almost 3 years ago, at almost 22 years old i almost took my own life. I was abused as a kid, broken, depressed, anorexic, bulimic, suicidal. I went in & out of psych units like it was a game of Chess. Suicide watch. I was on enough Antidepressants to kill a horse. I hated myself. I wanted out. I wanted the pain to stop. The gaslighting* to end. *(when a psycho makes a sane person question their own sanity, and thus think they themselves are the insane one). I wanted power. I got into witchcraft. I thought it would give me the identity i wanted, to be set apart from people who hurt me. It only made me sicker. Sicker. Thats what it did to me. The doctors said i’dnever get well. That i would suffer severe Chronic Manic depression, and never be well, that id be stuck on antidepressants all of my life. I would plot suicide on a daily basis, binging and purging my food as often as opening and closing a door. The pain was too real. People choked me. Assaulted me. Told me i was ugly, i felt worthless. Nothing ever got better. Then my mother died. The (1) & only soul who ever loved /emotionally supported me was removed from the earth. I was stuck living with people who broke me, ruined my identity, thus causing me to hate God. I thought God hated me, that he was just like the ones who tortured me, a family of abusers, who cover up all their actions with the mask of religion. I didnt know that God is on my side. I didnt know that Jesus would Love and Defend me, and fight for me and that He later would heal me, rescue me from Family. The ones who caused me pain. The ones who choked me for wearing a necklace. I moved out after family threatened to throw all my belongings on the front yard, and have me permanently institutionalized in an insane asylum, when they were the ones who caused my mental illness via abuse. They blamed me for the abuse they did to me. To take my life in an insane asylum when they were the ones who made me suicidal. Next morning i spoke with my dead moms parents who let me live with them. I stayed on the antidepressants, prescribed. But they only made me sicker. I got deeper and deeper into witchcraft, thinking it was a solution. But it made me even more suicidal. Self hatred was inescapable. All my cards have fallen down. I have nothing left. But out. I wanted out. I decided i was going to kill myself. I was going to take all my pills. But then Jesus stepped in. I didnt die. I surrendered my life to Jesus to make me well and heal me. The deity i blamed for me being abused wanted to heal me. He Was fighting for me and Loved me all along. He wanted to love me. He wanted to give me His Heart. HE LOVES ME. JESUS. LOVES. ME . Jesus miraculously healed me - i am off all drugs and dont need them and i dont have any mental illnesses. I have a job and am totally healed , full of joy. I’m now a born again Christian, in my 20’s who wants the entire world to know that JESUS WANTS TO HEAL YOU HE. LOVES. YOU.
Duet 33:27 The eternal God is your refuge & underneath are the everlasting arms. If God is for u who can be against u...I praise God for what He did in your life, what a wonderful testimony u have.
Praise God for revealing himself to you. What a great testimony. You are loved!!! Be blessed and be a blessing to others, that stuck in these dark places!!!
It’s also important to mention when we’re continuing to pray and have hope of a healing god can change how you feel towards the situation, he can change how you think and he can lessen the physical pain. I’ve had this happen where the problem and health issues are still there but you feel, and think differently, and the physical pain can be bearable or lowered down. God and faith work in many ways. When you feel disheartened the problems are still there you can feel so differently about them and optimistic for life when normally you wouldn’t.
Wow. So well said! I experienced that when my son as 16 year old who lost his dad as a 11year old could pray for a younger boy who just lost his father. God is good ALL the time!
My son passed away on 2019 May 14th on Tuesday at 9am in the morning, and I almost committed suicide the next day that was 15th on a Wednesday when my son was at the mortuary, I was about to do it and also did it but then I realised that me thinking that I was ending my pain was just passing it out to the rest of my surviving family, I want you to know that I feel you pain Sir and theirs not a moment goes by when I don't think about my son, the sad thing is living and realizing that the world continues as if they never existed so its up to us to keep their memories burning, I lost everything while dealing with depression, I lost my job my wife and now am just trying to survive every day that comes, my son was only 8months old and he passed away of pneumonia, he was our only child and up to this day I know God had a reason for what happened although it took me long to realize that I will always pray for him
There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. 1 Corinthians 10:13 I empathize with Pastor Rick and his family. I can't imagine the pain they've gone through.
Thanks for your sweet response, God has really been wonderful to us all, may his name be parise, you seem to be a God fearing person right 😃, that's amazing...by the way nice meeting you on here, I hope you are having a wonderful time out there right 😃, have a blessed day out there 🙏
I have lost two Sons to suicide. One was an Iraq vet. The other a married man with children. Neither one left an indication. That suicide was on their mind. Neither instance made sense at all. No one knows why o ever will know. God and time are the only cure for my pain of loss.
I am so very sorry!!! It's hard enough to go.through one suicide (my sister was a victim in '94) much less two!!! But please know your Heavenly Father sees your pain and is able to comfort you. And brothers and sisters in Christ love you also and would willingly put you on their prayer list....

But getting back that time my father started beating me with iron rods and i knew it in my mind i will die today but AMAZING thing happened while he started beating me i saw the blood of JESUS CHRIST rolling over my head to foot and surrounding me like iam a baby in my mother's womb. GOD FATHER and his son JESUS CHRIST is in me and even his HOLY SPIRIT and i know he will never leaves us nor forsakes us. I have done only 2nd year high school only though i wanted to be something but my father Put me in heart Pains and i didn't knew how to be with People outside but i learned somehow and i am thankful to JESUS CHRIST that i can speak clearly and Express now well from my heart.

Deception is a terrible thing, i knew of a guy who thought bc he was a Christian he would make it to heaven, even if he did suicide. He did end up necking himself, and I hate to think where he might be bc no murderer shall enter the kingdom of heaven. But then again we dont full know the power and love of God so who r we to say where one goes when they die, God has the final say on everything.
I know what deep depression feels like. I lost my 12yo daughter, Lana, on Feb 24, 2020. I can’t even choose joy when I wake up everyday with a broken and empty heart. I only manage to live day to day for my 14yo daughter, Jadyn who witnessed her sister get ran over by a truck. I long to be in the presence of our Lord, Jesus. Jesus... please come soon! 🙏🏼
Prayers for you and your healing journey-I’m so sorry for your loss. Lost my son almost 2 yrs ago-suicide. The loss of a child is so very hard. You are not alone-please reach out. I now run a grief group for parents that have lost a child-through my pain-I have helped so many-and it has helped me as well. The pain gets better-I promise. But there is always an ache in your heart that comes up and the most unexpected times. It’s Mother’s Day and I have been crying all day. But I know-through my faith-I will push through. You will too. Keep pushing, praying I ask Holy Spirit to wrap his arms around me every night so I can sleep.
People have empathy for a broken body, but very little for a broken mind. Thank you for sharing this painfull story and help people to understand that chronic depression is reall and thank you for sharing your story. Job’s friends understood the ministry for only one week. they kept quiet and then they blew it! Can soo relate to this
Christians need to stop saying ppl that commit suicide go to hell BC one no one knows a man’s heart except God . Two only God can send someone to heaven or hell he is the ultimate judge.Three the only sin he will not forgive us for is blasphemy the Holy Ghost. . Defiling the temple can be over eating, tanning ,being stressed . Stop telling others their family went to hell ... it’s not right .
Our Caitlyn died by suicide at 12 years old. We miss her so much. She was precious and beautiful. We will never be the same. It changed our life forever. Rip Caitlyn. Forever 12
I believe that God has called me to minister to people who are struggling with mental health. Pray with me for strength and power as I embark on this journey.
This is a wonderful ministry to go into. Read the scriptures for guidance on it. God led me to ministry and has led me to deliverance. There a supernatural war going on and people are battling spiritual warfare. Suicide is on the rise and there is a spirit behind it. Look in the scriptures at the two people who killed themselves, the scriptures say they were taken over by Satan. King Saul was being tormented by familiar spirits. That allow us to know that depression is a spiritual attack from the enemy. Jesus tells is to cast out demons and not to be deceived. Claim.the blood of Jesus and know that through Jesus the enemy has to leave. God bless you !!
This thug collaborated with Jerry Falwell Sr. to charge all Liberty Students $7 for that book called Purposes Driven Life. I was working a minimum wage job and $7 was too much for me for the book I did not need. I was so broke and I could not afford $7 at that time. I requested the students account office to remove that $7 from my account but the refused. You are talking of somebody exploiting you at your lowest point. Chickens have come home to roost.
So true when my mom died, I didn't talk... I was eleven and everyone wanted me to get therapy because I was so quiet...they thought I was traumatized...but what could I say... I didn't know what to say...but thankfully the Lord met me where I am at and helps me each and every day, so grateful💞
@@nomatusi7514 Had you told them about your lack of funds, I'm sure they would have Given you the book for free! But you, by spitting hate, show the world what kind of person you are!
I pray that my son is covered by the blood of Jesus. I try to converse with him about different things, but he don't really open up to me. I feel that he is holding a lot of pain, hurt, disappointment, fear, anger, and un-forgiveness inside of him. I see videos like this, and it make me concern. I know how UA-cam work, and they use algorithms. But I don't think something like this pop up by accident. So, I pray that he will be alright in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen and Amen and Amen and Amen and Amen.
As a parent GOD listens to ya prayers over ya son. I have used Psalms 138:7-8 and the blood of JESUS to detach my son's soul from every evil altar and have seen my son open up and is all jolly in the house, praise b to GOD. So don't give up keep praying and stay positive
I agree with this prayer, Lord Send Labourers to Bring all the wayward son's & daughter's Home in Jesus Name Surround them with a shield of Protection in Jesus Name
This is rough. Faith doesn't deny reality. My youngest daughter struggles with depression. I know what he is talking about and my blood runs cold. Everyday I have to put her in Jesus' hands. The things she confesses to me are heartbreaking. I watched this transformation take my baby girl as she approached puberty. There was nothing I could do but watch her fall apart. Now she is 23. We just celebrated her birthday. Never stop praying for and loving your child. Ever! Trust God's grace. The cross was enough. This is our only hope and sanity and why people need Jesus.
soo agreed.I put both sons in God's hands. I know God loves them more. Mercy Me's, Even If, inspires me. Plus We DO NOT GO THROUGH ANY PAIN OR SUFFERING that can MATCH OR SURPASS WHAT CHRIST WENT THROUGH FOR US! Rather people want to recognize this or not. We are in a VERY REAL SPIRITUAL BATTLE. What enemy meant for evil God can use for our good n HIS GLORY. CHRIST is STILL coming back.
Thomas davenport: your daughter has a demon and rick son had a demon of depression. You have get a deliverance buy a real pastor that has the power of the holy spirit. Its the only way wheither you believe in or not. Its demon oppression. Jesus is still alive and he can deliver her from the torment. Look up these guys and go to them and you will see uour daughter healed. VLAD SAVCHUK AND BOB LARSON! Its hard to say this but ricks son died because they dont believe in deliverance i could tell but his speech. But you can believe and girl your daughter freed please!
It’s a real suffering to watch our children go through such agonizing pain. I have two sons, one with mental illness since 17 and the other with severe anxiety both recovering from addictions; especially my younger son. Each and every day I pray for them, constantly. Such heartbreak, but I will never , ever give up. I continually trust in my Lord.
@@alg2250This is a damaging statement that brings an unnecessary burden. How dare you put those Spiritual burdens on another member of the body. Jesus' burden is light and yoke is easy and would never speak to His children the way you have.
I'm in pain every day. stuck in what feels like emotional quicksand. My passion for life is nonexistent rt now. I can't imagine ever feeling well again. Everything hurts. When I wake up reality rushes back into my mind and heart. I know my lord and my faith is strong .I couldn't go through this without his comfort . I lost my son 3 months ago. Joey was 26. I found him in the morning and held him as I prayed and cried. It was diabetes related we believe... still don't know for sure. I miss his voice ,his face ,his way , his intelligence, his love, I miss being whole. I miss talking to him, his attitude, his laugh , I miss my baby boy . I miss being who I was. I know one day I'll be reunited with him. I can't wait 🙏 Lord please stay close to me. I'll be needing you more then ever. Jesus I love you.
You guys are to be so excited your in so much pain because where there's a lot of pain there's a lot of reason for God manifest in your life, Read your bibles about what Jesus already did for you what he has said about you and believe in your hearts that Pain is only there to gain revelation of wisdom of healing that you would have never had if it wasn't for the pain and it grows your testimony of reasons to believe the next time someone asks, why do you believe what you believe...
My son committed suicide on February 22nd, 2021. His Birthday would have been yesterday. He would have been 41. I am so sad. I have a group of people surrounding me. I do not know what I would do without them, to this day, Mother’s Day, 2021. He was loved for all he had done over his life in helping others too. I am still in shock, but also pain. I try to suit up and show up for the most part, but honestly it’s going to be awhile longer before I’m strong enough to help anyone with the kind of strength shown here. I will someday, but till then I’m just trying to be with God in solitude, and writing what God gives me to do.
Brother Warren, I lost my 24-year-old daughter to suicide. This has been over 2 years ago. I have never experienced anything as painful in all my life. May God continue to carry you and your wife daily. My wife and I have never been the same. We also hold on to the grace of God. The words God has given you in this short video are precious and meaningful. I hope everyone who has been touched by this type tragedy can take away: you are not alone, and God’s grace will empower you to not waste your one drop of your pain. I write all this with great humility.
My sister committed suicide in 2014. All I know about suicide is that it's the most tragic death to get over for those who knew that person, let alone the parents. May God's love enfold you.
This thug collaborated with Jerry Falwell Sr. to charge all Liberty Students $7 for that book called Purposes Driven Life. I did not know where my next meal will come from leave alone waste $7 on a book I did not need. That was my lowest point in life to be exploited by the so called pastors. Chickens have come home to roost.
Rick Warren will never know how much he saved and changed my life by helping me to understand more, how much Jesus loves me. God Bless Him and his late son. RIP Matthew.

