    I was an atheist all my life ...til last January on the morning of my final suicide attempt.
    I was a Marilyn Manson-style Drag-Queen, (NYX Lipsticks were my favorite, especially in black) Who suffered from public harassment, verbal abuse, humiliation, i was mocked...all by the general public.
    I grew up in a judgemental legalistic abusive household.
    And i was on every anti-Depressant in the book.
    I suffered from Severe Chronic Manic depression, PTSD, Hallucinations Severe anxiety and had developmental issues in my brain.
    I ran out of my bedroom crying and screaming “I CANNOT live my life like this anymore, I’m gonna become a Christian” -this was the The moment when everything began to change.
    A couple months later on a warm Friday morning, I decided to make a BOLD decision to go to a church to get HELP, two dudes who {ACTUALLY Genuinely} cared about me began to pray for me....and I felt the depression, mental issues diminishing....
    Then two days later, it was Easter Morning...I drove to the Church, NOT KNOWING what to expect....as the first Christian song “Resurrecting” by Elevation worship began to play ....
    I could feel the LOVE OF GOD -ROARING THROUGH MY HEART
    I began to Scream, 😭😭wail 😭😭😭😭and CRY 😭😭😭louder than all the insanely loud worship music,
    (it felt like a rock concert, where all I could feel was LOVE,😭😭😭
    I Thought to myself “how can these people actually look at me without mocking me for my appearance” and
    WHAT THE HECK?!??!
    And “How can these people possible look at (ME) with such LOVE AND COMPASSION streaming like a waterfall out of their eyes!!?!??!”
    “Like ....Jesus LOVES me,...and he PREVENTED ALL MY SUICIDE Attempts...BECAUSE HE LOVES ME”
    THAT SAME MORNING, it’s called EASTER...
    My maker , Jesus, MY SAVIOR, WHOM I USED TO HATE,
    ...HEALED MY BRAIN AND MY HEART..
    I’m now off every single one of those antidepressants, and am a {completely} HEALTHY INDIVIDUAL .... 🔥NO MORE Suicide , no more PTSD...
    NO MORE DEPRESSION...
    I discovered that Joy, and Happiness is WHO JESUS IS.
    And that without him,
    I could not be anything but suicidal and disabled..
    Jesus LITERALLY HEALED me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!☀️🔆
    ❤️JESUS. LOVES. US.❤️
    🔥JESUS. HEALS. US🔥

      Dont lose hope, God is with you even when you feel as if you dont deserve Him or as if He isnt there. He will guide you through these struggles. Look to Him and put away the things in this world that drag your mind down. We are told when we seek Him with all our heart we will find Him. Listen for Him in the words of a friend, or in the lyrics of a song. Open your bible or download a bible app, and search for Him in His word.He is with you and He loves you despite what you may have done in this life.
      Cast thy burden upon the Lord , and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.
      Psalms 55:22 KJV

    My Grandparents watched this on Thanksgiving, and my Granddad says "that girl can SING!" Who would've thought Lacey could bridge that gap between the music of my Granddad's day to mine?! So glad she did :) It is awesome to see her using the talents God has blessed her with to touch ALL generations, not just the youth. I think her story in particular touched him because we lost my Uncle to suicide a little over ten years ago. It was his only son. But losing any loved one that way is pain that I can't put into words. And then if it's your child on top of that, it's just a wound that will never fully heal. I'm thankful to Billy Graham for making this possible. It's a message that definitely means so much to me and my family. It's all about the cross

He was going to do dialysis, but when they did the first treatment in the hospital it caused his heart to fail. Now he is been released to come home with the help of hospice to spend his last days. Never dreamed it would be this hard. Thankful I know my Granddad believes in Jesus Christ. Jesus come take your faithful servant home

    On a hill called Calvary
    Stands an endless mercy tree
    Every broken weary soul
    Find your rest and be made whole
    Stripes of blood that stain its frame
    Shed to wash away our shame
    From the scars pure love released
    Salvation by the mercy tree
    In the spot between two thieves
    Hung the blameless Prince of Peace
    Beaten, battered, scarred, and scorned
    Sacred head pierced by our thorns
    It is finished was his cry
    The perfect lamb was crucified
    His sacrifice, our victory
    Our Savior chose the mercy tree
    Hope went dark that violent day
    The whole earth quaked at love's display
    Three days silent in the ground
    This body born for heaven's crown
    On that bright and glorious day
    When heaven opened up the grave
    He's alive and risen indeed!
    Praise him for the mercy tree!
    Death has died, love has won
    Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
    Jesus Christ has overcome
    He has risen from the dead
    One day soon, we'll see his face
    And every tear, he'll wipe away
    No more pain or suffering
    Praise him for the mercy tree
    Death has died, love has won
    Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
    Jesus Christ has overcome
    He has risen from the dead
    Death has died, love has won
    Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
    Jesus Christ has overcome
    He has risen from the dead
    On a hill called Calvary
    Stands an endless mercy tree

