The world is not impressed when Christians experience a suicide and have their ultimate joy depleted in sake of living in sorrow and using God as a teddy bear for comfort. The world is impressed when Christians experience a suicide and say, “Jesus is enough. He is my shelter. He will give me hope. I will cling to him. And even in tragedy and despair, he is utterly satisfing and I will rejoice, for he is good.”
I totally agree.
I have gone through 3 suicides in my life, 2 as a non-believer and one as a believer, and the Hope that Christ supplies is hard to believe until you experience it.
Amen, Stacy.
By the way, the Jesus Camp review is forthcoming, haha. I got a “little” sidetracked. But I watched it last weekend and am working on it!
