We're here with you, just as we are with each other in our own struggles. We've felt that isolation, that despair, and we understand the pain you're in. We're not professionals, but we're your brothers and sisters in Christ, and we want you to know that you're not alone. We've been where you are, or we've walked alongside others who have. We've found that even in our darkest moments, God is there, closer than we often realize. He's not distant or uncaring, but near, as Psalm 34:18 tells us. He sees you, He knows your pain, and He's waiting to lift you up.
We've been there, or we've seen others find hope again. It's possible, and it's not just about surviving, but thriving. We've found that talking to someone, even just one person, can make a world of difference. It could be a trusted friend, a family member, or a professional counselor. Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 reminds us that two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labor. We're here for you, and we encourage you to reach out to someone else too.
Let's pray together, as we would for each other. "Dear Heavenly Father, we come to You today for our friend who's hurting. Fill them with Your comfort, Lord. Give them strength to endure this trial. Remove the thoughts of suicide and self-harm, and remind them of the hope and future You have planned for them. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
We've found that Jesus is our rock in these storms. He's our Savior, our friend, our comforter. He's there for you too, always. If you're not sure about your relationship with Him, we'd love to talk more about that with you. He loves you so much, and He wants to be a part of your life.