I had a troubled childhood, grew up depressed. There were times I had wished that I was not born into this world at all. Had I not found the love of Jesus Christ at the right time I wouldn't be here to watch this video today. The best treatment for extreme mental depression would be finding the love of jesus Christ ......
Yes How dangerous it is to say people who commit suicide can go to heaven.. I was like you and also had mental problems My parents were so successful like Rick No one knew what was the problem in our family system He is a human being It is painful to go through those difficult times but don’t say that Many People are being tempted to commit suicide You are mislead people now..

If you have ever experienced deep depression, there is nothing you want more than for the pain to stop and if that means going home to the Lord, you pray for that. It’s no different than having a broken bone that stays broken, except it’s your brain. Love to you and your family.

Yup. This describes what it felt like for me in 2020-2021 where my younger sister had a personal issue that dragged the whole damn family in. Counting me, when I was doing lots of personal work, too. During that time period, I really wished to be put down either by God in my sleep, or through a person.
My mother suicided at age 21..left m 6 mths old brother, me 19mths old and sister 4yo. Dad a soldier has a heck of a ride . Life's been very hard so I'm pleading please don't suicide, the pain and destruction left behind is more than most can bear. Watch your families your friends, save them
My husband killed himself five years ago. It’s changed me forever I lost my mind for a time and required 24-hour care. You’re right: Suicides leave behind a swath of destruction that most folks can not imagine.
Oh my goodness, I’m so sorry for your loss. It will take time, counseling, surrounding yourself with loved ones. I’ll pray for you and your family!! 😢🙏🏻
You don't have to. You can't choose joy. People who lost loved ones need to go through GRIEF period. You need to process all emotions good/bad to go up emotional scale. If you are JOY instead of MOURN then you are a crazy wife.
I am so sorry for your loss! I feel your pain. And cannot began to imagine what you are going through. Yet I can relate. My Mom suffered 25 days after a botched surgery. It is almost 8 months since she died and that we were denied a post mortem, 7 months since the faulty coffin that made her coffin fall when being lowered...life is hard... ...but God is my source of strength. He is with me comforting me...I call upon Him..i continually cry my heart out to Him, esp when I think about my Mom (who could not see) ALONE with those medical people who knew what they were doing would hurt her kidney.... May GOD comfort and strengthen you in this storm and complete shift of life! Call upon God even more...Psalm 34 says He us close to the brokenhearted. Let yourself be vulnerable...grief needs its own time...has its own brain-but don't allow grief to overcome you! Remember Gratitude for the time you had with your precious husband and life partner. Keep gratitude for what God has done for you in calling you out of darkness and see him walk with you and deliver you from the worst of this. God is Faithful! God blesses you and is with you in this valley! ❤ ua-cam.com/video/p4rRCjrAyCs/v-deo.html Hills and Valleys

“How do you choose joy when your heart is being shattered into pieces?”--all I can think of is finally, someone understands what it’s like to be depressed. Whether it’s for 4 weeks or 40 years. This is what depression is. Not knowing how to choose joy when our hearts are shattered. Seems like Rick found a way, it’s possible.
I too struggle with what I call suicidal depression just like Matthew. I too have lived with mental illness all of my life and unless a person has serious depression, they have no idea what it's like to live in hell day to day. Yes, finally someone understands what it's like to live with debilitating depression and tell about it. Rick Warren watched his son, Matthew, commit suicide because the pain of extreme depression is so great, it is incomprehensible unless one has this type of debilitating and unrelenting depression. Thank you Rick for talking openly about Matthew's depression. You are helping people by doing so. We are not alone. Suicide is the 10th leading cause of death in the United States.

@@jfender8023 Oh yes, make us feel guilty for our brain telling us to kill ourselves. Certainly not helping here. No. We who struggle with suicidal depression cry out to God, and we get no answer, Notta. God performs miracles, but he does not always answer the way we ask. God has not taken this life-threatening thorn from my flesh. Please know that God does not cure all. I cry out to Him knowing he hears me and I will be in Heaven someday. For now, I must suffer a horrible mental, spiritual, and physical hell life on this earth due to suicidal depression. Please don't quote Bible guilt to people who's brain is telling us to end our lives. That is of no help to me whatsoever.
@@jadegreenjade Your brain telling you to kill yourself ? Listen to your prayer to Satan Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits. Ask God to help you , pray in the name of Jesus the Christ For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart. So shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it.

My brain has been hit, traumatized to the point it no longer functions normally. People like you who blame people like me for having serious physical brain abnormalities. TBI's, 58 stitches to my head from a violent car crash, electrocuted as a child, horrific bike accident (brain trauma), sexually abused/ptsd, beaten, tortured, given away. And more, but too private to discuss here. So, please be quiet. My brain has been rewired from too many injuries. Football players, military veterans deal with TBI's, ptsd, serious brain injuries and some take their own lives because their brains no longer functions normally, why can't you get this through your head. I talk with God all the time, as the intrusive thoughts to kill myself daily play out in my head. Pastor Rick said Matthew had told him that his pain was too great, his brain ruled his thought life. But, you don't get it, you'll never understand because you are not like Matthew, and you are not like me. You don't struggle with Matthew's or my suicidal depression. So, you have no idea what you're talking about. Please stop preaching, harassing me. You do not suffer from suicidal depression. Do you. No. So please stop blaming me for my brain's intrusive thoughts to kill myself. Stop telling me about satan/lucifer. I talk with God as intrusive thoughts tell me to kill myself. You have NO idea what you're talking about. Not a clue. It's people like you who guilt people like me into going ahead and killing myself. So, I will not answer you again. You do NOT struggle with suicidal depression like Matthew did, like I do now, or you wouldn't be repetitively blaming me and my spiritual life (you probably blame Matthew too) for these rote crazy-making deadly daily thoughts. Please stop harassing me on youtube. I feel like you are stalking me on youtube. Please stop.
Yes. YES. This is so true. In my experience, people run for the exit doors when you suffer a tragedy of this magnitude. You become a societal leper. If only we all had the resources offered to us that Rick Warren had. Trauma is very isolating and that makes it even harder to bear.
Small groups meet in most Churches. You need to find your sisters in Christ who stand with you during the times of hardship. They will come to your side and walk with you through it. Please find such a group ❤️
Try to reach out to your local churches and check if they have small groups that you can join. I believe they are more than happy to welcome you. My hisband and i have a small bible study group and we virtually meet every other Friday to draw strength from one another and study the bible and live the bible. We need to be in fellowship especially at this pandemic times.
You guys are to be so excited your in so much pain because where there's a lot of pain there's a lot of reason for God manifest in your life, Read your bibles about what Jesus already did for you what he has said about you and believe in your hearts that Pain is only there to gain revelation of wisdom of healing that you would have never had if it wasn't for the pain and it grows your testimony of reasons to believe the next time someone asks, why do you believe what you believe...
“The deeper the pain the fewer words you use” “Show up and shut up” I have to implement this with my son who has been struggling with mental illness since he was little boy and is still is struggling as a 23-year-old man! This past week has been a difficult one! Please 🙏 for us!
@@pastormichaeltodd3978 stop impersonating people for money that will not be able to save your soul when the consequences of your dubious activities come upon you. Stop it now!!...
I will pray for you, I have a 20 year old who has had 3 stays at a psych ward with severe depression, self harm and suicidal.....I feel your pain and your struggles.
The Lord be with him and your family....I am struggling with the pain of suicide and I don't wish it to anyone...may the.Lord please show our kids how much it pains us parents when they are in this sad place...may the Lord heal and protect him...
I just want to say, if this might help. I've had depression all my life, and what helped me is seeing a naturopath, who advised me to change my nutrition because so many chemicals are in the food we eat that it affects our overall health, especially our hormones. We overlook that factor but it's not all mental, it's mostly physical and nutrition. Praying for everyone who is battling with this illness.
People have gone on diets that require eating food just as God made it and they’ve cured their cancer! Diet is HUGE, and instead pills are pushed on us and they don’t actually cure us.
@@prh. I'm not an expert but if anyone has been feeling extremely sad and afraid due to trauma, it is best to seek help from a reputable naturopath that can help in dealing with trauma, stress and anxieties. These are alternative methods that worked for me, also prayer and meditation. I know I sound like a weird hippie but I can tell a million stories about how fish oil helped my moods and anxieties. Hormones play a big role in our behavior, emotion and response, so people should look into these alternatives.
Does this make sense? Judas was tormented by demons before he hung himself. Children are tormented by bullies before they take their precious lives... Soldiers are tormented by painful memories before they can't handle anymore.... Pray these aweful spirits away! Rebuke these evil snakes!
@@MissMuttonmeat I agree with you the mind brakes down. I know because mine does and the best people pray for me, cast out and anoint me. The pain goes away but it comes back to haunt me. I have fasted for 40 days many times, and it doesn’t go away. It’s an illness like cancer. But i have hope Jesus will make this go away forever. I will never lose hope. I have three little kids that i love and they are my reason and my family too. They are my reason. And my mom in Heaven i don’t want to let her down.
I wouldn’t understand myself if I didn’t experience clinical depression 20 years ago , I received treatment in psychiatry clinic and recovered I believe Jesus healed me and that He knew my mind was ill and He approved treatment . It’s very hard to understand it’s truly illness chemical imbalance in brain like when person has an accident and loose memory that is also brain affected so this is how depression can happen it can be spiritual attack like Judas had but can be illness that need treatment but I wouldn’t understand this myself if it didn’t happen to me .
I love the phrase “show up and shut up”. So many people worry that they don’t know what to say or do when someone experiences a tragedy. That phrase confirms that you can just be present with someone, and that’s enough.
May Almighty God bless you I don't know you in person but God knows you. God showed to me a revelation when I was on your profile to see things around you,I saw blessings but spiritual attacks holding on to them,in prayers,i saw a woman in the realm of the spirit monitoring and plotting delay in your life, with an evil mirror, and a motive to destroy. But as I speak to you now her time is up, Render hand of favour with Anything you can afford to these motherless foundation (DIVINE MERCY ORPHANAGE HOME FOUNDATION) in Edo State Nigeria, before 2DAYS with faith, as I Rise my hands towards heaven and pray for you they shall serve as point of contact where ever you are, you will receive double portion of grace to excel and total restoration of breakthrough in your life and in the life of your family.

