Quote from my new favorite TV show "I'm question mark and I'm wondering..."
If some one had you at gun point, about to pull the trigger back, and all of a sudden, your best friend that you talk to about everything and you have such an amazing bond with, or maybe even a total stranger, some one you have never heard tell of before, stands in front of you and says to the gunman "NO, shoot me instead, let 'place name here'

Well, first of all, growing up, I had an abusive father and then when my parents split up things got worst. When I got into high school, I had all the stresses of school on top of of this family stress. I actually attempted suicide a couple of times. Okay, no one knows any of this except Adrienne, who is my best friend in the whole wide world because she helped to save me. She brought me to church and I listened to the pastor speak about how much God loves us, even if we think no one else cares, and that he has an amazing plan for us in life. I listened to this very carefully. The next week, I was at this Christian confention and I got saved. From then on I knew I was going to be allright if I had God on my side. Anytime I was worried or upset, I'd pray to God to help me through it, and he did EVERY SINGLE TIME! He'd use other people to help me as well. I ended up making soo many new friends, and everyone could see that I had changed, and they all liked me and wanted to hang out with me. I soon started spreading my faith to other people so they could feel this joy too.
I used to think church was such a boring place, but it's now like the best place in the world. It's Where I can feel connected with God.
If you really put all your faith and love into the Lord, he will bless you with wonderful things (not material things, but you feel love, and hope and other great things).
Recently, for example, I met this awesome guy who was also a Christian, and we clicked right away. I really cared about him soo soo much but I knew he was going through a rough time as it was and didn't need the extra stress of a relationship at the time. I prayed to God for him, soo that we both could be happy. I think my real wish was that we'd be together, but God knew the situation more than I did. I prayed for 5 months straight for Dan, and I still will continue to. Right now, I'm not sad that we're not together, in fact, I'm very happy that I have God on my side, with me all the way, every step in my life, even when things get down, he's there for me.
If you feel like your life is just falling apart like I did and you don't even feel like caring, God loves you and he cares soo much about you. Don't turn your back. Your life will be completely changed if you except him. Even if you are happy right now, God will make it ten times better, and he'll give you a bright future.
Sorry, if some of that sounds a little cheesy, but it's the truth.
I hope I helped answer your question :)
Some quotes from the bible, I read that really helped me:
"...trust in the Lord with all your heart and He shall direct thy paths..." (Proverbs 3:5)
"...I will give thanks to you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; wonderful are your works, and my soul knows it very well.." (Psalm 138:14)
My favorite one of all:
"For God so loved the world that he gave his only son, for whosoever believeth in him, shall not parish, but have eternal life.." (John 3:1)
Jesus loves you, Adam!! :)
