Hi...this is my story

[SciFiGeek21]

Hi, my name is Jade and I'm a 21-year-old female from USA. And I grew up with Christian parents and as a teen growing up I pretty much ignored it and for a while I've ignored it a lot more, but now I'm starting to pay attention to the Christian religion and God.

I've had some very rough past few years and I think that's why I drifted away even more. I went through a surprising heart surgery due to a very rare birth defect that was unknown for 18 years of my life. So I was pretty frustrated and shocked after finishing high school and having to face this! I pretty much fell apart and have been very depressed.

I have no job, car, drivers license or in college. I seem to have developed a lot of fears and frustrations to the world. I spend most of my time alone and in my room. I rarely go out and I'm in a lot of pain and discomfort most of the time.

I'm only recently realizing that maybe my ignorance has allowed Satan to influence me. I've developed an attitude that I don't have any interests in this world or wish to live in it. I've thought of dieing and killing myself and have attempted a few times, yet failed. Something was nagging at me to not kill myself. But I think I fear what is beyond death then death itself.

I am not opening my bible and reading Christian books to help me!

So, that's my story!

Welcome to the site Jade.

You said that you are becoming more interested in Christianity lately, is there any reason why then you would not read Chrsitain books and or the Bible?

Welcome aboard. Hope to see you on the site for many years to come.

keep in mind, some of us who consider ourselves Christians or followers of Christ have the ability to minister the gospel without referencing a bible or Chrisitan book. Sometimes, just the light of Christ inside us shines through us in our post, conversation, text message or any form of communication we use.
Draw near to people like that and it will be good.

Jesus loves me. He loves you too.
