I wanted to end my life, but somehow [Holy Spirit], I reached out to a friend who took me to hospital. I had three visits [hospital] in four months – I actually thought I was in hell. I imagine I was going through some sort of metamorphosis [mental, physical & spiritual]. I had been seeing a therapist [1994] on a regular basis, up until this point in time. I actually thought I would be locked away – but the hospital staff was very supportive [I had no control over my process]. I was released from hospital 16th September 1994, but my fear, pain & shame had only subsided a little. I remember this particular morning waking up [home] & my process would start up again [fear, pain, & shame]. No one could help me, not even my therapist [I was terrified]. I asked Jesus Christ to have mercy on me & forgive me my sins. Slowly, all my fear has dissipated & I believe Jesus delivered me from my “psychological prison.” I am a practicing Catholic & the Holy Spirit is my friend & strength; every day since then has been a joy & blessing. I deserve to go to hell for the life I have led, but Jesus through His sacrifice on the cross, delivered me from my inequities. John 3: 8, John 15: 26, are verses I can relate to, organically. He’s a real person who is with me all the time. I have so much joy & peace in my life, today, after a childhood spent in orphanages [England & Australia]. God LOVES me so much. Fear, pain, & shame, are no longer my constant companions. I just wanted to share my experience with you [Luke 8: 16 – 17].

Thanks for your challenge to us, we could all use a reminder to be a little less selfish and a little more generous! You're right, even a small sacrafice on our part will make a great difference in other's lives. That is good for me to remember :) Vanessa Keri, it’s great to hear about your awareness and concern for other people’s needs!

I am 14 years old, and I am already interested in joining 30 hour famine. Me and my youth grup is going to do the Challenge on May.18,2007! I have an eating disorder, but I am still willing to do this challenge for the children, even though it could kill me, I am going to do it for them! If you think a mineut, most people eat 3 meals a day, and children in far away places dont even have money or the food to eat 1 meal a day let alone a piece of food! I think it is very sad. Thats why I am working on raiseing alot of money to feed alot of starving children. Right now, every 3 seconds a poor child dies of hunger, and we are sitting here full from supper! Oh my. Just 1 dollar feeds a child for a day, so instead of buying a bag of chips or a coffie at Tim Hortins, give it to 30 hour famine to save the life of a child. God bless you all, Keri Hey,
