Light in the Darkness

There's so much evil and dark destruction in this world, and the beautiful thing about having Scripture as my guidebook is that it reveals how Jesus knows this, too, and yet remains faithful through it all.

And God continues to dispel the darkness through His children (those who believe in Him and pick up their cross to follow Christ). We each have a role to play in this world to keep the forces of evil at bay, and when we listen, God lets us know what those roles are.

For me, this is biblically counseling those I love and writing work that will help people bring their darkest thoughts and trauma to the feet of Jesus.

Right now, I'm taking that seriously through writing my book of poetry, 100 Portraits (retitled Snapped), and a new project I'm working on called Mental Health from a Biblical Perspective. The latter is a free PDF resource that will break down a list of common mental health terms and ideas as viewed through the eyes of Scripture. It will (hopefully) be beneficial to those of us who are currently struggling mentally and need help discerning what God says about our struggles versus what the world says.

If you'd like to see what I've already published, be sure to check out 10 Things I Wish I Knew When I Started Following Jesus and Bible Study Resources for Beginners. Both will (hopefully) strengthen your relationship with God through His Son. (All my other free books and resources can be found here).

So, question: Where do you feel God leading you to shed light in a world that so desperately needs it?
