[Dark room, ominous silence; an attempt to put an end to all]
Bitter?
a little maybe,
that life seems unfair?
worse than that so...
what?
I'm a mess
beautiful yes?
buried in stress!
look, taste and see that the Lord is good- [Psalm 34:8]
you don't say, what with all that's happen? (She scoffs)
His grace is sufficient, [Titus 3 : 5]
oh really? (She sarcastically simpers)
His power manifests through your weakness,
I find that hard to believe,
if you would you'd be at peace,
how?
He is the prince of peace and is willing to unladen your heavy heart. [ Isaiah 9:6]
Shush...I have a lot of baggage but my heart will be just fine,
The baggage is from the enemy; the prince of this world and of darkness, [John 12]
I'm not the enemy!
then why have you accepted him in you?
what do you mean?
lawlessness, immorality, stealing and anger... [ 2 Timothy 3 : 1-7 ]
leave me alone! I know I know... that's exactly why I hate my life.
well, you shouldn't.
Easy for you to say...
it will be easy for you too if you rid the embittered heart,
then what?
accept Christ,
how will that help?
he'll rescue you from this bondage...
and?
He'll justify, redeem you and renew you. [Romans 5]
but...but I've done vile things. ( abashed)
see, the goodness of our Lord spoken by David and Paul. If you draw near him in repentance, He'll surely forgive you- [Isaiah 1:18]
I'll be faultless?
More than that, you'll be his child, to inherit is Kingdom.
I want...I want to receive this Christ sir.
by saying so, and believing in his sonship to God and his resurrection from the dead, you're already saved! (he smiles gladness in his heart) [Romans 9:10]
so what next?
Keep praying for his counsel through the Holy Spirit, to lead you in a righteous life. [Mathew 7]
But I'm afraid of what others will think about me.
You shouldn't be, isn't God greater than man? For He will not give you a spirit of fear but of power, love and sound mind. After all what is man but a breath in his nostrils?
You're right, I honestly feel much better sir, like the burden is off,
That's God's peace settling in you,
Oh thank you God! (whimpers)
Remember...read His word of truth, The Bible and share the good news!
Oh I will...I pray that...
continue so, for Faith pleases the Lord. Live as a child of the light. [Ephesians 2:8 , Hebrews 11 : 6]
Sir...? Sir?
(She's alone but not so much as she was before committing suicide)
***
Who do you think was talking to her?
Kindly read the scriptures quoted. God bless you all...spread the good news for we were so instructed. Mathew 28: 19-20
