A Word of Wisdom
Depression can be beat, sparrow can be beat, defeat can be beat, loneliness can be beat. All you have to do is start praising him right where you are and watch God move instantly. You will quickly forget why you were feeling down.
When you just don't feel like it, put a praise on it and watch the instant energy boost. Remember worshipping inn your alone time makes it easy to praise him all the time.
Be blessed and encouraged,

Why Is?
Why is it that when you have a calling on your life you continue to run?
Why is it that when you are connected to the right people you let them slip away?
Why is it that when you run from what God has in store for you? It's hard to get away.
Why is it that the highest mountain is easy to climb?
Why is it the widest ocean is easy to cross?
God opens doors for us to move swiftly through, but gives us the opportunity to make the decision to move forward or not.
We the people of impure souls continue to disappoint God by choosing the easy way.
I learned that any thing worth having takes work and time, the kingdom of God is promised to us.
Give God his praise and his glory for he has given us the ultimate sacrifice.
For that your "Why is" will be "Because".
I stopped running because He first loved me.
I stopped letting good connections slip away because He promise me guidance.
I embraced what He had in stored for me because it was meant for me.
I climbed the highest mountain because He gave me strength.
I crossed the widest ocean because He gave me endurance.
Let God guide you to your victory, so your "Why Is" can be "Because".
Be blessed and encouraged

Emotional Ride
Alone trying to find myself
lost and confused.
Searching for who I am
and what I've become.
Some days I'm high off life
other days the life is sucked out of me.
Learning to love me again is
not simple as it sounds.
Depressed because this ride has me
lightheaded.
A ride that should be fun but yet
confusing.
See I lost myself in a relationship
giving all of me with no return.
Once my love was gone there
was to be no access granted.
A roller coaster ride from hell with
a burning sensation within.
It continued to burn due to a
bleeding heart filled with anger.
Now here I am still riding trying
to get back who I am;
But not until I find who I am.

Unknowing Suicide
Suicide does not always come in the obvious ways of deliberate overdosing, shooting yourself, our jumping from a bridge or window. Many of us have a had thoughts of suicide but would probably never have the nerve to act upon it. We have moments where we sit back and reflect on the negative things past and present in our lives and become a little depressed about it.The small things in life can cause thoughts of depression, for example some people do not like some of their physical attributes and it causes them shame, hence depression forms. While you have others who feel less than because of their financial status and so forth.
When we as people continue to deal with the daily stresses of life we're going to have some ups and downs. During the process of the downs we have to be able to communicate with someone we trust to keep us encourage. When we don't have a supportive system in place we become depress and that leads to destruction. We go through life doing things that make us feel good not knowing it is probably something bad for us.
Personally for me I was on the verge of suicide, not in the typical sense but indirectly. I began drinking when I was 14 years old, that was the beginning of my self-destruction. I continue that journey for over 20 years, it was destroying my body on the inside. That was not enough so I began to smoke marijuana that was laced with other chemicals to ease what I now know was pain. I continue to live a destructive life but the drinking and the marijuana was not enough so I became very sexually active. The many sex acts and partners I had was also killing me because I was jeopardizing my health with reckless sex with random people. The purpose of me sharing apart of my story is because like many people I was searching for something that was missing in my life. During the search many of us are committing suicide in a slow process by destroying the life the was so preciously and miraculously giving to us by God.
We have to understand why we are doing some of the things that we continue to do that is obviously killing us. Is it because of past abuse or could it be loneliness? We have to identify where we are lacking in our lives to improve our quality of life. As we identify why we have the weaknesses, we can then take the necessary steps to heal. Talk to a preacher, teacher, counselor, or someone who understands. Redemption is possible before your destruction becomes fatal.