For it is not by might nor by power but of the spirit saith the lord (zechariah 4:6). You shall testify to the Glory of God.,,.
@@pastorrickwarren9874 I have been to your profile and there is nothing that would indicate that you are really Pastor Rick Warren. Pretending to be someone else would be deceit and that would be sin. I also think I saw a similar, maybe even the same, message as reply to another person. Jesus said it's a fearful thing to fall in the hands of the living God. Repent before it's too late.
I lost a brother to suicide in 2013. His statement: show up and shut up was spot on. I had one person who did just that. There are no words necessary because no words can ease that deep pain.
My husband committed suicide in March of 2019. I literally felt like someone cut my heart open and he walked out! I don’t no where he is now but l do know that God never allow something in our life without a purpose he is still the Lord of my life even though I’m still in pain l can make it because of the finished work on the cross. Keep the faith Saints.

My son committed suicide 2/26/21. He was 32 and had struggled with depression, due to his father’s committing suicide several years prior. He had started attending church, yet couldn’t bear the pain. I am still dealing with it and struggle with where he will be and if I’ll see him again. My heart is broken.
Jesus loves you so much. He would have come To this world even if it was just YOU alone here in this world.He loves you and He wants you to experience Him.

This thug collaborated with Jerry Falwell Sr. to charge all Liberty Students $7 for that book called Purposes Driven Life.

My son committed suicide July 2, 2019 I listened to Rick Warren’s whole story on this several times. It was a life saver when my son died. I feel like I will never be healed. My heart is still so broken.
I say this with as much sensitivity as I can. The pain must be hard but... I genuinely believe that Jesus came to bound up the broken-hearted. You can be healed.

This touched me so deeply. My best friend i grew up with took her own life on August 5 2020 and it's been such a hard time, I've been a Christian all my life but this event took alot out of me because I've had so many tragic events in my life and I know the Lord is always with me but this event hit me hard , I'm in a state of emotional numbness from these attacks on my life since I was born . I know my Savior Jesus is always with me I'll never deny that but I just can't wait to get out of this wilderness. I pray for the healing of everyone who's ever lossed a loved one to suicide my heart is with you!
I’m sorry for your loss. My best friend too took his life on August 7th 2018 and my life turned upside down. I know your feeling to my very core. I pray for you and your healing.
The devil will always want us to believe we cannot be healed. I do not know what he went thru i can only emphasize with him. But know the devil is always at work, he will not rest until he takes us all to burn in hell with him.
When I lost my mom to cancer, after already losing my dad of a sudden death, those who just hugged me and cried with me gave me the most comfort. The most heartbreaking thing was well meaning people,and yet clueless, who would tell me “at least she’s in a better place and not suffering”.

Life is a torture test and we prove our love for God by enduring torture. He hands us over to demons to be tested and tortured just like Job, Jesus, and John. We get a better reward if endure the torture with a smile.
I know how your son felt. I deal with depression on a daily basis. I try hard to inform others that mental illness and being clinically depressed can not be corrected by thinking better or even doing good things. It can help one catch a break but not for long. Some of us are still hanging on with hope. Suicide is a sign that the pain is unbearable. I have been in the hospital three times due to suicide. My pain is the witness of how I can help others push through. I always feel available to share my story because many people just need to feel relatable. This is very important. I totally agree. The deeper the pain, the fewer the words.
Don't let your pain overtake you. Plead The Blood Of Jesus Over Yourself ! Tell the Devil to Shut Up & Go in Jesus Holy Name. I was Delivered From Being Suicidal 4 years ago, I've been Free From those thoughts since. Glory To The Most High God
There is hope for you! Research ISAIAH SALDIVAR. Depression and suicide is not a "torn in the flesh!" God loves you and want to heal you completely. I have been delivered from this and you can too. Praying for you!
Dear Pastor Rick, 2:30am here in Tsv Australia I am listening to your testimony repeatedly. What you have just shared really lifted my heart, *The deeper the pain the fewer words we use*. I lost my 16 year old son through suicide. I found him myself. I prayed this way, Lord please have mercy upon me. Anyway long story short, he stayed another 3 more days in ICU and passed on. I pleaded to our Father in Heaven, nothing happened. My last words were, Lord I asked but You did not give me my son back - But I will still follow and serve You. It was that very moment my life shifted. I truly believe and know there is nothing that takes God by surprise. He is God and He change NOT. He is still sitted on His Throne AMEN 🙏. I pray God's Divine Healing, Favour and Excellence upon your Ministry and it is in Jesus Name I pray AMEN 🙏🙏🙏
I did overcome depression by a book about identity in Jesus Christ. It changed my life. I was heavy depressed. Didnt want to life anymore and now I feel good. It is possible. Please if you have depression read your bible, its part of who you are.

My Niece Amy struggled with depression & ultimately finally took her own life. My sister & husband were crushed,& devastated. I thank God your testimony helped them. My wife Marianna now to has had a nervous breakdown due to Pandemic & recent situations & needs a miracle from God, please pray for my wife.
I pray for your wife that the right hand of God be upon your wife now in Jesus Name. May God's peace envelope her total being in Jesus Name. May God give you the wisdom to help her out in JESUS NAME. Thank you Jesus for answering our prayers.
When I read that his son committed suicide I cried. I asked myself how do a parent get over this? I had a discussion with my son who just turned 18 years old and daughter who was 10 years old and told them whatever happens to you remember that I'm here for you no matter how hard you feel your life is. I love you unconditionally ❤. Yes we all go thru hardship but GOD IS MERCIFUL AND HIS GRACE IS AMAZING. 🙏

I have experienced similarly.. we and our son searched the world !!! my son is still alive.. unexplainable.. it’s broken beyond torture.. oh my may my son overcome and I may share with u someday.. love and blessings!!
I’m so sorry about your son Rick! I lost my Dad 17 years ago and my mom too last year. It has been the darkest time of my life for me but I’m still believing that there will be a turn of events some day. I pray that this pain will bring out my greatest ministry and give hope to thousands of people going through what I went through!
Suicide is almost always caused by very deep pain, by feeling like a burden. Mostly it is caused by feeling hopeless. When hope is gone, suicide seems like the best solution. Who in your life is suffering in silence? If you start observing there are always signs

@@brandon6231 No Matsui has the right to feel and express his experience. He isn't sick. Judge not. What we do to others God, the just just GOD will return to us with interest.
Suicide cannot take place UNLESS God lets one go. God has to allow it. It is up to God, so trying to post here what suicide is is fruitless. Suicide is self-murder that only can happen IF GOD lets it happen. None of us know a thing about it. Only GOD knows.
I totally agree. I’m wondering why he doesn’t mention that. Torment of the mind is not from God. It’s totally demonic. The Bible says “I have not given you a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” They needed a deliverance to happen in this situation. So sad.😢
As christian god has given us authority to bind this evil spirit of suicide and we must rebuke them in the name of jesus god has promised us to give us victory over satan and demons we will trample on serpents and scorpions and nothing will harm us jesus on the cross has accomplished for us the church of god
Idk how this was recommended to me !! But it’s so crazy bc my brother took his life also. It’s very hard and unimaginable. Thank you pastor. Thank you lord! 🙏 RIP GILBERTO JR
Sad to be here again. Unfortunately I am going through this all over again. My brother in law took his life 2 days ago .😢 get help people please . Lookout for one another. God bless everyone.

