Welcome!
Would you believe I had to google how to commit suicide? It was talked about a little bit back then,
every now and then. It's not like it is today, which is a good thing. There I was at the age of 17 in a house
full of people, bawling my eyes out, looking up how to kill myself. Everything hurt at that point. It’s a
different kind of pain when waking up in the morning; taking a breath is the most painful thing you could
ever feel. I was dealing with horrible depression and anxiety. I was fighting with friends at school and my
parents at home. No one understood. I couldn’t find one ounce of joy. I often describe depression as a
dark pit that is nearly impossible to get out of. But, instead of finding my answers, I found something a little like this. If you are still reading this, you don’t want to do this. You have a purpose here.
There was a reason you were created. It can be hard to silence all of the voices in your head, but one is begging you not to do this. He has many names: I AM or Yahweh, Jehovah Rapha (which means the
one who heals), just to name a few. You may not think there is anything out there beyond the skies, but I
know that there is an ever-so-small voice in your heart that knows there is. And he is close to the
brokenhearted. Life can get better, maybe not overnight, and it might require a lot of honesty and truth
on your part, but you can find inner peace again. I’m a believer in The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit first.
And the bible says that if you believe in your heart and confess with your tongue that Jesus is the Lord
and that he died on the cross for our sins, you will be saved. Right now, with your arms
outstretched, with all of your brokenness; he will take you into his arms and never let you go. If you
allow him in. Even when we try to separate ourselves. There is nothing that can ever separate you from
the love of God.
Let's Pray!
Heavenly Father,
I thank you that you are the King of Glory. The Lord of hosts. Forgive us Father for believing the lies of the enemy. They will live and not die. Your plans are not to harm us, but to give us a hope and a future. They are not too far gone. There is nothing on this Earth that can stop you from turning it around. There is freedom in Christ Jesus. Every lie that they have believed, every tear that has fallen, every time they wanted to throw in the towel; I pray that they leave it all on the altar of God. NOTHING can separate us from the love of God. Not death nor life. Blessed are the brokenhearted, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. If God calls you blessed, who am I to disagree? I pray God's love, God’s healing power, and God’s grace over your life.
In Jesus Name,
Amen
