Commiting suicide is not the way to go...

I had a friend's friend, whom lately was duped by a con-man, who used to be her "close" friend.

Somehow, in some ways, this man managed to assure her to invest some amount of money into a business which he's having in mind. The way it goes? Give a few thousand of cash, the rest? Get 5 credit cards and swap the maximum amount. Using these money, they will start a worthy business.

She gave him a few of her hard-earned thousands, got a few credit cards and swapped them to the maximum amount... only to find him "unreachable" in the next few weeks. She was stunned when she finally realized that the entire business thingy was just a scam!

And her hard-earned money.. and the credit card loans!!! However will she be able to solve the loans???

It drove her nuts and the thoughts of commiting suicide came into her mind. She walked up and down her apartment, contemplating of whether or not she should jump, tat day.

I thank God she's still alive today, but how does she walk the days ahead?

To my friends out there.. remember.. when you talk about money, BIG MONEY, don't trust anyone, even your kins. Only parents, can be trusted. Coz no one else on earth will ever love you like they do.

Poor girl friend you have. Shall we introduce her to Jesus?
She would then seek God first next time before she attends anything.

But you are a shield around me, O-LORD; you bestow glory on me and lift up my head. To the LORD I cry aloud, and he answers me from his holy hill. Psalms3:3-4
