I think about that sometimes....how would he had lived had I died and he was spared. Would he had been able to just live without all the "stuff" and grow up normal.

I know Jesus cares....and I know He is patient and merciful since I am still here, cuz he could have given up on me a loooonnnggg time ago.

Just difficult to develop a "relationship" with Him. Not as an excuse (cuz I am not one of "them") but I grew up in a very strict pentecostal atmosphere, and I was never taught how to have relationships (with any authority figure)...just to obey the rules. So its hard to view Jesus as a friend, because he is the ultimate authority, ya know? And since I know He knows all that is within me it makes it even more difficult to think we can have a real relationship. Does that make sense? Would you try hard to befriend someone that really didnt like you? (just an analogy...I like Jesus )

We'll see.