Please do not give up.. I don't know what you are going through but I am here to tell you that you're not alone, you are important, you are loved and you are special to God. The enemy lies and says that you are worthless because the world doesn't know God. Homeless? I was homeless for 2 years living on streets. Sick? I was sick for a very long time in hospitals as a kid... Depressed and suicidal? I survived multiple suicidal attempts God has kept me alive so I can tell you that he is faithful, he is real and he loves you so much God is keeping you alive for a reason. God can change things and He is faithful.
When my daughter was about 16 she says to me, "if life is this hard, why do I want another 70 years of it?" 😐 What do you say to that..? I told her you haven't even been through the good times yet. Having your own place, go on vacations, been in love, a parent. She's 21 now and in a very "good place" she's happy. I tell her how proud and impressed I am that she got herself through a very tough time. She's proud of herself and optimistic and has a desire to succeed in all facets of her life 🙏
@@deustaitan When you accept the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and savior, he gives you a spiritual life and spiritual strengh to go through every situations. The Holy spirit will make you a victor, his living word will give you faith and hope for the future and you will not be desapointed ! I tell you the power of God is connected to his presence. All we have to do is to know him better and act on his word by faith
It doesn't matter what is happening around you always keep your eyes upon Jesus and what He Promised and don't be afraid no matter how tall the problems are in your life. No matter how strong the storms are in your life don't be afraid they will not crush you Jesus is Standing beside you holding you by your right hand and is telling you to stay calm and do not look around and do not be afraid, Jesus did not gave you spirit of fear, but Power, Love and Sound Mind. Even if you don't understand what is happened in your life or why life is getting so hard and stressful, Trust God and His Son Jesus and Surrender all of yourself to Holy Spirit Who is working in your life and in your broken heart 💔 Holy Spirit is working in your life and in your family 👪even when you don't see it. When you don't see the way from all the storms that are getting bigger and bigger in your life by surrounding you without letting to see Jesus, always remember even when you don't see Jesus Standing beside you because of the storms that are getting taller and bigger in your life, always remember Jesus is always been there and always will be there by your side, holding you by your right hand 😊❤💙
Our condolences Pastor Rick. I can truly relate to your feelings. We also lost our son two and a half years ago in 2018. Also by suicide! The worst part is that he was in America and we live in South Africa. He came to visit us in Cape Town early August 2018. He was a beautiful young man 41yrs old. The day he left the airport in Cape Town to go back to the US, he, my wife and I were still talking about making plans to join him and his wife in the US. Little did we know that he would take his own life in September. We are still shattered to this day. We have never had any closure as he was cremated in the US. We also lost our daughter on July 4th 2015. She died from natural causes but both our children suffered depression. My wife and I still wonder and blame ourselves for their conditions. Presently we are so depressed ourselves and suicide is sitting very high up on my agenda. We are pensioners and struggling to make ends meet. Life just does'nt feel worth it some days. My wife is a devout Christian and optimistic but me I am totally opposite at this stage. I feel like my life is done here on earth. I would much rather be with my children.
@Philip,, don't lose hope,It's not over until God says it's over,,hold onto the faith,,,James 1:: Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters,whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.4 Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.
When my daughter committed suicide, she left a note. She wanted to be cremated end I have her ashes in a teddy bear, I can hold her still. I also kept some of her clothes, I can still smell her. She is never far from me. She apologised to God, for that I think she had enormous courage. Rip Matthew and Alison.
This was the best explanation I've ever heard about pain and suffering and pastor Rick gave the best answer a dad could give in a situation like this. Ultimately our children make their own choices.
I've been depressed for a couple of months now. I've been depressed because I'm not sure if I'm truly born again. I believe in Jesus. I pray every day. But I have not been changed. I want to live for Him, but I just... cannot. I read the Bible and just cry, because I can't do it. I can't do it, I can't feel His love and I can't love Him back. I've been suicidal too. I just want to find God 😞
Dont stop praying, dont stop spending time with God, reading, singing, doing good deeds for people who need help. Its just a season, it will pass. The enemy will do anything to knock you off your path. Stay strong 💕
My heart goes out to Pastor Warren and all families affected by suicide. My 29 year old sister took her own life almost 30 years ago, after a life long battle with bipolar disorder. In that moment, I lost the best friend I will ever have. The shock and pain have lessened over the years, but I still feel so sad that she missed out on all the joy life has to offer. Watching her 2 children grow and achieve advanced degrees. The permanence of suicide is what is so hard to accept.
I have had deep depression, wanting to take my life. After I switched to a Paleo diet, I began to feel better. Later, through functional medicine, I discovered that I have a variant on my MTHFR gene and can not detoxify mold. Despite being on a Paleo diet, I began to feel mentally horrible after moving my classroom into a temporary, moldy school building. Slowly, I started losing my mind and knew something more was going on because suddenly, I took a turn for the worse. If you are struggling with depression, consider food sensitivities and/or toxins that your body isn’t equipped to get rid of. The brain is very sensitive to heavy metals, mold, Lyme disease and other biotoxins! But, it is reversible! I’m proof. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thanks for your sweet response, God has really been wonderful to us all, may his name be parise, you seem to be a God fearing person right 😃, that's amazing...by the way nice meeting you on here, I hope you are having a wonderful time out there right 😃, have a blessed day out there 🙏..
My wonderful took his life June 28/22. His life was torture due to depression. He had 2 different types, and was never happy. I’m trying to move on with Jesus.
This was me. Literally. I suffered tremendously with major depressive disorder and panic disorder during most of my younger years all the way through my 20’s. Mental illness runs on both sides of my family. I was raised in the church however I was taught and firmly believe it is ALWAYS God’s will to heal. It’s up to us to receive it by faith. Unbelief will choke out your faith. You can have both faith and unbelief at the same time. You have to get rid of all unbelief. I tried many, many medications, was in and out of the mental hospital several times in my 20’s and was mentally tortured beyond belief. There were times I wanted out of my misery but always believed God had a good life and great future for me and I KNEW healing was his will. That’s what I held onto, even in my darkest, darkest days and hours. Eventually, the lord led me to people that helped heal my mind from the root cause of mineral and vitamin deficiency. I talked to a person who had a brother with the worst case of schizophrenia doctors had ever seen, who has now been medication free for over 50 years and has several children and grandchildren. I was skeptical until I got on a natural food-derived vitamin regimen that literally healed every part of my mind. Medication does nothing but cover up the symptoms, it does absolutely nothing to heal the root cause. Today I am 37 years old, married with 2 little children and am currently pregnant with my 3rd. I’ve been medication free since 2012 and I praise GOD for my healing!!! If you suffer from mental illness connect with me, I can help. God bless you all!
Am so thankful to have found this testimony! My daughter took her life 6 months ago. She struggled with depression and anxiety since her teenage years. It's a pain like no other and I never thought in a million years, that this would be my life.
Yes.. i agree Rick. God spoke to me vocally “i have a purpose for your pain.”...God knows how deep my pain is...I’ve longed to be free of this pain but I’m becoming grateful for it. Ive struggled with metal health..terrible things happened to me before i was 2 then after i was adopted. I want to embrace my pain..please pray for me so i can partner with God in my pain and use it to bring souls to His heart forever.
My mom prayed her whole life for me and she has passed. I am still considered disabled due to a mental illness. They say I have schizophrenia. I have also been told they think I have PTSD. I have much anxiety and have depression too. I remember trying to read the Bible aloud thinking maybe it would somehow get rid of the voices but the voices just mocked me and it. People may tell you to pray it away but I think that is like trying to pray diabetes away or cancer away. I am not saying prayer won't help or that some won't heal. It's just that I can't pray my mental issues away. I thought long ago when I said that prayer of inviting Jesus into your heart that it would somehow miraculously fix me. It still hasn't. Sometimes I think people like me are broken because we do live in a broken world as he said.
It hurts so much to live with mental illness and be in constant pain. I am so exhausted to live and keep the struggle up. There is nothing to do but keep managing the problem like he said.
Don't give up on yourself. Valium, meditation, and a stern mental hold. The most important is the stubborn determination of the mind. Reject it. Notice your 'triggers' and everytime you hear them say NO. Slowly slowly it can fade away.
Your not broken. Healing is the children's bread. Trust, believe, walk by faith. Speak his word over you circumstances regularly! And watch God begin to shift your situation. Jesus is Lord and he is not limited, for ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE FOR THOSE WHO BELIEVE! The devil is a liar! SPEAK YOUR HEALING WITH HIS WORD! And watch God Act! Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them. - Mark 11:23
I know exactly how you feel cause I’ve been there but I promise you it’s possible to healed. I could relate especially to the bit where you mentioned the voices would mock you and the Bible. God had to teach me to step in authority as a believer. We have powers over all powers of the enemy and serpents and scorpions and NOTHING shall harms us. Those voices are controlled my powers and spirits and as a child of God they are under you. You have authority over them. Please don’t give up and pray to God to lead you in the right prayers to combat these spirits trying to torment your mind or make you doubt Gods healing power. Like I said, I’ve been there and there are still times when the enemy tries it but I partner with God and rebuke it in the name of Jesus. Pray to God for the strength(cause we can’t do it by ourselves) and wisdom to combat it. Scriptures that helped me are 2corinthians10:3-5(hold the thoughts and voices captive and command them to submit to Jesus Christ) 2corinthians5:17(you are a NEW creation in Christ Jesus so ALL things are new. Not some things but all things) Luke10:18(As a child of God you have authority over ALL powers of the enemy. God has given you that authority so those voices have to flee) 2timothy1:7(God has given you the spirit of a sound mind... a BALANCED mind. You need to reject the notion that God is okay with you not having a sound mind and come to the agreement by FAITH that you have the spirit of sound mind and begin to decree and declare it over your life) Ephesians 1:22(God has put ALL things under the authority of Jesus which includes depression, intrusive thoughts, the voices. They are ALL under His authority so keep crying out to God) If you’ve tried all these things, please don’t give up. Keep walking in faith and trusting in God. By the stripes of Jesus you are healed and you have been delivered. The enemy gets us to doubt and question Gods word. He wants to make God look like a liar in our lives so we can lose our faith. That’s all satan wants. For us to stop believing in Jesus. I’ve prayed for you and I’ll continue praying cause I’ve been there and I know how hard it is but I know that God is a healer and restorer. I stand in faith with you and decree and declare in Jesus Name that those voices will no longer have access to your mind
Explorer...everyone here has said it all! Pray and never ever give up. That's what the enemy wants. Determine you're never going to give him that joy . We'll be praying with you
Thank you for this. My husband has major depressive disorder and anxiety. He has tried once already to commit suicide and I am concerned on a daily basis that I’ll find him dead. I try not to worry but I know he is daily in pain mentally and is tired of the fight. We are Christians. All I can do is pray for God’s strength and healing daily.
Lord cover this woman and her family in the name of Jesus. Create in her husband a clean heart and renew a right spirit, your spirit within him. ❤🙏 Love you and praying for your family.
Waw! Didn’t expect this one 😣!! But this video gives me hope! We are all broken, the goal is not to be perfect nor things .. it’s how we handle pain’! Ah Holy Spirit sustain those who seek you 🤍 Amen.
My father died from a fentanyl overdose last year on August 14th 2022. I read a comment here that said the greater the pain the fewer the words, and I have not been able to discuss my fathers death with anyone for almost an entire year, not even my brother. He was everything to me, there’s no way to explain the amount of love I had for my dad to anyone, so how can I ever begin to explain to anyone the amount of sadness I carry…
I lost my wife 7 years ago and she was only 27. I have not been the same since. I don't laugh like i used to and smile like I used to. I have 2 kids with her. I still don't know what to feel about her sudden passing
I am so sorry for you loss. I am praying for you. Give the pain to Jesus and He will comfort and heal you by the power of His Holy Spirit. GOD is close to the broken hearted and he is the mender of broken hearts. Jehova Rapha heal the heart of this man and let your peace and love guard his heart and mind. In Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Prayers for healing
almost 3 years ago, at almost 22 years old i almost took my own life. I was abused as a kid, broken, depressed, anorexic, bulimic, suicidal. I went in & out of psych units like it was a game of Chess. Suicide watch. I was on enough Antidepressants to kill a horse. I hated myself. I wanted out. I wanted the pain to stop. The gaslighting* to end. *(when a psycho makes a sane person question their own sanity, and thus think they themselves are the insane one).
I wanted power. I got into witchcraft. I thought it would give me the identity i wanted, to be set apart from people who hurt me. It only made me sicker. Sicker. Thats what it did to me.
The doctors said i’dnever get well. That i would suffer severe Chronic Manic depression, and never be well, that id be stuck on antidepressants all of my life.
I would plot suicide on a daily basis, binging and purging my food as often as opening and closing a door. The pain was too real. People choked me. Assaulted me. Told me i was ugly, i felt worthless. Nothing ever got better. Then my mother died. The (1) & only soul who ever loved /emotionally supported me was removed from the earth. I was stuck living with people who broke me, ruined my identity, thus causing me to hate God. I thought God hated me, that he was just like the ones who tortured me, a family of abusers, who cover up all their actions with the mask of religion. I didnt know that God is on my side. I didnt know that Jesus would Love and Defend me, and fight for me and that He later would heal me, rescue me from Family. The ones who caused me pain. The ones who choked me for wearing a necklace.
I moved out after family threatened to throw all my belongings on the front yard, and have me permanently institutionalized in an insane asylum, when they were the ones who caused my mental illness via abuse.
They blamed me for the abuse they did to me.
To take my life in an insane asylum when they were the ones who made me suicidal.
Next morning i spoke with my dead moms parents who let me live with them.
I stayed on the antidepressants, prescribed. But they only made me sicker. I got deeper and deeper into witchcraft, thinking it was a solution. But it made me even more suicidal. Self hatred was inescapable. All my cards have fallen down. I have nothing left. But out. I wanted out.
I decided i was going to kill myself. I was going to take all my pills.
But then Jesus stepped in. I didnt die. I surrendered my life to Jesus to make me well and heal me.
The deity i blamed for me being abused wanted to heal me. He Was fighting for me and Loved me all along.
He wanted to love me. He wanted to give me His Heart.
HE LOVES ME. JESUS. LOVES. ME .
Jesus miraculously healed me - i am off all drugs and dont need them and i dont have any mental illnesses. I have a job and am totally healed , full of joy.
I’m now a born again Christian, in my 20’s who wants the entire world to know that JESUS WANTS TO HEAL YOU
HE. LOVES. YOU.
God bless you bro....
Your story makes me want to cry. I’m so happy that Jesus saved you right on time. You are loved, brother, praise God!
Duet 33:27 The eternal God is your refuge & underneath are the everlasting arms. If God is for u who can be against u...I praise God for what He did in your life, what a wonderful testimony u have.
What a ministry you have to help others may God's grace and peace continue to help heal others
Praise God for revealing himself to you. What a great testimony. You are loved!!! Be blessed and be a blessing to others, that stuck in these dark places!!!
God help us all...to be sensitive,loving and supportive to all christians ...as we are all siblings in God's family. Lord Jesus, in Your Name!
It’s also important to mention when we’re continuing to pray and have hope of a healing god can change how you feel towards the situation, he can change how you think and he can lessen the physical pain. I’ve had this happen where the problem and health issues are still there but you feel, and think differently, and the physical pain can be bearable or lowered down. God and faith work in many ways. When you feel disheartened the problems are still there you can feel so differently about them and optimistic for life when normally you wouldn’t.
Wow. So well said! I experienced that when my son as 16 year old who lost his dad as a 11year old could pray for a younger boy who just lost his father. God is good ALL the time!

