When darkness closes in

2014-08-06 07.11.27

There are times where life seems so very dark. When possibilities disappear, and loneliness overwhelms. The dawn seems never to come again.

Suicidal thoughts.

These illnesses take over and produce tragic results.


They suck away hope.
They breed violence and war.
They cause mistrust and over-reaction of law enforcement to unarmed teens.
They produce enmity between groups of people, either nations, neighborhoods, or classes of people.
They result in greed, thievery, and abuse of funds.

And good people die.

More than our circumstances, there is a way through. It may not be “the same as before.” In fact, it is likely that things are now radically different.

Please hear me… God knows. God hears. You are NOT alone.

Jeremiah 29:11-13

Reach out for help.

If you are struggling with addiction or suicidal thoughts, please get help. Don’t let the death of Robin Williams, or thousands of unnamed individuals’ deaths be forgotten.

If you or a family member are survivors of violence or abuse, please get help. Don’t let the death of Michael Brown, and thousands of others be for nothing. What has happened to you is appalling. But you are worth the time and energy to get support and find healing.
