Proverbs 20:30 ‘Sometimes it takes a painful experience to make us change our ways’ Bringing to the suface, Letting my pain be a blessing, I can acknowledge it, I can release it once and for all. I can use it to serve someone elses need by talking, writing and filming it to make a difference Why………becasue it works, becasue if helps, because it makes us see that when we are hurting so bad and we reach out to help someone…..

As a young person I heard the phrase ‘keep the faith’. My conclusion then was; A religious statement that meant nothing….bible bashing Something you would say if you were a gospel singer What is faith anyway……just words…. When I experienced serious depression and anxiety in my life my world suddenly felt like it had crumbled around me. I remembered that phrase ‘keep the faith’ ……so I clung on to the thought that by having faith it could bring me…..
Why do I take time to talk? 1/ Take – to sort out what we want to say and to whom, when, why and a willingness to take that step 2/ Time – to give us clarity and space for our thoughts that need to be understood 3/ To – Who do I go to for guidance, help, healing and who can I trust 4/ Talk – is expression, release, out of my system and share with others to grow and live happily being ‘me’. …..
We want something else which can hardly be put into words–to be united with the beauty we see, to pass into it, to receive it into ourselves, to bathe in it, to become part of it. Most people, if they had really learned to look into their own hearts, would know that they do want, and want acutely, something that cannot be had in this world. (Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things…..
When we do things we tend to think of ourselves, number one! But if we changed our thinking and work more as a team, how much more proactive would we be in our society. At least it would paint a picture as a friendly existence with people wanting to help each other. To help each other reminds me of the biblical quote “the fruit of the vine and work of human hands”. Lending a helping hand is like…..
The New Testament Mathew 7:5 – “first take the log out of your eye and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye”. I am a big believer in what you learn is what you live. As parents and mentors we all rate ourselves highly when it comes to sharing our worldly advice and providing guidance to the young people in our lives. For this we then think it is fair to…..
Speaking as an advocate for mental illness I get to talk about my story. Once I have opened up to my experiences I find that many people become willing to share their stories so also get to listen to some amazing people. This connection is established when people feel that they will be supported and that an environment of trust existed. Recently I was amazed when I was spoken to by someone who was listening to my story only…..
When I put pen to paper it was my way of finding a release within to express my thoughts during the most traumatic time of my life. My diary was like having a friend that I could go back to: to read the pages of days gone by and to reflect on how I felt and why I wrote what I had written. I could escape into my own world and treated my diary as if it was my own…..
Mental illness does not discriminate, but the key to recovery is the same – we must open up the channels of trust and communication. This was no more evident than with the recent tragic death of American actor and comedian Robin Williams. Most people would imagine a celebrity’s life to be an example of “living the dream” but despite the perfect world that seemed to belong to Robin Williams, whatever was troubling to him was significant enough to…..
