Hi all. I have a really urgent request. One of my friends is having some really bad family problems. She's drained physically, emotionally, and mentally, and at her breaking point. She struggles with depression and suicidal thoughts/actions. She called me and wanted to talk, but I could offer no other help but reading passages of Scripture to her. It's a really tough situation, please please please pray for her peace in this time. And that she would see the nearness of her Savior, though life's trials overcrowd her thoughts. Thank you.
It's been a while since anyone's posted on this discussion, so why not me?
Could we with ink the ocean fill, and were the skies of parchment made; were ev'ry stalk on earth a quill, and ev'ryone a scribe by trade; to write the love of God above would drain the ocean dry; nor could the scroll contain the whole, though stretched from sky to sky.
That's a great idea Jappel! I need encouragement myself in this area. I'm going for an MDiv this fall, and becoming a pastor seems like such a daunting task. Thank you for your willingness to address this issue, I will definitely pray that God blesses your work and gives you His wisdom!
I was wondering if you memorized all of Revelation... Good work! I thought about it, but decided to start on Romans instead. It seems to me that the more you look at any verse, passage, or book, however mundane, the more you appreciate it as God's holy, inspired, all-profitable, and precious Word.
