Too often Christians deal with the pain like an atheist, as if God were not involved. We don’t take our lives, but we live the rest of our lives as an empty, depressed, defeated soul. We find no pleasure in living. The minimal tasks become burdens. We are of little use to God or others. We mope around with long faces and oftentimes self-medicate ourselves with chemicals, spending addictions and withdrawal from others. I think it goes without saying that this lifestyle shows no faith in God’s good providence, brings Him dishonor and results in a miserable life.
