If I’m not drawing near to You, I get stuck in a pattern of always wanting more. Please forgive me for this. Help me to fix my eyes on You, because You alone will never fail or forsake me.

The passing of a legendary, kind, loving, beautiful and successful young woman in the pageant industry took a piece of our hearts with her this past weekend as she jumped to her death, ending her life and leaving so many people who loved and admired her confused, angry, upset, outraged and awakened by the seriousness of depression and the dark reality of suicide.
