Hello.

I just have a question.

How many people come here as troubled hearts and minds and have lots of feelings and thoughts and have found someone here within this site that they can speak to, email to, or PM with?

I am one of them. Are you? I have spent a lot of time getting to know a lot of members here. When I first came here I was pretty hurting, troubled and pretty much giving up on life. I had lots and lots of bad thoughts going on in my heart and mind. Someone here took some time and allowed me to share those thoughts with them. Then others allowed me to open up to them. In time, those bad thoughts became distant and a sense of belonging came to be. A sense of feeling loved and cared about came. A healing took place that I could not find any place else.

What would have happened to me if I would have been charged a penny for every thought I had, or every thought I had shared, every feeling? I would have been lost forever because I was so full of them that I didn't feel I could ever get rid of the dark times and thoughts in my life. I would have gone broke for certain. I would have lost more then just my soul to darkness, I would have lost all I had that kept me warm, fed, and clothed too. That was how many thoughts I had built up inside that I had shared.

What would happen to all of you that have shared your feelings? Shared your thoughts upon this site, either by chatting, or by typing on forums?

This site offers us all so much that we so often take for granted. They don't charge us a penny for every thought shared, or for ever minute we take of their time away from their work for God. They give it all freely to us to use. They open their hearts to us.

Where else can we talk about what is going on in our lives and Christian walks that is tearing us down that does not charge us by the hour or at least by the month? There isn't any place out there like this one. All these things are offered to us for free.

This site don't turn its back on us when we have needed it, when the Lord brought us all here. He knew it would be here for us and give us the help we needed and it has, and it continues to do so for us and so many others.

But now we hear about those that have brought this site together are in need of help, and are we doing as the Lord asks of us? Are we standing hand in hand with them helping them, as they have helped so many of us?

You see, one person reading this don't have to give thousands of dollars, but only pennies, just like those pennies you would have given for your thoughts you shared. If all of us gave just a few of those pennies we shared as thoughts to this site, we all could help those that helped us. Turn those thoughts shared back into even just a $5 donation and if everyone that has been helped by this site does just that, then not one person would have to carry this burden alone.

How many of you belong to a church, that when you hear of a family there in crisis, that you see everyone in that church come together to bring clothes, food, money, or any other kinds of items needed to help that family out. You feel that inner voice calling you and asking you to give of yourself and what you can for that family. In doing so that keeps the whole body of the church together in accord, uniting and coming together to help one another out.

So why can't we as a body of this church do the same thing? Come together and all give just what we can, a little from everyone, a dollar here and there, or what you can afford to give, can all bring this family even closer together in Him.

Just a penny for your thoughts shared. Kind of like giving back to those that gave to you. Paying it forward. Doing for those that helped you. Don't take much to make a difference to someone that truly needs you. Just as you all should know because you have been where you needed help in one way or form.

Pray and ask the Lord for His guidance. Have a blessed day and evening in the Lord.

Sincerely,

Breezy