Tormented Mind😭😭😭
God Bless Pastor Rick one of my spiritual mentors
My son passed away on 2019 May 14th on Tuesday at 9am in the morning, and I almost committed suicide the next day that was 15th on a Wednesday when my son was at the mortuary, I was about to do it and also did it but then I realised that me thinking that I was ending my pain was just passing it out to the rest of my surviving family, I want you to know that I feel you pain Sir and theirs not a moment goes by when I don't think about my son, the sad thing is living and realizing that the world continues as if they never existed so its up to us to keep their memories burning, I lost everything while dealing with depression, I lost my job my wife and now am just trying to survive every day that comes, my son was only 8months old and he passed away of pneumonia, he was our only child and up to this day I know God had a reason for what happened although it took me long to realize that I will always pray for him
There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. 1 Corinthians 10:13
I empathize with Pastor Rick and his family. I can't imagine the pain they've gone through.
I have great respect for you Pst Rick Warren🧚🏻♂️
Thanks for your sweet response, God has really been wonderful to us all, may his name be parise, you seem to be a God fearing person right 😃, that's amazing...by the way nice meeting you on here, I hope you are having a wonderful time out there right 😃, have a blessed day out there 🙏
Yes, the purpose driven life was nothing having had to do anything about salvation for sinners!
God bless you.
I have lost two Sons to suicide. One was an Iraq vet. The other a married man with children. Neither one left an indication. That suicide was on their mind.
Neither instance made sense at all. No one knows why o ever will know. God and time are the only cure for my pain of loss.
I am so very sorry!!! It's hard enough to go.through one suicide (my sister was a victim in '94) much less two!!! But please know your Heavenly Father sees your pain and is able to comfort you. And brothers and sisters in Christ love you also and would willingly put you on their prayer list....
Wow!
When I hear "six million children in slavery," I'm gobsmacked. Just so hard to believe that there's that much evil present in our world
Pls say a prayer for my son Ethan!!!!

I have done only 2nd year high school only though i wanted to be something but my father Put me in heart Pains and i didn't knew how to be with People outside but i learned somehow and i am thankful to JESUS CHRIST that i can speak clearly and Express now well from my heart.

Deception is a terrible thing, i knew of a guy who thought bc he was a Christian he would make it to heaven, even if he did suicide. He did end up necking himself, and I hate to think where he might be bc no murderer shall enter the kingdom of heaven. But then again we dont full know the power and love of God so who r we to say where one goes when they die, God has the final say on everything.

I know what deep depression feels like. I lost my 12yo daughter, Lana, on Feb 24, 2020. I can’t even choose joy when I wake up everyday with a broken and empty heart. I only manage to live day to day for my 14yo daughter, Jadyn who witnessed her sister get ran over by a truck. I long to be in the presence of our Lord, Jesus. Jesus... please come soon! 🙏🏼
🙇♀️❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
So sorry
Prayers for you and your healing journey-I’m so sorry for your loss. Lost my son almost 2 yrs ago-suicide.
The loss of a child is so very hard. You are not alone-please reach out.
I now run a grief group for parents that have lost a child-through my pain-I have helped so many-and it has helped me as well.
The pain gets better-I promise. But there is always an ache in your heart that comes up and the most unexpected times. It’s Mother’s Day and I have been crying all day. But I know-through my faith-I will push through.
You will too. Keep pushing, praying
I ask Holy Spirit to wrap his arms around me every night so I can sleep.
I’m so sorry Regina. Sending you and your daughter love.
I can’t imagine what you must feel and how Jayden must feel too. 🙏
People have empathy for a broken body, but very little for a broken mind. Thank you for sharing this painfull story and help people to understand that chronic depression is reall and thank you for sharing your story. Job’s friends understood the ministry for only one week. they kept quiet and then they blew it! Can soo relate to this
😂😂😂concerning Job's friends
@@lynette4412 🤣💀
❤️🙏🏼
Sounds like a broken spirit and not a broken mind, demon possession.
amen
Christians need to stop saying ppl that commit suicide go to hell BC one no one knows a man’s heart except God . Two only God can send someone to heaven or hell he is the ultimate judge.Three the only sin he will not forgive us for is blasphemy the Holy Ghost. . Defiling the temple can be over eating, tanning ,being stressed . Stop telling others their family went to hell ... it’s not right .
Exactly.
REAL Christians don't say that. Just the judging, religious type say that.
@@michellecolombo9884 , it can be a Christian saying it, they are just not mature in their faith, or have an erroneous belief about it.
I would agree to not constantly say it to those going through it but that act is a lack of faith
You are wrong my dear.
Our Caitlyn died by suicide at 12 years old. We miss her so much. She was precious and beautiful. We will never be the same. It changed our life forever. Rip Caitlyn.
Forever 12
My thoughts and prayers.
Wow! I’m so sorry!! 🌷
So sorry for your loss. Praying 🙏🏾🙏🏾
My sympathy to you.
So sorry to hear, must be a hard time for you... May you find peace and hope in the name of Jesus. God is close to the broken hearted. ❤️
I believe that God has called me to minister to people who are struggling with mental health. Pray with me for strength and power as I embark on this journey.
May Holy Spirit work profoundly in you for this important ministry...in Jesus name. Amen.
May the Lord bless you and confirm you in this ministry.
This is a wonderful ministry to go into. Read the scriptures for guidance on it. God led me to ministry and has led me to deliverance. There a supernatural war going on and people are battling spiritual warfare. Suicide is on the rise and there is a spirit behind it. Look in the scriptures at the two people who killed themselves, the scriptures say they were taken over by Satan. King Saul was being tormented by familiar spirits. That allow us to know that depression is a spiritual attack from the enemy. Jesus tells is to cast out demons and not to be deceived. Claim.the blood of Jesus and know that through Jesus the enemy has to leave. God bless you !!
Sheeeeesh out here making the benchmark for your ministry for us all to witness!! May God bless you during your journey!! Thank you!!
So be it! In the name of Jesus 💌

This thug collaborated with Jerry Falwell Sr. to charge all Liberty Students $7 for that book called Purposes Driven Life. I was working a minimum wage job and $7 was too much for me for the book I did not need. I was so broke and I could not afford $7 at that time. I requested the students account office to remove that $7 from my account but the refused. You are talking of somebody exploiting you at your lowest point. Chickens have come home to roost.
So true when my mom died, I didn't talk... I was eleven and everyone wanted me to get therapy because I was so quiet...they thought I was traumatized...but what could I say... I didn't know what to say...but thankfully the Lord met me where I am at and helps me each and every day, so grateful💞

I pray that my son is covered by the blood of Jesus. I try to converse with him about different things, but he don't really open up to me. I feel that he is holding a lot of pain, hurt, disappointment, fear, anger, and un-forgiveness inside of him. I see videos like this, and it make me concern. I know how UA-cam work, and they use algorithms. But I don't think something like this pop up by accident. So, I pray that he will be alright in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen and Amen and Amen and Amen and Amen.
Praying for your son Ladenna. Don't allow fear to creep into you
As a parent GOD listens to ya prayers over ya son. I have used Psalms 138:7-8 and the blood of JESUS to detach my son's soul from every evil altar and have seen my son open up and is all jolly in the house, praise b to GOD. So don't give up keep praying and stay positive
I agree with this prayer,
Lord Send Labourers to Bring all the wayward son's & daughter's Home in Jesus Name
Surround them with a shield of Protection in Jesus Name
Amen & Amen 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Standing in agreement with every prayer spoken for your son. Expect a miracle 🙏🏼🕊🙌🏼❤️
This is rough. Faith doesn't deny reality. My youngest daughter struggles with depression. I know what he is talking about and my blood runs cold. Everyday I have to put her in Jesus' hands. The things she confesses to me are heartbreaking. I watched this transformation take my baby girl as she approached puberty. There was nothing I could do but watch her fall apart. Now she is 23. We just celebrated her birthday. Never stop praying for and loving your child. Ever! Trust God's grace. The cross was enough. This is our only hope and sanity and why people need Jesus.
soo agreed.I put both sons in God's hands. I know God loves them more. Mercy Me's, Even If, inspires me. Plus We DO NOT GO THROUGH ANY PAIN OR SUFFERING that can MATCH OR SURPASS WHAT CHRIST WENT THROUGH FOR US! Rather people want to recognize this or not. We are in a VERY REAL SPIRITUAL BATTLE. What enemy meant for evil God can use for our good n HIS GLORY. CHRIST is STILL coming back.
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thomas davenport: your daughter has a demon and rick son had a demon of depression. You have get a deliverance buy a real pastor that has the power of the holy spirit. Its the only way wheither you believe in or not. Its demon oppression. Jesus is still alive and he can deliver her from the torment. Look up these guys and go to them and you will see uour daughter healed. VLAD SAVCHUK AND BOB LARSON! Its hard to say this but ricks son died because they dont believe in deliverance i could tell but his speech. But you can believe and girl your daughter freed please!
It’s a real suffering to watch our children go through such agonizing pain. I have two sons, one with mental illness since 17 and the other with severe anxiety both recovering from addictions; especially my younger son. Each and every day I pray for them, constantly. Such heartbreak, but I will never , ever give up. I continually trust in my Lord.
@@alg2250This is a damaging statement that brings an unnecessary burden. How dare you put those Spiritual burdens on another member of the body. Jesus' burden is light and yoke is easy and would never speak to His children the way you have.
I'm in pain every day. stuck in what feels like emotional quicksand. My passion for life is nonexistent rt now. I can't imagine ever feeling well again. Everything hurts.
When I wake up reality rushes back into my mind and heart.
I know my lord and my faith is strong .I couldn't go through this without his comfort .
I lost my son 3 months ago. Joey was 26. I found him in the morning and held him as I prayed and cried. It was diabetes related we believe... still don't know for sure.
I miss his voice ,his face ,his way , his intelligence, his love, I miss being whole. I miss talking to him, his attitude, his laugh , I miss my baby boy .
I miss being who I was.
I know one day I'll be reunited with him.
I can't wait 🙏
Lord please stay close to me. I'll be needing you more then ever. Jesus I love you.
It’s the kind of tired sleep won’t fix.

