2016.
Firearms account for 51% of all suicides.
The rate of suicide is highest in middle age — white men in particular.

When I read these facts from AFSP all I could say was

I was completely speechless, no words could fabricate out of mouth. All I could do was pray for these people families and friends.

I say all of this to say if you know somebody that looks, talk, or seems like they may be having suicidal thoughts PLEASE CALL: #National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255
They are open 24 hours a day 7 days a week, and if you don't want to talk an online chat is on there website: https://suicidepreventionlifeline.org/chat/

These people/our loved ones NEED our help and if we don't start speaking up they WILL be just another percentage.

Yall be blessed, pray and know that YOU are LOVED and YOU are SPECIAL and NOBODY can take that away from you.
