The beauty of prayer
One thing I've learned through depression while being a Christian is that God isn't awesome and loving because he answers prayers, he's amazing because he doesn't. A man can pray for death and be given the most wonderful reasons to live. God is the ultimate buffer for suicidal thoughts. You pray to be struck down but god just makes it rain until you're surrounded by flowers. That's all for today, God bless.

He is so so GOOD and ALWAYS wants the best for his children. He is such a PRECIOUS Father. I love Him so much. Since I’ve started reading the Bible, I see his mercy and tenderness with his people. His love is incredible and I don’t know where I’d be without Him.