      It’s been 4, almost 5 years since my divorce. I’ve grown from it. And I’m now content.
      But I’m struggling with a bigger battle.
      My daughter’s father doesn’t believe in God and wants to withdraw her from her private Baptist school and put her in a public school. Our court date is 12/10/21.
      Please, pray for us. I want my daughter to remain attending the private Baptist school. ❤️😢

    "One day soon we we'll see his face and every tear he'll wipe away. No more pain and suffering. Oh praise his name for the mercy tree."
    To me religion is a set of rules with too many do not do this or that. and possible lies written to suit what man wants to hear. Being a Christian to me is to being in a relationship with him, learning to be like him, to love as he did, to help someone come to know him as well for all eternity. .
    That is why it is so important to find a church that teaches from the living word of God. A place we can grow, be encouraged and become who the lord wants us to be. Instead of focusing on what we were , our shortcomings, dwelling on what happened in the past our future is in his hands. Every day is new...
    If I did not have my faith, my personal relationship with him I dont know where I would be.

      The law is important it reveals the rebellious sinful nature of man God gave the law to show us we needed him.
      Thank God we do not need to keep the law to be saved..only faith in Jesus Christ can save a sinner from hell ...after all if anyone could keep the whole law Christ would have died in vane.
      We are saved by the grace of God when we by faith humble our heart to him and accept the gift of eternal life through Jesus :)
      I am eternally a child of God.
      Rules are a good thing
      God gave us clear commands that we are to keep in order to have orderly and Christ like lives .
      Jesus was tempted at all points
      as we are but he obeyed the Father until death.
      Jesus is my ensample.
      There is nothing greater than trusting and obeying him ❤
      what a friend we have in Jesus.

Eu ando cansada da igreja, pela sua falsa doutrina, por simplesmente viver em aparências, como você mesmo disse, se não fosse o meu relacionamento com Deus e a convicção que tenho em Deus, seria facilmente enganada pelo falso evangelho. É difícil encontrar uma igreja que tenha essa responsabilidade de ensinar o que Cristo ensinou.

      religion is like that, you're right, IF you're pagan....druids, aztecs kkk, communists, mormons, etc--even some "christians" . renew your faith in christ - GOD calls us, the prodigal son-- the son sinned, lost his inheritance, he STOPPED PRACTICING HIS FAITH - TRUE RELIGIOUS PRACTICE, but he came to his senses, went to confession - a sacrament - with his father. LOVE has rules. yes? even kids know that. Jesus heals, gives mercy, but then REQUESTS repentance and the practice of our faith. Jesus gave the keys of the church to...PETER, the first pope - mercy, love and faith.

    This is one of the few songs that brings me to tears every time I hear it. Jesus was faultless and did not deserve to be crucified between two criminals. In the form of a man, He had every right to choose to disobey The Father; however because of His love for us, He chose to be crucified so that we can have a relationship with Him. It was our sin that nailed Jesus to the cross, and it is our sin that His blood covers. He did not die to cover our sin so that we can continue to live in it, but to free us from it. I need to remember Jesus' sacrifice for me and to honor that sacrifice by living for Him.

But never take this word for granted to commit sin anytime you want for God knows a pure heart. be humble and truthful, follow Christ for He is the only person who came to die for the sinner and save them from eternal sin. This is salvation. This is the greatest news.

    A beautiful song, beautifully sung. I do not perceive her as doing this to bring glory to herself, rather her whole effort is to bring glory to God and praise to our Lord Jesus Christ. As a man of Scottish ancestry, I would love to hear maybe two or three bagpipers playing the Great Highland Bagpipes as part of the accompanyment to Mrs. Sturm's singing...the whole song has a strong celtic feel to it...the GHB's would enhance that tremendously - just as they lend a powerful voice to Amazing Grace. .

    Mercy Tree by Lacey Sturm
    Lyrics
    On a hill called Calvary
    Stands an endless mercy tree
    Every broken weary soul
    Find your rest and be made whole
    Stripes of blood that stain its frame
    Shed to wash away our shame
    From the scars pure love released
    Salvation by the mercy tree
    Verse 2
    In the spot between two thieves
    Hung the blameless Prince of Peace
    Beaten, battered, scarred, and scorned
    Sacred head pierced by our thorns
    It is finished was his cry
    The perfect lamb was crucified
    His sacrifice, our victory
    Our Savior chose the mercy tree
    Verse 3
    Hope went dark that violent day
    The whole earth quaked at love's display
    Three days silent in the ground
    This body born for heaven's crown
    On that bright and glorious day
    When heaven opened up the grave
    He's alive and risen indeed!
    Praise him for the mercy tree!
    Chorus
    Death has died, love has won
    Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
    Jesus Christ has overcome
    He has risen from the dead
    Verse 4
    One day soon, we'll see his face
    And every tear, he'll wipe away
    No more pain or suffering
    Praise him for the mercy tree
    (Chorus 2x)
    On a hill called Calvary
    Stands an endless mercy tree

Let's not insult him anymore by trying to do everything right and then condemning ourselves when we can't and then running away in shame.
