Life is a constant journey of twists and bends, ups and downs, ins and outs. We face struggles beyond our comprehension. Christian, don't face this journey alone! God, in His mercy, has provided His Presence, His Counselor, and His Power through His Holy Spirit. Let Him make your burden easy and your yoke light, as Jesus promised, and may you walk with Him daily. He is no magic button or genie-like figure; He is "a very present help in times of trouble."

The twin monsters of suicidal ideation can be dealt with through presence, purpose, perspective, and people.

Many of us find ourselves disappointed when God does not work with great displays of power, and we might wonder if He is even aware of our pain.

While God doesn't promise to shortcut the journey, He does promise to strengthen us IN our journey.
