Hello all. I want to ask for your prayers for my close friend and her family. She's just attempted suicide last night. Thankfully it wasn't a success and she's still with us, but, if you all could ask our Father to give her peace and open her heart to the truth and joy of the Gospel, I would sincerely appreciate it greatly.
Thanks and blessing to all who do so.

She's "okay" now?
Dude, people do NOT just become "OK" after a suicide attempt.

Oh, my apologies for being unclear. I meant physically, as in she's still with us. Obviously, she's not okay otherwise.

Ah, thanks for clearing that up.
I know of a few cases where people thought "all was OK" and then, well...I don't need to go on do I?

She and her family will be in my prayers and I ask Our Lord to strengthen her faith and that of her family because, you see, it is when we have no faith that nothing seems to be worth living for.
