9 years ago September 28 2 weeks affter the September 11th tragety of the world trade centers a clsoe friend of mine took her life two days affter my birthday. i never realy delt with it just kind of stuffed it away in a dark closet with other hurts,
i will call her saphfire because it is the color of Septembers birthstone,
Saphfire was a beautiful person that i love most of all God loves her.
Saphfire and i were a lot a like,we love to draw paint right poetry and sing she had a beautiful singing voice.
i rember one of the last coversatins i had with her she was telling me one of her dreams which was alot like mine she told me she wanted make a book to help childeren to heal from abuse,she said she didnt know why she was telling me this but i do now i had a dream to make a childrens book from the bible but now it is a goal to make a christian book to help children heal from abuse,i plan to put it in her memory,
we had so much in common it was like we were twin sisiters i only new her a couple of years we made friends fast.
I tryed to take my life a few times i didnt think i had any hope and all was lost thats a lie from satan he is a liar the father of lies he is roaming around like a lion seeking who he may devour,
1 peter5:8Be sober be vilagant the because your adversary the devil,as a roaring lion,walketh about seeking whom he may devour:
The Lord says we have a hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11says
For i know the thought i think tword yousaith the Lordthoughts of peace and not of evilto give an unexpected end,

We share the same birth month and birth stone. I love the blue sapphire. :) Cool! *hug*

So cool you are making a book such as that. Sounds like her death is not in vain. Though it may appear to be. Always a sad thing when a life ends that way. T raggedy for sure. The effects of suicide are felt with in those who are left wondering why for the rest of their lives. Every year this particular day brings grief. Possible a deeper grief than if the death came in a different way.

Thanks for sharing sis. Love you. Praying for you.
*angel7* Sorrow looks back, Worry looks around, But faith looks up! Live simply, love generously, care deeply, speak kindly and trust in our Creator who loves us.

Do you know my Jesus? Do you know my friend? Have you heard He loves you? If not, I'd like to introduce you.
