Suicide

I get why people commit suicide. Perhaps

because death is 'freedom for the soul?' Isn't it relief from this torturous world?

Suicide....is not so. Suicide is robbery.

I have this one thing against suicide, a timely death is a reward to the faithful Servant. Suicide is a cold embrace for a broken heart. It is not peace to a soul who cannot find it here.

Death is not a tool of ours to manipulate as we see fit, it is not the best choice in a hard situation. Death is not a "Hmm...might as well" decision.

Death in God's hands, the right hands, is the last act of a gracious God in the life of a created being on earth. It is the recall of envoys sent out only for a time, it is the first sign of God's greatest commendation "Well done, thou good and faithful servant." It is, a welcoming into our Father's arms Forever.

But as per usual

every good thing the Lord Gives the devil tries to latch on to and pervert.

So then we have suicide, the deception that death in our hands, on our time is better Than death in daddy's hands and on his

time. The deception that life cannot continue in The face of whatever obstacle is blocking our already narrow human vision.

Believe me when I tell you suicide is NEVER the answer it seems to be. It is the Devil's attempt to turn God's good death into a tool to steal the very thing That Jesus came and died to keep.....

YOU
