An old testament prophecy about Jesus:
Isaiah 53:2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is NO beauty that we should desire him.
My point is, despite not being chad God loves his only begotten Son from eternity, and to be a Christian is to be an adopted son of God. God doesn't hate you, he doesn't want you to be suicidal.. he wants a relationship with you, he knows everything about you, he wants you to be with him in paradise.
Catholic king Baldwin IV had a face so hideous he always wore a mask, he had leprosy and went blind and even lost the ability to move the majority of his body. Despite this he led the crusaders into victories when things looked helpless. He trusted in God, and died satisfied. He is regarded as the greatest Christian military leader ever 900+ years later. Do you not think he often didn't understand why God would allow him to have leprosy?
Being a Christian isn't about having a cope nor does it promise an easy life, but it does ensure a grand retirement plan.
Luke 6:21-23
[21]Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh.
[22]Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake.
[23]Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy: for, behold, your reward is great in heaven: for in the like manner did their fathers unto the prophets.