I felt this one
My son committed suicide on February 22nd, 2021. His Birthday would have been yesterday. He would have been 41. I am so sad.
I have a group of people surrounding me. I do not know what I would do without them, to this day, Mother’s Day, 2021.
He was loved for all he had done over his life in helping others too. I am still in shock, but also pain. I try to suit up and show up for the most part, but honestly it’s going to be awhile longer before I’m strong enough to help anyone with the kind of strength shown here. I will someday, but till then I’m just trying to be with God in solitude, and writing what God gives me to do.
I am so so sorry for the loss of your son. 😥
God bless you. Praying for your journey and that you find peace.
@@brightmeadow820 Thank you. His death has affected our grandchildren, his family and friends. It is devastating.
@@chitayslas4221 Thank you for your prayers. Our grandchildren are are very sad, as are other family members and his dear friends.

Brother Warren, I lost my 24-year-old daughter to suicide. This has been over 2 years ago. I have never experienced anything as painful in all my life. May God continue to carry you and your wife daily. My wife and I have never been the same. We also hold on to the grace of God. The words God has given you in this short video are precious and meaningful. I hope everyone who has been touched by this type tragedy can take away: you are not alone, and God’s grace will empower you to not waste your one drop of your pain. I write all this with great humility.
My sister committed suicide in 2014. All I know about suicide is that it's the most tragic death to get over for those who knew that person, let alone the parents. May God's love enfold you.
I’m so sorry to read this 😢 I’m sorry for your pain. May you find peace. 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
This thug collaborated with Jerry Falwell Sr. to charge all Liberty Students $7 for that book called Purposes Driven Life.

I had a troubled childhood, grew up depressed. There were times I had wished that I was not born into this world at all. Had I not found the love of Jesus Christ at the right time I wouldn't be here to watch this video today. The best treatment for extreme mental depression would be finding the love of jesus Christ ......
Yes
How dangerous it is to say people who commit suicide can go to heaven..
I was like you and also had mental problems
My parents were so successful like Rick
No one knew what was the problem in our family system
He is a human being
It is painful to go through those difficult times but don’t say that
Many People are being tempted to commit suicide
You are mislead people now..
Rick Warren has literally just said his son knew Jesus Christ, not everyone’s story is the same and not everyone’s path is easy.
Many saints suffered from depression. Suffering with depression is a heavy cross to carry. May Mathew RIP.

If you have ever experienced deep depression, there is nothing you want more than for the pain to stop and if that means going home to the Lord, you pray for that. It’s no different than having a broken bone that stays broken, except it’s your brain. Love to you and your family.
Thank you for saying this. Your comments are accurate and succinct. Thank you for understanding.
Thank you for your understanding and compassion. You are exactly right.

@@kennymarker4245, wow! Your ignorance regarding clinical depression is astounding!
Yup. This describes what it felt like for me in 2020-2021 where my younger sister had a personal issue that dragged the whole damn family in. Counting me, when I was doing lots of personal work, too. During that time period, I really wished to be put down either by God in my sleep, or through a person.
My mother suicided at age 21..left m 6 mths old brother, me 19mths old and sister 4yo. Dad a soldier has a heck of a ride . Life's been very hard so I'm pleading please don't suicide, the pain and destruction left behind is more than most can bear. Watch your families your friends, save them
@Farm Life, look up Ascension Presents video "Mercy After Suicide" by Father Chris Alar. It will heal you.
My husband killed himself five years ago. It’s changed me forever I lost my mind for a time and required 24-hour care.
You’re right: Suicides leave behind a swath of destruction that most folks can not imagine.

My husband just died today, he’s my best friend, my soulmate, the love of my life. He’s the best man I know. How can I choose joy?
Oh my goodness, I’m so sorry for your loss. It will take time, counseling, surrounding yourself with loved ones. I’ll pray for you and your family!! 😢🙏🏻
You don't have to. You can't choose joy. People who lost loved ones need to go through GRIEF period. You need to process all emotions good/bad to go up emotional scale. If you are JOY instead of MOURN then you are a crazy wife.
I am so sorry for your loss! I feel your pain. And cannot began to imagine what you are going through. Yet I can relate. My Mom suffered 25 days after a botched surgery. It is almost 8 months since she died and that we were denied a post mortem, 7 months since the faulty coffin that made her coffin fall when being lowered...life is hard...
...but God is my source of strength. He is with me comforting me...I call upon Him..i continually cry my heart out to Him, esp when I think about my Mom (who could not see) ALONE with those medical people who knew what they were doing would hurt her kidney....
May GOD comfort and strengthen you in this storm and complete shift of life! Call upon God even more...Psalm 34 says He us close to the brokenhearted.
Let yourself be vulnerable...grief needs its own time...has its own brain-but don't allow grief to overcome you! Remember Gratitude for the time you had with your precious husband and life partner. Keep gratitude for what God has done for you in calling you out of darkness and see him walk with you and deliver you from the worst of this. God is Faithful! God blesses you and is with you in this valley! ❤

“How do you choose joy when your heart is being shattered into pieces?”--all I can think of is finally, someone understands what it’s like to be depressed. Whether it’s for 4 weeks or 40 years. This is what depression is. Not knowing how to choose joy when our hearts are shattered. Seems like Rick found a way, it’s possible.
I too struggle with what I call suicidal depression just like Matthew. I too have lived with mental illness all of my life and unless a person has serious depression, they have no idea what it's like to live in hell day to day. Yes, finally someone understands what it's like to live with debilitating depression and tell about it. Rick Warren watched his son, Matthew, commit suicide because the pain of extreme depression is so great, it is incomprehensible unless one has this type of debilitating and unrelenting depression. Thank you Rick for talking openly about Matthew's depression. You are helping people by doing so. We are not alone. Suicide is the 10th leading cause of death in the United States.
"The lord is close to those that are crushed at soul and that are broken"
1 Corinthians 3:17
If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy that person, because God’s temple is holy and you are that temple.

@@jfender8023 Oh yes, make us feel guilty for our brain telling us to kill ourselves. Certainly not helping here. No. We who struggle with suicidal depression cry out to God, and we get no answer, Notta. God performs miracles, but he does not always answer the way we ask. God has not taken this life-threatening thorn from my flesh. Please know that God does not cure all. I cry out to Him knowing he hears me and I will be in Heaven someday. For now, I must suffer a horrible mental, spiritual, and physical hell life on this earth due to suicidal depression. Please don't quote Bible guilt to people who's brain is telling us to end our lives. That is of no help to me whatsoever.
@@jadegreenjade Your brain telling you to kill yourself ? Listen to your prayer to Satan
Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits.
Ask God to help you , pray in the name of Jesus the Christ
For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart. So shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it.
@@jfender8023 My prayer to satan (small s). Are you crazy? Must be. I'm only still here because I cry out to Father God daily. satan has no foothold here. My brain has been hit, traumatized to the point it no longer functions normally.
People like you who blame people like me for having serious physical brain abnormalities. TBI's, 58 stitches to my head from a violent car crash, electrocuted as a child, horrific bike accident (brain trauma), sexually abused/ptsd, beaten, tortured, given away. And more, but too private to discuss here.
So, please be quiet. My brain has been rewired from too many injuries. Football players, military veterans deal with TBI's, ptsd, serious brain injuries and some take their own lives because their brains no longer functions normally, why can't you get this through your head. I talk with God all the time, as the intrusive thoughts to kill myself daily play out in my head.
Pastor Rick said Matthew had told him that his pain was too great, his brain ruled his thought life. But, you don't get it, you'll never understand because you are not like Matthew, and you are not like me.
You don't struggle with Matthew's or my suicidal depression. So, you have no idea what you're talking about. Please stop preaching, harassing me. You do not suffer from suicidal depression. Do you. No. So please stop blaming me for my brain's intrusive thoughts to kill myself. Stop telling me about satan/lucifer. I talk with God as intrusive thoughts tell me to kill myself. You have NO idea what you're talking about. Not a clue.
It's people like you who guilt people like me into going ahead and killing myself. So, I will not answer you again. You do NOT struggle with suicidal depression like Matthew did, like I do now, or you wouldn't be repetitively blaming me and my spiritual life (you probably blame Matthew too) for these rote crazy-making deadly daily thoughts.
Please stop harassing me on youtube. I feel like you are stalking me on youtube. Please stop.
There's a lot of us with no 'small group' or 'buddies.' We go through terrible times alone ...
Yes. YES. This is so true. In my experience, people run for the exit doors when you suffer a tragedy of this magnitude. You become a societal leper.
If only we all had the resources offered to us that Rick Warren had.
Trauma is very isolating and that makes it even harder to bear.
You are never alone when Jesus is your best friend.
Small groups meet in most Churches. You need to find your sisters in Christ who stand with you during the times of hardship. They will come to your side and walk with you through it. Please find such a group ❤️
Try to reach out to your local churches and check if they have small groups that you can join. I believe they are more than happy to welcome you. My hisband and i have a small bible study group and we virtually meet every other Friday to draw strength from one another and study the bible and live the bible. We need to be in fellowship especially at this pandemic times.

“The deeper the pain the fewer words you use” “Show up and shut up” I have to implement this with my son who has been struggling with mental illness since he was little boy and is still is struggling as a 23-year-old man! This past week has been a difficult one! Please 🙏 for us!

