So I thought about stopping in the middle of a local bridge and jumping off as I crossed it the other day. Its about 100ft high give or take. Later that evening my wife came home from work and showed me a news story on her phone. A guy jumped off that very bridge into the jagged rocks below sometime after I crossed it. My wife asked why someone would do that and I just said maybe the pain was just too much for him to bear any longer. I'm not really suicidal or anything. The thought just crossed my mind. I could end it all with a little leap. Well he did. That's where his pain ended. Maybe it was me and I skipped over to this timeline? Groundhog Day?
Pain is the fire within. Some seek to use it to forge themselves into something great, others wish only to melt away.
Life can be hard. Surrender to the will of God. You are something to be made or broken at His will. It may not feel like it makes sense at the time, but the act of breaking can be for the purpose of making you stronger in the long run. Intrusive thoughts can be a test, but God will never tempt you beyond your ability to bear.
