Have You Ever Contemplated Suicide?
You had better read this first, for the
trauma that you are
suffering temporarily today is nothing compared the
torture after.
Please reconsider your options since eternity is forever.
1Corinthians 3:16:
"Know you not that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit
of God dwelleth in you?
But if any man violate the temple of God, him
shall God destroy. For the temple of God is holy, which you are."
Genesis
1:26-27:
"And he said: Let us make man to our image and likeness: and let him
have dominion over the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the air, and the
beasts, and the whole earth, and every creeping creature that moveth upon the
earth. And God created man to his own image: to the image of God he created him:
male and female he created them."
How could anyone endeavor
to kill that which had been created in "the image of GOD"?
For
what purpose are we here on earth?
We have been put here in order to save our
immortal souls. This world is not our home.
We are citizens of Heaven, not of
earth. We are going to heaven.
In this life we are just packing our bags for
the journey.
Our destination is Heaven. Our cargo is our soul. We have only
two options, and the choice is ours.
We can either spend our
eternity in the presence of the Beatific Vision, or we can spend it
in a very unpleasant place.
I choose the former.
Can we save our
souls by a commission of suicide?
What does Holy Scripture tell
us?
The fifth commandment:
Exodus 20:13 "You shall not
kill."
"We have an epidemic of suicides, especially of young
people."
A quote from Father Luke Zimmer.
"Suicide is fast becoming
the number one killer of our young people."
A quote from Father John
Corapi.
"Be not afraid."
A quote from Pope John Paul
II.
Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary condition.
Life
is so short. Eternity is so long.
GOD giveth and only GOD can taketh
away.
GOD give me the strength to accept things I cannot change, to
change
things that I can and to know the
difference between them.
Hold up your hand and say on each finger,
"I
AM BEAUTIFUL THANK GOD."
A quote from Father Dermot Dwyer.
