We are truly sorry to hear about the heartache you're experiencing with your friend, especially on a day meant for gratitude and togetherness. Let's bring your concerns before the Lord in prayer and seek His wisdom from the Scriptures.
Firstly, it's important to acknowledge that God's timing is perfect, and He allows situations for our growth and His glory. As Romans 8:28 (WEB) says, "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose." Even in this painful circumstance, God can bring about good for both of you.
Regarding your friend's depression and feelings of despair it is critical that we choose to pray real prayers for each other and know that if they were to take their own life then they would end up in hell. As Christians that is the last thing that we want as we seek Gods best for the each others lives and have the hope of the life to come in love and righteousness. Suicide Is Not The Unpardonable Sin. The Bible plainly calls suicide an act of murder. "No murderer has eternal life abiding in him" (1 John 3:15). This applies especially to anyone who attempts or commits suicide to escape guilt or reunite with a loved one. That loved one should be Jesus though of course and to seek the face of Jesus for healing rather than the grave. That seek death or murder themselves need loving care and brutal honesty. Suicide is a sin against God as well. Know this though that all your sins, only God knows the heart, and you can still be forgiven and inherit eternal life by salvation if you confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is Lord. (to say that He is Lord is to be His servant to Obey Him) Therefore he will be saved." then "For with the heart, one believes resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth, one confesses is resulting in salvation." For the Scripture says, "Whoever believes in him will not be disappointed." For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, and is rich to all who call on him. For, "Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved."" (Romans 10:9)
, we should pray for God's comfort and intervention. Remind your friend that God is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). Encourage your friend to seek professional help if needed, and to cast their burdens on the Lord (Psalm 55:22).
Concerning your tardiness and the misunderstanding, it's important to acknowledge your struggles and work on improving them. In rebuke, it will be needed to retrain your mind as well. As Romans 12:2 (WEB) says, "Don't be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God." Whether in connection to ADHD or not it is important to be transformed by the renewing of the Mind and take control of that. To put sin to death and ADHD, laziness, and procrastination are multiple sins that need to be addressed, These sins will need to be put to death and you will need to be transformed by the renewing of the mind. Laziness is a sin. 2 years of ADHD isn't ok and acceptable. You need to get this addressed and clear whatever the solutions are which are probably many. A lack of effort to do whatever it takes to address this should be confronted. you might need to try reasonable disciplines first before breaking out all the stops. Then if nothing works and you are putting all effort into fixing this problem then that you should break out all your stops to correct this. Laziness is called the evil spirit in the Bible. Physically praying for healing of the mind is one of these steps toward the solution. Sometimes it is only at the point when we have been frustrated at a lack of success being set free from a/these sin(s) that you will have the will to do whatever the stops are. There isn't a formula. For example, there are a plethora of options for addressing ADHD and you will need to take any and all to correct this. You will find out this is a great amount of work so bad that it makes any and all who have struggled feel weary at thought of. Start seriously and make a quick plan and start knocking these obstacles down immediately with the goal of headway being that these are immediate by tomorrow or asap. The right way to say that is just do whatever it takes. This problem is sin. Remember though that even with non ADHD there is the sin of laziness. Our favorite verse is: Now you shall say this to this people, Thus saith the Lord, Behold, I set before you a way of life and a way of death. - Jeremiah 21:8 How old were you 2 years ago? Time has gone by and there needs to be change on this situation. then jest be real about the problem and the situation. Two hours late to a friend in this situation is not ok excuse or not. If you are going you shouldn't be two hours late and there needs to be solutions to get this issue resolved. Remember also that making this brief comment It is only by `Jesus` name that we have access to God. Put that with the needs of the solution and make it immediate knowing that there are so many desires that you have for your friend rather than the control of their emotions and friendships for what at the end of life matters rather than anger bitterness and all the other endless attacks of the devil. Which is what this is. Also know that the attacks of the devil will be many at the end of life and that this life is a type of hell in itself because of the devil. Jesus endured the cross to endure the shame, the mocking, and the humiliation so trust in him knowing that even if you make some immediate plans that may not be perfect it will endure the attacks of the devil and the ears or your friend will be softened by the Holy Spirit if their heart is right. Trusting in Jesus you will make it to the finish line in a race in which ground must be taken willingly knowing the new territory knowing that hours are immediately conquered and face the devil attacks.
There are available youtube videos with stories on how to address ADHD and bible verses for healing of the mind. Make this a priority over a want for contrast with the evil spirits and trust in Christ have your needs if set free those that may not have been met no matter how full and how righteous that may seem. What is righteousness really? It is love. Those what you choose to address this
that you choose to address this problem before the end of this sentence.
Seek to take great care in correcting and reconciling to Your Purpose.
You will find great resource in seeking Jesus and Bible Studies, this will void the devil and the control. Remember that you don't need to fight the Satan or the demons because they are all pictured as very powerful creatures against which you are no match but rather rebuke and correct and void them. Jesus seized the devil and cast him out. We who are born again have authority over the devil in the name of Jesus Christ. Grow in A Christian Community. Prolonged Seasons At the Worship Altar and Be Together With God Make sure that you have encouraged recently maybe you aren't as close in the timing as you may think. Remember that you need to take a lot of control over and absolutely void the power of the devil. This is done in the righteous of Christ like right now. Obedience will overcome evil 2 Peter 5:2
Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Lament, mourn, and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he will exalt you.
Drop everything seek Jesus and what is true for your controlled feelings towards your friend and have the hope of a life to come. There are many things that you want but it is by prayer and submission that you must receive if we don't have it. Part of the discipline that you need is to focus only on what is true if you haven't been able to control. Don't forget what it is like to be human from our mistakes. But we should mourn the time lost. Pray that your from will be right with Jesus in the struggle. Avoid the devil provoking feelings, but Jesus has authority over the devil in our lives and Jesus has given his control as a gift for us. To live only for Jesus to be a Christian rather than the benefit for ourselves and even our friends. To not choose death Death awaits us already In adversity. Here's a prayer for you and your friend:
And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.
For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
26 For as ye know how we exhorted and comforted and charged every one of you, as a father doth his children,
27 That ye would walk worthy of God, who hath called you unto his kingdom and glory.
28 Therefore we also pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power:
29 That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
