That moment when your thoughts are like walking through quick sand. When you walk alone, you may drown. Walk with a friend and a hand reaches out to save you.
If you need to hear this right now:
You are not unfixable.
You are not a lost cause.
You are not unlovable.
Your mind is lying to you.
You are so much more than you think.
today is the start of suicide prevention awareness week.
i encourage you to reach out to three people in your contacts and simply ask how they are doing.
an actual phone call is best.
push through the awkwardness.
chances are, you’ll both be inspired and encouraged.

How we sit with the broken matters. How we hug, how we squeeze hands, how we cry along with people is deeply significant. Sometimes we don't need to fix the pain, we just need to hold space for it and walk together towards the Cross. Stick with people, this matters.
It’s that time of night again. When things get hard. Anxiety goes up. Depression deepens. You’ve made it through these times before, you will make it through this one too. You’re not alone. Joy comes in the morning. New perspective, a new day. Look forward to the surprises.
