This Powerful Practice Helped Me As I Cared for my loved one struggling against Suicide

THIS is what I had to do when fighting against suicide for my loved one.

đź“Ś I had to find pause, respite, and hope in the words found in the Bible.

The topic of suicide is heavy… I needed power beyond myself to help me as I cared for my loved one struggling with suicidal thoughts and intention. It was an ongoing battle with ups and downs, and I couldn’t do it alone,

I had to find strength in the power that God could offer.

It can be easy to know the Bible brings comfort, but it can be so difficult to apply that knowledge in the moment when we desperately need comfort, encouragement, & strength.

Pausing. Finding respite. Strength. Hope. 

Finding Hope from Jesus.

Finding TRUTH to cling to in the midst of heavy battles for life and against suicide is necessary.

Here’s powerful truth for you to cling to today:

đź“Ś “I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” 

This is from Isaiah 41:10b NIV

The 1st part of the verse says: 

đź“Ś “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God.” 

Isaiah 41:10a

➡️ Read over both parts of the verse again. 

God says He will be with you. He will strengthen and help you. He will uphold you. I

am so thankful we are not in it alone.
