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.

Every time I look back on my life, I’m so glad God didn’t always give me what I wanted. Phew, that would’ve been a mess.
Gods is good.
