Are You Discouraged?
The COVID-19 Pandemic has hit the globe, bringing the world to a crawl.
According to pharmacytimes.com, in an article titled, Research Finds Increased Levels of Suicidal Thoughts, Psychological Trauma During COVID-19 Pandemic.
“Researchers surveyed 10,368 adults from across the country to better understand the sociological and psychological effects of the pandemic…. The second study focused on suicidal thoughts, behaviors, and actions….In that study, investigators found that 15% of all respondents were categorized as high risk for suicide.
God loves you and definitely has a plan for your life. That is why Jesus gave His life to secure your salvation. Reach out to God today, do not delay!
If God be for you, who can be against you?
On a symptom assessment of suicide risk, Black, Hispanic, and Native American respondents scored higher than their counterparts, as well as families with children, unmarried respondents, and younger respondents. Compounding factors such as food insecurity and physical health symptoms also increased the risk of suicide.”
For years William Wilberforce pushed Britain’s Parliament to abolish slavery. Discouraged, he was about to give up. His elderly friend, John Wesley, heard of it and from his deathbed called for pen and paper.
With trembling hand, Wesley wrote: “Unless God has raised you up for this very thing, you will be worn out by the opposition of men and devils. But if God be for you, who can be against you? Are all of them stronger than God?
