I haven't "drowned" yet, but neither do I consider myself "free." I'm glad your depression is over. Also, thanks for the blessings.<br /><br />Peace.The Missing Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08804205254302399647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4616518251349649602.post-250558975168170172013-05-17T08:05:55.969-07:002013-05-17T08:05:55.969-07:00Wow.

I just wanted to wish you well on your journey, and tell you, I wish I had seen this blog years ago.

I was a little surprised ...Greetings, origlangyaw.<br /><br />I was a little surprised to see a comment here. I wrote this particular post 18 months ago and a lot has happened since then.<br /><br />But let me back up.<br /><br />If you read the "About Me" section on this blog, you'll realize that "Jonathan Cyfer" is an alter ego. I blog here (and tweet on twitter) to express a certain side of my personality. Like most people, I have a "dark" side to who I am; a side that, despite all the good things in my life, tends toward feeling blue and needs to cry out once in awhile. That's part of what I do here.<br /><br />It sort of relieves the rest of my existence, and the people in it, from having to put up with my moodiness, at least for the most part. I can say things here that wouldn't be understood or accepted in the rest of my life. <br /><br />You seem like a nice and kind person who is extending the gospel of Christ to another lost soul in the hope that another person will be saved by Jesus. I thank you for that and I appreciate the offer to email you. While I'm not going to get into a lot of details about my spiritual life, I will tell you that I have one and that I strive to draw close to God daily. I also want to say that even with a strong spiritual and religious life, occasionally, a person can still get down.<br /><br />I have a couple of friends, a married couple, who are strong Christians. They are also both struggling with cancer and believe me, their faith doesn't mean that they don't sometimes become angry and depressed and scared. Jesus doesn't keep you from feeling terrified or depressed, he just makes sure to hang in their with you during the process.<br /><br />Thanks for the compassion. As you can see, it took 18 months for someone to come along and express those feelings. Sadly, that sort of kindness of the spirit is rare.<br /><br />Blessings.The Missing Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08804205254302399647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4616518251349649602.post-27504994799034485882011-11-12T03:38:08.879-08:002011-11-12T03:38:08.879-08:00hello,
I write because I feel you. also because I ...hello,<br />I write because I feel you. also because I know the WAY out. it's not a method, or a technique, or medicine. it's a Name.<br />there's only one Name under heaven that is above every other name, whether its the name of a great man, or a nation, or a catastrophe, or a disease, or of anything else.<br />The Name is JESUS CHRIST.<br />Call on Him right now. He is able to do beyond what we can ask or imagine. At the sound of His name, every demon, even Satan flees. You ask, "Do I have the ability to escape from bondage alone?" The answer, sadly, is NO. No man is able to save himself from the power of sin and death.<br />Sickness and death are the results of sin.<br />But the good news is that Jesus came to destroy all the works of Satan and he is able to give anyone the freedom he sorely needs.<br />Your pain, the pressure, the darkness will end, when Jesus starts His work in your life.<br />I urge you, right now, ask for God's forgiveness for all your sins and invite Jesus Christ into your heart. He will respond and come to save you and change you.<br />I know this is true because he changed me, too.<br />God loves you more than anyone can love you.<br />If you need some more information on how to allow God to change you, eMail me at langyaw(AT)gmail(DOT)com.<br />God bless you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