I just want to say, if this might help. I've had depression all my life, and what helped me is seeing a naturopath, who advised me to change my nutrition because so many chemicals are in the food we eat that it affects our overall health, especially our hormones. We overlook that factor but it's not all mental, it's mostly physical and nutrition. Praying for everyone who is battling with this illness.
Youre so right..
Good nutrition heals so many things
It’s so much to do with diet and exercise. Study after study shows how exercise is more effective that benzodiazepines.
People have gone on diets that require eating food just as God made it and they’ve cured their cancer! Diet is HUGE, and instead pills are pushed on us and they don’t actually cure us.
Mediterranean diet. Exercise. Sunlight. Sleep. And stay calm and trust in the LORD JESUS CHRIST.
@@prh. I'm not an expert but if anyone has been feeling extremely sad and afraid due to trauma, it is best to seek help from a reputable naturopath that can help in dealing with trauma, stress and anxieties. These are alternative methods that worked for me, also prayer and meditation. I know I sound like a weird hippie but I can tell a million stories about how fish oil helped my moods and anxieties. Hormones play a big role in our behavior, emotion and response, so people should look into these alternatives.
Does this make sense?
Judas was tormented by demons before he hung himself.
Children are tormented by bullies before they take their precious lives...
Soldiers are tormented by painful memories before they can't handle anymore....
Pray these aweful spirits away! Rebuke these evil snakes!
They are spirits. You are so right! ✝️❤️
Depression and Suicidal Ideation are not spirits but mental disorders. It's an infliction of the mind.
@@MissMuttonmeat it's mental, and spiritual.
@@MissMuttonmeat I agree with you the mind brakes down. I know because mine does and the best people pray for me, cast out and anoint me. The pain goes away but it comes back to haunt me. I have fasted for 40 days many times, and it doesn’t go away. It’s an illness like cancer. But i have hope Jesus will make this go away forever. I will never lose hope. I have three little kids that i love and they are my reason and my family too. They are my reason. And my mom in Heaven i don’t want to let her down.
I wouldn’t understand myself if I didn’t experience clinical depression 20 years ago , I received treatment in psychiatry clinic and recovered I believe Jesus healed me and that He knew my mind was ill and He approved treatment . It’s very hard to understand it’s truly illness chemical imbalance in brain like when person has an accident and loose memory that is also brain affected so this is how depression can happen it can be spiritual attack like Judas had but can be illness that need treatment but I wouldn’t understand this myself if it didn’t happen to me .
I love the phrase “show up and shut up”. So many people worry that they don’t know what to say or do when someone experiences a tragedy. That phrase confirms that you can just be present with someone, and that’s enough.
May Almighty God bless you I don't know you in person but God knows you. God showed to me a revelation when I was on your profile to see things around you,I saw blessings but spiritual attacks holding on to them,in prayers,i saw a woman in the realm of the spirit monitoring and plotting delay in your life, with an evil mirror, and a motive to destroy. But as I speak to you now her time is up, Render hand of favour with Anything you can afford to these motherless foundation (DIVINE MERCY ORPHANAGE HOME FOUNDATION) in Edo State Nigeria, before 2DAYS with faith, as I Rise my hands towards heaven and pray for you they shall serve as point of contact where ever you are, you will receive double portion of grace to excel and total restoration of breakthrough in your life and in the life of your family. Contact or WhatsApp the MD in charge of the orphanage to get their details +2348130426858 or email: divinemercyorphanagehome602@gmail.com tell him I sent you. For it is not by might nor by power but of the spirit saith the lord (zechariah 4:6). You shall testify to the Glory of God.,,.
Amen!!! Sometimes a person presence is enough. It is no need to speak any words.
@@pastorrickwarren9874 I have been to your profile and there is nothing that would indicate that you are really Pastor Rick Warren. Pretending to be someone else would be deceit and that would be sin. I also think I saw a similar, maybe even the same, message as reply to another person. Jesus said it's a fearful thing to fall in the hands of the living God. Repent before it's too late.
“You’re gonna go through pain in life just don’t waste it” ... “you might as well use it to help someone else out” 🙏🏽✨
I lost a brother to suicide in 2013. His statement: show up and shut up was spot on. I had one person who did just that. There are no words necessary because no words can ease that deep pain.
My husband committed suicide in March of 2019. I literally felt like someone cut my heart open and he walked out! I don’t no where he is now but l do know that God never allow something in our life without a purpose he is still the Lord of my life even though I’m still in pain l can make it because of the finished work on the cross. Keep the faith Saints.

This touched me so deeply.

I know my Savior Jesus is always with me I'll never deny that but I just can't wait to get out of this wilderness. I pray for the healing of everyone who's ever lossed a loved one to suicide my heart is with you!
I’m sorry for your loss. My best friend too took his life on August 7th 2018 and my life turned upside down. I know your feeling to my very core. I pray for you and your healing.
The devil will always want us to believe we cannot be healed. I do not know what he went thru i can only emphasize with him. But know the devil is always at work, he will not rest until he takes us all to burn in hell with him.
When I lost my mom to cancer, after already losing my dad of a sudden death, those who just hugged me and cried with me gave me the most comfort. The most heartbreaking thing was well meaning people,and yet clueless, who would tell me “at least she’s in a better place and not suffering”.

Life is a torture test and we prove our love for God by enduring torture. He hands us over to demons to be tested and tortured just like Job, Jesus, and John. We get a better reward if endure the torture with a smile.
Yeah life is a test n the main test of this world life is WHO IS THE REAL GOD/CREATOR
I know how your son felt. I deal with depression on a daily basis. I try hard to inform others that mental illness and being clinically depressed can not be corrected by thinking better or even doing good things. It can help one catch a break but not for long. Some of us are still hanging on with hope. Suicide is a sign that the pain is unbearable. I have been in the hospital three times due to suicide. My pain is the witness of how I can help others push through. I always feel available to share my story because many people just need to feel relatable. This is very important.
I totally agree. The deeper the pain, the fewer the words.
Don't let your pain overtake you.
Plead The Blood Of Jesus Over Yourself !
Tell the Devil to Shut Up & Go in Jesus Holy Name.
I was Delivered From Being Suicidal 4 years ago, I've been Free From those thoughts since. Glory To The Most High God

Dear Pastor Rick,
2:30am here in Tsv Australia I am listening to your testimony repeatedly. What you have just shared really lifted my heart, *The deeper the pain the fewer words we use*. I lost my 16 year old son through suicide. I found him myself. I prayed this way, Lord please have mercy upon me. Anyway long story short, he stayed another 3 more days in ICU and passed on. I pleaded to our Father in Heaven, nothing happened. My last words were, Lord I asked but You did not give me my son back - But I will still follow and serve You. It was that very moment my life shifted. I truly believe and know there is nothing that takes God by surprise. He is God and He change NOT. He is still sitted on His Throne AMEN 🙏. I pray God's Divine Healing, Favour and Excellence upon your Ministry and it is in Jesus Name I pray AMEN 🙏🙏🙏
Amen. God bless both your souls in Jesus name. I'm sorry for your loss! May your pain be used for God's Glory!
I am so sorry,I have whispered a prayer for you,even broken trees still bear fruits

Hello MARIA 😊
When I read that his son committed suicide I cried. I asked myself how do a parent get over this? I had a discussion with my son who just turned 18 years old and daughter who was 10 years old and told them whatever happens to you remember that I'm here for you no matter how hard you feel your life is. I love you unconditionally ❤. Yes we all go thru hardship but GOD IS MERCIFUL AND HIS GRACE IS AMAZING. 🙏

Suicide is almost always caused by very deep pain, by feeling like a burden. Mostly it is caused by feeling hopeless. When hope is gone, suicide seems like the best solution. Who in your life is suffering in silence? If you start observing there are always signs
This thug collaborated with Jerry Falwell Sr. to charge all Liberty Students $7 for that book called Purposes Driven Life. I did not know where my next meal will come from leave alone waste $7 on a book I did not need. That was my lowest point in life to be exploited by the so called pastors. Chickens have come home to roost.
@@nomatusi7514 you're a very sick individual and need help
No , suicide is caused by demonic possession

No Matsui has the right to feel and express his experience. He isn't sick. Judge not. What we do to others God, the just just GOD will return to us with interest.
Suicide cannot take place UNLESS God lets one go.
God has to allow it. It is up to God, so trying to post here what suicide is is fruitless.
Suicide is self-murder that only can happen IF GOD lets it happen.
None of us know a thing about it. Only GOD knows.
We lost our son to suicide 2/9/18.....worst day of our lives. Bless you.
So heartbreaking..this is why DELIVERANCE MINISTRY needs to be revived in the church! Jesus has given us power over the enemy.
I totally agree. I’m wondering why he doesn’t mention that. Torment of the mind is not from God. It’s totally demonic. The Bible says “I have not given you a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” They needed a deliverance to happen in this situation. So sad.😢
Absolutely. People are scared to entertain the thought that when Jesus commanded us to cast out demons, that he meant literally that.
Thank you. Seriously this is what thr church needs.
True
As christian god has given us authority to bind this evil spirit of suicide and we must rebuke them in the name of jesus god has promised us to give us victory over satan and demons we will trample on serpents and scorpions and nothing will harm us jesus on the cross has accomplished for us the church of god
Idk how this was recommended to me !!
But it’s so crazy bc my brother took his life also. It’s very hard and unimaginable.
Thank you pastor. Thank you lord! 🙏 RIP GILBERTO JR

I had no idea! He was a wonderful preacher.
You guys are to be so excited your in so much pain because where there's a lot of pain there's a lot of reason for God manifest in your life, Read your bibles about what Jesus already did for you what he has said about you and believe in your hearts that Pain is only there to gain revelation of wisdom of healing that you would have never had if it wasn't for the pain and it grows your testimony of reasons to believe the next time someone asks, why do you believe what you believe...
As a believer who struggles with all these things..this was so powerful
Please do not give up.. I don't know what you are going through but I am here to tell you that you're not alone, you are important, you are loved and you are special to God. The enemy lies and says that you are worthless because the world doesn't know God.
Homeless? I was homeless for 2 years living on streets.
Sick? I was sick for a very long time in hospitals as a kid...
Depressed and suicidal? I survived multiple suicidal attempts
God has kept me alive so I can tell you that he is faithful, he is real and he loves you so much
God is keeping you alive for a reason. God can change things and He is faithful.
Thank you ❤
When my daughter was about 16 she says to me, "if life is this hard, why do I want another 70 years of it?" 😐 What do you say to that..? I told her you haven't even been through the good times yet. Having your own place, go on vacations, been in love, a parent. She's 21 now and in a very "good place" she's happy. I tell her how proud and impressed I am that she got herself through a very tough time. She's proud of herself and optimistic and has a desire to succeed in all facets of her life 🙏
The thing is that a good life isn’t guaranteed for anyone, and to be quite honest, sometimes i ask that very same question myself.

