Pray For Death

 I've done it before; I'll probably do it again eventually. I've prayed for death, for this life to be over. I see no purpose in it anymore. Life is crawling to a standstill as it were. I am slowly falling my way out of tune with it all. I don't know what to do anymore. Just wait for the end to come. I doubt it will come quickly enough for me. No, there must be another way out of this life. Prayer doesn't seem to be helping me much. I wish I could speed up time to the point of death. That might be a good thing for me. There's nothing wrong with my thinking is there? No I don't think there is. I think this thinking is normal for a person under stress. To simply be free from it all would be amazing. I wish I could make it happen, but I can't. Not by myself. There has to be a different way to come about this. It is inevitable, isn't it? Death that is. It will eventually capture us all in its grasp. Why not allow it to happen sooner rather than later.

I just want this life to come to an end. I want to be at peace. Not being able to sleep good at night is troublesome. I wake up in the middle of the night and then again long before I am to wake up. I manage to fall back asleep at times, but not always. This morning, I woke up around 2:30ish and then was able to fall back asleep only to wake up a little later. I now have to deal with dragging through my day in order to hopefully get through this. I don't understand it all. Maybe I won't ever understand any of it. It is what it is.

It's not an easy thing to talk about at all. Here's what it is: Suicidal ideation ( suicidal thoughts )  are thoughts or ideas centered around death or suicide . Experiencing suicidal ideation doesn’t mean you’re going to kill yourself, but it can be a warning sign.

An Opposition In All Things

Long has been the story told about how there must be an opposition in all things. From the pre-existence there was Satan, Lucifer the Son of the Morning. In the beginning we were with God in his presence. We learned all we could while there. Until the moment we couldn’t progress any more, we were unable to become like God. So, we were given the opportunity to come to Earth to gain a body. A Savior would be provided to atone for our sins enabling us to come back to the presence of God. The idea that an opposition must be in all things comes from 2nd Nephi: For it must needs be, that there is an opposition in all things. If not so, my firstborn in the wilderness, righteousness could not be brought to pass, neither wickedness, neither holiness nor misery, neither good nor bad. Wherefore, all things must needs be a compound in one; wherefore, if it should be one body it must needs remain as dead, having no life neither death, nor corruption nor incorruption, happiness nor misery, neither...

Temptation Bible vs Book of Mormon

In the Bible in 1 Corinthians 10:13 we find: 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. But what might seem as a contradiction is found in Alma 13:28 But that ye would humble yourselves before the Lord, and call on his holy name, and watch and pray continually, that ye may not be tempted above that which ye can bear , and thus be led by the Holy Spirit, becoming humble, meek, submissive, patient, full of love and all long-suffering; So, which is it? Either God tempts you to a point and stops, or you have to actively pray not to be tempted beyond that no return point. Which is it?