When you accept the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and savior, he gives you a spiritual life and spiritual strengh to go through every situations. The Holy spirit will make you a victor, his living word will give you faith and hope for the future and you will not be desapointed ! I tell you the power of God is connected to his presence.
All we have to do is to know him better and act on his word by faith
It doesn't matter what is happening around you always keep your eyes upon Jesus and what He Promised and don't be afraid no matter how tall the problems are in your life.
No matter how strong the storms are in your life don't be afraid they will not crush you Jesus is Standing beside you holding you by your right hand and is telling you to stay calm and do not look around and do not be afraid, Jesus did not gave you spirit of fear, but Power, Love and Sound Mind.
Even if you don't understand what is happened in your life or why life is getting so hard and stressful, Trust God and His Son Jesus and Surrender all of yourself to Holy Spirit Who is working in your life and in your broken heart 💔
Holy Spirit is working in your life and in your family 👪even when you don't see it.
When you don't see the way from all the storms that are getting bigger and bigger in your life by surrounding you without letting to see Jesus, always remember even when you don't see Jesus Standing beside you because of the storms that are getting taller and bigger in your life, always remember Jesus is always been there and always will be there by your side, holding you by your right hand 😊❤💙
Our condolences Pastor Rick. I can truly relate to your feelings. We also lost our son two and a half years ago in 2018. Also by suicide! The worst part is that he was in America and we live in South Africa. He came to visit us in Cape Town early August 2018. He was a beautiful young man 41yrs old. The day he left the airport in Cape Town to go back to the US, he, my wife and I were still talking about making plans to join him and his wife in the US. Little did we know that he would take his own life in September. We are still shattered to this day. We have never had any closure as he was cremated in the US. We also lost our daughter on July 4th 2015. She died from natural causes but both our children suffered depression. My wife and I still wonder and blame ourselves for their conditions. Presently we are so depressed ourselves and suicide is sitting very high up on my agenda. We are pensioners and struggling to make ends meet. Life just does'nt feel worth it some days. My wife is a devout Christian and optimistic but me I am totally opposite at this stage. I feel like my life is done here on earth. I would much rather be with my children.
Praying for your strength and peace of mind
@Philip,, don't lose hope,It's not over until God says it's over,,hold onto the faith,,,James 1::
Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters,whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.4 Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.
When my daughter committed suicide, she left a note. She wanted to be cremated end I have her ashes in a teddy bear, I can hold her still.
I also kept some of her clothes, I can still smell her. She is never far from me.
She apologised to God, for that I think she had enormous courage. Rip Matthew and Alison.
This was the best explanation I've ever heard about pain and suffering and pastor Rick gave the best answer a dad could give in a situation like this. Ultimately our children make their own choices.

I've been depressed for a couple of months now. I've been depressed because I'm not sure if I'm truly born again. I believe in Jesus. I pray every day. But I have not been changed. I want to live for Him, but I just... cannot. I read the Bible and just cry, because I can't do it. I can't do it, I can't feel His love and I can't love Him back. I've been suicidal too. I just want to find God 😞
Dont stop praying, dont stop spending time with God, reading, singing, doing good deeds for people who need help. Its just a season, it will pass. The enemy will do anything to knock you off your path. Stay strong 💕
Praying for you We love you and Christ loves you
You only need to understand how much God loves you instead of how much you love God. Praying for you 🙏
My heart goes out to Pastor Warren and all families affected by suicide. My 29 year old sister took her own life almost 30 years ago, after a life long battle with bipolar disorder. In that moment, I lost the best friend I will ever have. The shock and pain have lessened over the years, but I still feel so sad that she missed out on all the joy life has to offer. Watching her 2 children grow and achieve advanced degrees. The permanence of suicide is what is so hard to accept.
You're totally right ...

I have had deep depression, wanting to take my life. After I switched to a Paleo diet, I began to feel better. Later, through functional medicine, I discovered that I have a variant on my MTHFR gene and can not detoxify mold. Despite being on a Paleo diet, I began to feel mentally horrible after moving my classroom into a temporary, moldy school building. Slowly, I started losing my mind and knew something more was going on because suddenly, I took a turn for the worse.
If you are struggling with depression, consider food sensitivities and/or toxins that your body isn’t equipped to get rid of. The brain is very sensitive to heavy metals, mold, Lyme disease and other biotoxins! But, it is reversible! I’m proof.

Hello Brenda 😊
Thanks for your sweet response, God has really been wonderful to us all, may his name be parise, you seem to be a God fearing person right 😃, that's amazing...by the way nice meeting you on here, I hope you are having a wonderful time out there right 😃, have a blessed day out there 🙏..
My wonderful took his life June 28/22. His life was torture due to depression. He had 2 different types, and was never happy. I’m trying to move on with Jesus.
This was me. Literally. I suffered tremendously with major depressive disorder and panic disorder during most of my younger years all the way through my 20’s. Mental illness runs on both sides of my family. I was raised in the church however I was taught and firmly believe it is ALWAYS God’s will to heal. It’s up to us to receive it by faith. Unbelief will choke out your faith. You can have both faith and unbelief at the same time. You have to get rid of all unbelief. I tried many, many medications, was in and out of the mental hospital several times in my 20’s and was mentally tortured beyond belief. There were times I wanted out of my misery but always believed God had a good life and great future for me and I KNEW healing was his will. That’s what I held onto, even in my darkest, darkest days and hours. Eventually, the lord led me to people that helped heal my mind from the root cause of mineral and vitamin deficiency. I talked to a person who had a brother with the worst case of schizophrenia doctors had ever seen, who has now been medication free for over 50 years and has several children and grandchildren. I was skeptical until I got on a natural food-derived vitamin regimen that literally healed every part of my mind. Medication does nothing but cover up the symptoms, it does absolutely nothing to heal the root cause. Today I am 37 years old, married with 2 little children and am currently pregnant with my 3rd. I’ve been medication free since 2012 and I praise GOD for my healing!!! If you suffer from mental illness connect with me, I can help. God bless you all!
I’m going through it man please pray for me
@@sebastianmireles6691Nath I pray for you for a sound mind in the name of Jesus. Keep confessing 2 Tim 1:7.

I know this was 2 years ago, but I want to say your story is truly inspiring. Way to fight. Keep shining your light.
Am so thankful to have found this testimony! My daughter took her life 6 months ago. She struggled with depression and anxiety since her teenage years. It's a pain like no other and I never thought in a million years, that this would be my life.
Yes.. i agree Rick. God spoke to me vocally “i have a purpose for your pain.”...God knows how deep my pain is...I’ve longed to be free of this pain but I’m becoming grateful for it. Ive struggled with metal health..terrible things happened to me before i was 2 then after i was adopted. I want to embrace my pain..please pray for me so i can partner with God in my pain and use it to bring souls to His heart forever.
My mom prayed her whole life for me and she has passed. I am still considered disabled due to a mental illness. They say I have schizophrenia. I have also been told they think I have PTSD. I have much anxiety and have depression too. I remember trying to read the Bible aloud thinking maybe it would somehow get rid of the voices but the voices just mocked me and it. People may tell you to pray it away but I think that is like trying to pray diabetes away or cancer away. I am not saying prayer won't help or that some won't heal. It's just that I can't pray my mental issues away. I thought long ago when I said that prayer of inviting Jesus into your heart that it would somehow miraculously fix me. It still hasn't. Sometimes I think people like me are broken because we do live in a broken world as he said.
It hurts so much to live with mental illness and be in constant pain. I am so exhausted to live and keep the struggle up. There is nothing to do but keep managing the problem like he said.
Don't give up on yourself. Valium, meditation, and a stern mental hold. The most important is the stubborn determination of the mind. Reject it. Notice your 'triggers' and everytime you hear them say NO. Slowly slowly it can fade away.
Your not broken. Healing is the children's bread. Trust, believe, walk by faith. Speak his word over you circumstances regularly! And watch God begin to shift your situation. Jesus is Lord and he is not limited, for ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE FOR THOSE WHO BELIEVE! The devil is a liar! SPEAK YOUR HEALING WITH HIS WORD! And watch God Act!
Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them. - Mark 11:23
I know exactly how you feel cause I’ve been there but I promise you it’s possible to healed. I could relate especially to the bit where you mentioned the voices would mock you and the Bible. God had to teach me to step in authority as a believer. We have powers over all powers of the enemy and serpents and scorpions and NOTHING shall harms us. Those voices are controlled my powers and spirits and as a child of God they are under you. You have authority over them. Please don’t give up and pray to God to lead you in the right prayers to combat these spirits trying to torment your mind or make you doubt Gods healing power.
Like I said, I’ve been there and there are still times when the enemy tries it but I partner with God and rebuke it in the name of Jesus. Pray to God for the strength(cause we can’t do it by ourselves) and wisdom to combat it.
Scriptures that helped me are 2corinthians10:3-5(hold the thoughts and voices captive and command them to submit to Jesus Christ) 2corinthians5:17(you are a NEW creation in Christ Jesus so ALL things are new. Not some things but all things) Luke10:18(As a child of God you have authority over ALL powers of the enemy. God has given you that authority so those voices have to flee) 2timothy1:7(God has given you the spirit of a sound mind... a BALANCED mind. You need to reject the notion that God is okay with you not having a sound mind and come to the agreement by FAITH that you have the spirit of sound mind and begin to decree and declare it over your life) Ephesians 1:22(God has put ALL things under the authority of Jesus which includes depression, intrusive thoughts, the voices. They are ALL under His authority so keep crying out to God)
If you’ve tried all these things, please don’t give up. Keep walking in faith and trusting in God. By the stripes of Jesus you are healed and you have been delivered. The enemy gets us to doubt and question Gods word. He wants to make God look like a liar in our lives so we can lose our faith. That’s all satan wants. For us to stop believing in Jesus. I’ve prayed for you and I’ll continue praying cause I’ve been there and I know how hard it is but I know that God is a healer and restorer. I stand in faith with you and decree and declare in Jesus Name that those voices will no longer have access to your mind
Explorer...everyone here has said it all! Pray and never ever give up. That's what the enemy wants. Determine you're never going to give him that joy . We'll be praying with you
Thanks for sharing your testimony, it certainly helped me to live with my husband suicide. The words "don't waste your pain" struck me deeply.
@Cynthia James, look up Ascension Presents video "Mercy After Suicide" by Father Chris Alar. It will heal you.
Thank you for this. My husband has major depressive disorder and anxiety. He has tried once already to commit suicide and I am concerned on a daily basis that I’ll find him dead. I try not to worry but I know he is daily in pain mentally and is tired of the fight. We are Christians. All I can do is pray for God’s strength and healing daily.

My father died from a fentanyl overdose last year on August 14th 2022. I read a comment here that said the greater the pain the fewer the words, and I have not been able to discuss my fathers death with anyone for almost an entire year, not even my brother. He was everything to me, there’s no way to explain the amount of love I had for my dad to anyone, so how can I ever begin to explain to anyone the amount of sadness I carry…
I lost my wife 7 years ago and she was only 27. I have not been the same since. I don't laugh like i used to and smile like I used to. I have 2 kids with her. I still don't know what to feel about her sudden passing
I am so sorry for you loss. I am praying for you. Give the pain to Jesus and He will comfort and heal you by the power of His Holy Spirit. GOD is close to the broken hearted and he is the mender of broken hearts.
Jehova Rapha heal the heart of this man and let your peace and love guard his heart and mind. In Jesus Mighty Name.

Stay strong.
So,so sorry for your loss. I pray Jesus will give you His comfort and peace which passes all understanding!

I’m so so sorry I can’t say I understand your pain.. I pray that God helps u everyday to keep in step with Him.
